Korean Skincare in Everyday Stores?!? NO WAY...

Korean products are slowly sneaking their way into my favorite stores!!! I love it! Since I've been recently introduced to Korean skincare products, certain brand names are starting to stick out to me. Last night I discovered that Forever 21 sells Holika Holika products and this morning I came across Peripera products on Birchbox! These were two of the brands that I was interested in sampling. Now that they offer it in more familiar stores I don't have to go through the hassle of Korean stores and long delivery waits.

After I saw Shu An's video from Tried and Tested, her review of the adorable Peripera Cushion Blusher left a great impression on me and I've been keeping my eyes out for the chance to buy this whenever I stopped by the Korean stores in Chinatown. But when I saw the same product on Birchbox's Instagram page this morning, I was ecstatic. Birchbox now offers a few items from the Peripera line and for the cushion blushers Birchbox carries all three available shades!

Have you also heard that Target is now going to carry the Korean skincare line, Laneige?! Your whole skincare routine would be a one stop shop at Target while you grab your groceries and Starbucks.

After doing some of my Korean skincare routine research I knew I had my heart set on trying the Laneige line first. I'm so excited now that I don't have to go out of my way to try this product. And to top it off, Target's website offers a $21 value Laneige Advanced Hydration Trial Kit - 4 pieces for only $10!!!

The kit includes sample sizes of:

• multi cleanser
• water bank serum
• water bank moisture cream
• water sleeping mask

The best thing about having these popular Korean skincare favorites at our everyday stores is that all the sales from the store will apply to these products! So that trumps me trying so hard to mix and match the prices from the Korean department stores that ship from Korea. And for the cushion blushers, I could even put my Birchbox points towards it, that way I get it for FREE!
