Korean Haul

Maggie and I recently went to Seoul, Korea to visit friends, eat food and enjoy the sights. Those were our original intentions, but we also ended up discovering Korean beauty and skincare brands and went a little nuts!!

Our first day in Seoul!

L~R: Etude House, Holika Holika and The Face Shop
Maggie found shiny shoes in Hongdae

Similarly to Japan, Korean beauty and skin care products are adorably packaged which makes them even more appealing. Meongdong city is mecca for cosmetic junkies like ourselves and while we were walking past rows and rows of shops, the shop staff would call out to us in Japanese asking us to come in. Each time we would be given a small basket with a free sample inside of either cream, a face pack or cotton pads. Half the time we would just walk in just to get the free sample lol ~

Day 1: Face packs and serum from Nature Republic and lip creme from Holika Holika
