Hi everyone! I'm Mei, and I'm going to Seoul for a week next month. I was already planning to do some makeup shopping, and I'm getting more and more excited! I've heard that the skincare experience in Korea is really different, so I'd like to ask if anyone has any must-try products?

My skin is on the dry side, and I've been focusing on hydration and skin barrier repair lately. I'd especially like to try some of the popular skincare treatments and products in Korea right now. However, I'm still a bit confused about the specific prices and procedures, so I'd like to hear about your experiences first. Has anyone had any skincare treatments in Myeongdong or Gangnam? I feel like there should be a lot of options there?

Also, I'd like to ask if I need to do any research beforehand? Will language be a problem? I barely speak any Korean, haha, but I can download translation apps. If you have any recommendations for areas or experiences to share, I'd love to hear them! Ready to embark on my Seoul skincare adventure! 😄
