This is my first time in Seoul trying out K-beauty, does anyone have any tips? 🇰🇷✨

Hi everyone! I'm Thu, and I'm going to Seoul next month and I'm super hyped to experience K-beauty firsthand. I've watched tons of YouTube videos but I still feel lost, not knowing where to start haha.

I'm curious if you have any recommendations for places to visit for skincare or beauty salons? I've heard Gangnam and Myeongdong are very crowded, but I'm not sure if it's worth it. And if I want to try some skincare experiences like facials or something similar, what should I prepare before booking an appointment?

Also, I'd like to ask what kinds of products you usually buy when you go to Seoul? I've heard K-beauty products there are cheaper and fresher, but I don't want to end up buying something that doesn't suit my skin. Does anyone have any experience with this? I have combination skin, prone to acne, so I'm a little worried. Please share your experiences! 💚
