Online Stores for Korean Skincare & Makeup

I've included some of the most popular online kbeauty stores below, typically it takes a while for some of these stores for shipping, but usually you might find better prices than Amazon. Also beware of third party sellers on Amazon because people have purchased/found fake products on there before!

YesStyle

YesStyle has probably the biggest selection of both korean and japanese makeup and skincare products (as well as clothes/lifestyle items, if you can’t find a brand or product from Amazon or other shops they will likely have it (they carry Beauty of Joseon, COSRX, Isntree, Canmake, Etude House and Pony Makeup to name a few)!

Shipping is usually pretty long for me personally, at maybe 3 weeks or so but they usually have 10%-15% off deals and flash sales so sometimes prices are cheaper than Amazon.

StyleVana

This has been my go-to online option for when I can’t find something in store or online, or for when I’m simply looking for the best, competitive prices.

StyleVana provides authentic Korean and Japanese skincare and makeup products worldwide, and based on my experience, they have the same products, if not more than the options above, with the best pricing. 

They also have: a Sale section, a Flash Deal section that are continuously rotating additional sales on products. If you’re looking to buy your top products in bulk you can sometimes find set deals on sale as well. (i.e. the SKIN1004 Sunscreen I mentioned in my all time favourites post x4).

Shipping

Free US Shipping on orders over $48 USD (4 - 9 Business Days)

Soko Glam

90 brands but some are Western brands. Includes most of the popular mid-range to affordable brands as well as their own Then I Met You, but are also missing obvious ones like Laneige.

https://sokoglam.com/

Ships to 45+ countries but free shipping is only available in the US for orders $35+. Certain countries will have duties included in the total cost. 1-7 business days.

Via email and social media, response time is 1-2 business days. Offers free consultation service. 2.7 rate. It's not priced as competitively but you get much faster shipping time if you’re local.

And that's it so far! How was the list? Did I miss anything? If so drop it in the comments below! 🙂
