| - I went into this store not knowing anything about it I even asked the girl if it was related to The Body Shop as it has the same logo feel and branding. As soon as I got closer to the products and saw they were in Korean, however, I quickly realized what kind of store it was, but not before the girl rudely said "No, it's Korean" and then went back to her conversation with her friend who was on her break from another store (I gathered from their convo.) Talk away wasting an opportunity to help someone who's interested in the line you're getting paid to sell. So then I saw another girl and I asked if they had anything for acneic skin and she legit couldn't answer the question. She had no idea what the products did, and even tried telling me that a gel moisturizer is thicker than the lotion, when I was literally testing them on my hand and could tell the gel was much lighter (as they are meant to be.) Then she took off, and left me to to my own devices. I found a green tea serum that felt nice on the skin and was going to purchase it (the prices are reasonable-comparable to The Body Shop, actually, although they have better sales), but ended up walking out empty handed as I came in looking for a complete skin care regime.
I will say the branding is really cute and clean and eye catching. I have no idea if the products really work or if this is just a bandwagon to the Korean beauty trend with gimmicky products (like seriously, some of them have a 15 product routine filled with pseudo-science claims) , but that's only because the service is hugely lacking here.
