"Founded in 2016, Beauty & Seoul launched when there were very few options in getting Korean skincare in the UK. Now the UK's leading K-Beauty curator, the aim of the site is to make Korean skincare more mainstream and to promote the idea that skincare is selfcare."

"“Koreans take their skincare very seriously and are always trying to attain a flawless complexion,” says Maree Kinder, founder of Beauty & Seoul. “As such, skincare companies in Korea invest huge amounts in research and development to come up with the best formulations for this demanding market. In fact, industry experts suggest that the formulations are so advanced they are around 10-12 years of Western counterparts.”"

Testimonials

"My daughter loves her skin care and the majority of her routine is made up of products from Korea. Living in the UK, this website is a life saver! (And a money saver) My daughter loves the brands descriptions as it comes from someone who has a clear understanding of each product, as well as a passion for what they are selling.
The prices are reasonable, the shipping is cheap and the product range is perfect for us. Would highly recommend!"

"I placed my order on Thursday at 4.50pm, received an email on Friday at 4.10pm to say my package was ready for the next delivery slot and would be sent on the next working day. Due to the weekend my parcel came Monday at 12.30pm. I am really happy with how quick this arrived (I had the free estimated 48hrs from dispatch delivery as my order came to over £25). My order came in good condition and included three reasonably sized free samples which I'm excited to try. I love the layout of this website, it's simple to navigate and I like the personal aspects such as Maree's blog and when you click on a product it says why she likes it. I will be repurchasing from this website as I have received great service and I'm happy I've finally found a UK website that stocks more than one Korean brand without the stress of having to worry about customs fees!"
