You're in Korea. Here's what that's actually worth.
Store locations and opening hours are everywhere already, so this page skips them. What we can tell you instead is which products you cannot get shipped home, which ones cost a fraction of the export price, and the Korean name to look for — because the shelf labels are not in English.

Finding it on the shelf
Every product on this site carries its Korean name underneath the English one. That smaller line is what is actually printed on the shelf label — screenshot it, or show it to a member of staff. English product names are often our own rendering rather than anything the brand prints, and searching for one in store will not get you far.
Before you put it in the basket
A cheap product that fights the rest of your routine is not a saving. Two things worth thirty seconds on your phone in the aisle:
- Check it against your routine — retinoids, acids and vitamin C all want to be alone. Adding a third strong active is the usual way a haul goes wrong.
- Look up an ingredient — the box is in Korean, but the ingredient list is standardised. Search any name you can read off it.
We don't carry store locations, stock or tax-refund procedure — we have no data on any of it, and guessing would undermine the parts we can actually stand behind.
