Needed a cheap serum

I needed a new serum after my last one ran out and I didn't want to pay full price somewhere else. Found a good one here for a good price and it's been great for my dry patches. Delivery took about four days, which was fine. Would order again for the value alone.

quick order on my lunch

Needed a hair mask in a hurry so ordered on my lunch break. It came the next day which was a nice surprise. Smells amazing and my hair feels so soft already. Checkout was quick on the app, saved my card, no faff at all.

Cheaper than the other site

Compared with the other site I usually use this was a bit cheaper on the same serum, which is why I tried it. The first thing I noticed was the shipping cost, which was a little more than I expected for a small order. Product is good and it came in decent time.

cheaper than the high street

Compared to buying the same moisturiser in Boots it's a fair bit cheaper once you add in the delivery, so that's the main reason I went with them. The site was easy enough to use though I did have to re-enter my card details twice. Arrived in good nick and the product works as expected. Would be a five if the checkout was a bit quicker.

Needed a gift quickly

I needed a birthday present for my sister and the shops near me had nothing decent left. Ordered on the Thursday and it came Friday, which saved me. Nothing wrong with it, the set was nice, just wish the prices were a touch lower than they are.

Tried a few sites first

Biggest thing for me was that the prices on the Korean cosmetics were lower than the other sites I checked, even before shipping. I'd compared a few options first and kept coming back to this one. The checkout took a minute to load on my phone but then it was fine. Products came in a box with a bit of tissue and everything I ordered was there. Would happily order again for the skincare.

lip tint was a good buy

Got the lip tint and a cleanser in the same order and both are doing their job. The tint is pigmented without feeling heavy, and the cleanser doesn't leave my skin tight. Arrived in two days and everything was wrapped properly. Good for the money.

Needed something gentle

I needed a gentle cleanser for my skin after my doctor recommended a change in products. The range here made it easy to find something suitable, and I was grateful for the clear descriptions. The order was delivered promptly and carefully wrapped, which I appreciated greatly. A very satisfactory service.

Sunscreen for the holiday

Took a chance on a Korean sunscreen for our trip to Spain and it's the first one that hasn't left me greasy under makeup. Ordered on the Monday, arrived the Thursday, which was fine. I've been using SPF for years and I know what I like, so this one has earned a repeat order.

Tried a few before settling

I looked at a few places before settling on this one, and the verdict for me is that it's the best of the lot for skincare. Prices were fair and the sets were well put together. Delivery was prompt and the parcel was carefully packed. Glad I chose it.

Good value for the money

Good value, plain and simple. The shampoo cost less than I'd pay in the chemist and the delivery was quick enough. Ordering was straightforward and I didn't have to create an account to check out. Would buy again.

Compared it to the chemist

I compared it to my usual chemist and this was a fair bit cheaper for the same moisturiser, which was a nice surprise. I have been a customer for a good while now and this order was no different. Packed carefully and arrived when it said it would. Happy with it.

The sheet masks are ace

Honestly the thing that got me was how fast the parcel turned up, I ordered after work and it was on my doorstep the next morning. The sheet masks are proper good too, my skin feels like it's been hydrated for a week. Will definitely be ordering again, the app makes it dead easy to reorder my usual stuff.

First order, mixed bag

Ordered a face mask set as my first order and the product itself is decent. The main problem was it came two days later than the site said, and the box was a bit squashed. Support sorted a replacement for one damaged mask, though it took a few emails. Might give it another go.

Sheet masks, no complaints

Ended up with a pretty solid mask pack after reading loads of reviews, and the verdict is they're the real deal. Anyone who knows K beauty will spot the good stuff straight away, and the range here is wide. The packaging keeps everything sealed and the order came in under three days. Nothing to add really.

Been ordering for years

What stands out after years of ordering from them is how consistent the range stays, my usual shampoo is always in stock. The only niggle this time was a small dent on the outer box, the product was fine though. Delivery is normally spot on and the site has got easier to use over time.

bought the cushion foundation

Picked up the cushion foundation on a whim after seeing it all over my feed and I'm so glad I did. The shade match in the drop down menu was spot on, and it sits well under my mask without going cakey. Packaging was tidy and the whole order took about two days to arrive. Bit of a bargain for what it is too.

Sunscreen order arrived fine

I ordered a sunscreen for my husband and myself, which arrived in good order. The website was easy enough to navigate, though I did find the search a little slow. Delivery took about five working days, which was perfectly acceptable. I'd buy from them again.

better than the usual brand

I have always bought my face cream from the pharmacy but this one was noticeably cheaper for the same size. The ingredients list was clear and I could read the whole thing without my glasses on the small print. The item arrived in a sturdy box and I've been using it every evening since. Lovely to find something good value.

Very pleased indeed

I would say this is an excellent place to buy skincare, and I have been a customer for some time now. The order arrived well packed and the customer service team answered my question about a sensitive-skin range promptly. I found the staff polite and helpful, and I shall certainly continue to shop here.
