I was in South Korea over winter break and was released into the Myeong-dong shopping area at the end of the trip. About 2/3 of the items are from Olive Young (marked with OY), the rest were picked up at various other skincare shops in the area. All Mask Story and Tem Tem are the only ones I remember the name of 😅
I prefered shopping in the other skincare stores over OY, the selection was a bit more curated towards having a full selection of a brand rather than what is just popular online right now (which is what OY seemed like). They were also a lot less overwhelming and were arranged in a way that made more sense to me? Less people, less stimuli, less random open spaces. Still, OY had a lot of what I wanted and they sell multiple packs and items with refills. So it’s a balance I suppose.
Skin type is dry, sensitive, congestion/acne-prone in a fairly cold and dry winter environment.
List of Items: (image 1)
ma:nyo bifida biome aqua barrier cream
Dr.FORHAIR folligen scalp pack (OY)
Aestura a-cica 365 soft calming mask pad (RP) (OY)
Mediheal watermide moisture pad
Mediheal collagen ampoule pad (OY)
Mediheal madecasssoside blemish pad (OY)
