Black Friday is done, but many stores have Black Week or prepare for Cyber Monday. StyleKorean is still having lots of great deals so here is my tiny shopping guide for Black Friday
This post contains affiliate links(**)
Are offers during Black Friday worth it?
Every year shops are spamming us with Black Friday offers - this year some shops like Beautynetkorea started the season in late October. Some offers are worth it, but before you spend all your money think if you need an item. If you plan to order items from abroad for a gift - think twice, usually, Black Friday packages arrive very late - up to 3 months due to a huge number of purchases - during 11.11 lots of people ordered stuff from Aliexpress and at least my local post always have troubles with time since they can't get through every order to put it in a computer.
Tip for Black Friday
How to save money? Some stores are changing prices before the actual Black Friday for higher to then make them lower so you feel like you pay less even if you pay the actual price. I always make a small shopping list before I buy products during sales. I try to compare shipping prices and prices of items I want to buy to choose the best option available. You can always check if google has a copy of the page from a couple of days ago - this way you can track the changes in prices.
Set prices to USD
A thing I found out later and wrote about on my Instastory (here's the link to my IG) - in stores like Stylevana or YesStyle the difference between USD and EUR or even more local currencies like HUF, PLN, CZK, NOK, UAH, SEK, etc the prices might have even bigger difference so when you shop online - check which currency has the best exchange rate and if it's worth more to pay in USD than your local currency.

Beauty Of Joseon Ginseng Essence Water
Panax Ginseng Root Water, Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Propanediol, Niacinamide, 1,2-Hexanediol, Water, Hydroxyacetophenone, Glyceryl Glucoside, Xanthan Gum, Panthenol, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Allantoin, Adenosine, Panax Ginseng Callus Culture Extract, Theobroma Cacao(Cocoa) Extract, Dextrin, Glucose, Panax Ginseng Root Extract, Panax Ginseng Berry Extract, Lactobacillus/Panax Ginseng Root Extract Ferment Filtrate, Sodium Hyaluronate, Ethylhexylglycerin, Disodium EDTA
This is definitely a product that is going to last for a long time. I have to admit that I don't see any magic result with this product, but there's one reason why I love it besides the fact that ginseng products are my weakness - no essential oils, no scent ingredients, just pure heaven for sensitive skin after retinol treatment. Even if this product has natural extracts, it's super mild for sensitive skin and it's quite a cheap option since a small amount is enough to cover your entire face.

Heimish All Clean Balm Mandarin
Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, PEG-20 Glyceryl Triisostearate, Synthetic Wax, PEG-8 Isostearate, Citrus Unshiu Fruit Oil, Citrus Junos Fruit Oil, Citrus Reticulata (Tangerine) Fruit Extract (0,01 ppm), 1,2-Hexanediol, Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 Dimethicone, Artemisia Vulgaris Oil, Citrus Aurantium Amara (Bitter Orange) Leaf/Twig Oil, Curcuma Longa (Turmeric) Root Extract, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Tocopheryl Acetate, Litsea Cubeba Fruit Oil, Laurus Nobilis Leaf Extract, Melia Azadirachta Flower Extract, Moringa Oleifera Seed Oil, Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract, Eclipta Prostrata Extract, Glycerin, Corallina Officinalis Extract, Melia Azadirachta Bark Extract, Ocimum Sanctum Leaf Extract, Water, Oleyl Alcohol, Octyldodecanol, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Ceramide NP, Butylene Glycol, Phytosphingosine, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Carica Papaya (Papaya) Fruit Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Candida Bombicola/Glucose/Methyl Rapeseedate Ferment, Glycine Soja (Soybean) Sterols, Tocopherol, Vaccinium Macrocarpon (Cranberry) Fruit Extract
The All Clean Balm original version is another cult cleanser, right next to Banila Co cleansers. The new version of Heimish All Clean Balm Mandarin is not very different. We have the same mousse waxy texture, but the scent is even better than in the original version. It removes makeup easily, but you have to use it on its own first and then add water to emulsify the cleanser. It doesn't leave any fog in my eyes which is a benefit for me. I can't say anything bad about it. I enjoy it more than the previous version.

Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask is not a new product for me, but the Mint Choco version is a version which I haven't tried before. The scent is so nice, it's my favourite version. It smells a bit like a mint, but the hint of chocolate is there. Mint Choco version has one important benefit, it cools down your lips. It's an effect which I can enjoy all day long, no matter if it's summer or winter. I guess during the summer you might enjoy it more.

Missha New Artemisia Pack Foam Cleanser
Water, Kaolin, Sodium Cocoyl Glycinate, Glycerin, Bentonite, Myristic Acid, Potassium Hydroxide, Lauric Acid, Stearic Acid, Dipropylene Glycol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Bambusa Arundinacea Stem Powder, Artemisia Annua Extract, Glycol Distearate, Centella Asiatica Extract, Ficus Carica (Fig) Fruit Extract, Ulmus Davidiana Root Extract, Amaranthus Caudatus Seed Extract, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Citrus Nobilis (Mandarin Orange) Peel Oil, Juniperus Virginiana Oil, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Oil, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Titanium Dioxide, Magnesium Aluminum Silicate, Chromium Oxide Greens, Artemisia Princeps Leaf Powder, Disodium EDTA, Butylene Glycol, Ceramide NP, Hydroxyacetophenone, Ethylhexylglycerin, CI 77492, CI 77499, Linalool, Limonene
I enjoy Missha Artemisia Pack Foam Cleanser a lot because it's a 2-in-1 product - you can use it instead of a cleanser or as a delicate clay mask. For acne-prone skin, this product has a cleansing and calming effect - super useful when your acne goes wild. I have to admit, I can't imagine using it as a cleanser but as a mask - I love it. You can apply it with your finger or silicone brush. It's not easy to remove a clay mask, but it's rare to find a mask like Missha Artemisia Pack Foam Cleanser that doesn't dry on your skin so it won't make your skin dehydrated.
Missha New Artemisia Pack Foam Cleanser costs $11.40/150ml on Stylekorean**. You can read a full review on Kherblog.

Vitamin C + tranexamic acid? Yes, please! Skin1004 is using a patented solution - MadeWhite, by the name I expect that this is a mix of madecassoside with another powerful ingredient. Overall, it's a nice serum and bottle has 100ml!
