[@robertadaniel3676]

Wow😮It’s really nice to see everything that is available. I could get lost in this store for hours. So much to look at and choose from. You must have really enjoyed this visit. Thanks for sharing your experience with us.

[@nails.boxofhope]

seriously! I was staying nearby so I broke my shopping up into a few trips (each lasting like 2 hours hahaha). it was nice to see with my eyes rather than opening 50 different internet tabs to compare 😂 thank you for watching 🤍

[@linzzzanity]

4:07 I'm drooling at that nail sticker wall.

[@yesenianieves7832]

I wouldn’t have any self control in that store. So many pretty colors in polishes and the stickers, charms WOW😍

[@nails.boxofhope]

yesss! & it's even harder to resist when you're in holiday mode 😭😂 everything was so pretty!!

[@marleenkuba5129]

You were in nail heaven 😍🥰

[@nails.boxofhope]

yesss! 🥰

[@ambarrose]

I would be so overwhelmed.

[@nails.boxofhope]

@@ambarrose yeah, it’s a lot to navigate😭🤣

[@brianamcintyre6988]

God bless you for making a directions video😭😭😭🙌🙌🫶🫶😭 i hope to go there one day soon also how much was your trip if you dont mind me asking you should make a shorts abt it 😳

[@nails.boxofhope]

@@brianamcintyre6988 hahaha right, I kept going up and down escalators in my Korea vlog because I was in the wrong part of the building 🤣😭 glad to save others the confusion haha. Hope you can visit soon too!! my trip was to Korea & Japan so a bit difficult calculate individually but I’ll cover a bit more on pricing in my upcoming nail haul video!

[@brianamcintyre6988]

@ thats so cool!!! Excited for more videos like these 😆😆🤍🙏

[@t.athyna]

this is like a dream shop, I wish we had something like this in France.

[@nails.boxofhope]

right! same here, I wish there was something like this in England (but maybe it's best for our wallets that there isn't hahaha) 😭

[@janetofshegatherswellness5403]

I wish I was Into nails when I lived there 🤦🏽‍♀️ then I was into pens stickers and stationery. Which there’s plenty of that too. But dang such a missed opportunity lmboooooo 😅

[@nails.boxofhope]

@@janetofshegatherswellness5403 ooh nooo, picked up stickers but a different kind of sticker 😭 do you travel back often? Hoping you can visit one day soon! 🫶🏻

[@janetofshegatherswellness5403]

@ I was born in Japan and lived in Korea as well but I was an army kid so it was free (for me anyways 😂) so I haven’t been back in some time bc I’m our families (my hubby is an army kid too - born in Germany) have retired 🥹. They deserve to be retired. But free and discounted overseas trips are priceless lmboooo literally!!

[@melissageorge2915]

This is my dream!! To travel to South Korea just to shop for nail supplies!!! Did you find that they are cheaper than we can get them for here in the US? ❤❤❤

[@nails.boxofhope]

yesss, it felt unreal shopping in person and not through a screen 🤣 yes, things were generally 30-50% cheaper than online (though there'll be import taxes/fees etc so it makes sense!)☺

[@Luci3113..]

(PLEASE DON’T BASH ME FOR THIS) Maybe it’s just me but…I FEEL LIKE KOREA HAS WAY MORE OPTIONS AND A BETTER VARIETY OF NAIL SUPPLIES THAN AMERICA….

[@nails.boxofhope]

I get you! maybe because Korean brands innovate so quickly whereas American styles tend to stay current for longer 🧐 deffo enjoy products from American brands too though like Apres tips, MelodySusie lamps etc. I'm grateful international shipping exists so we can buy from everywhere 😂

[@evilbookworm]

Ahhhh I have some of the stickers you picked out so I feel like I made good decisions getting them. My mom was visiting korea recently and I was going to ask her to go to this store but I thought it would be overwhelming for her bc I didn’t know what brands and collections they would have in stock. I’m glad I didn’t ask her to go, there’s soooooo much stuff she would have been confused.

[@nails.boxofhope]

@@evilbookworm ooh! Where did you pick up the stickers from? think I can pick up Tomomi from Temu but wondering if somewhere else stocks them 👀 deffo a good choice! Yes, it was very overwhelming at first (in a good way though hahhaa) 😭 but the staff are really kind so if you have a list next time I am sure they can help!

[@nicolelast230]

Amazing. Thanks for sharing this. Would you share the price comparrison? Curious. I'm in the states.

[@nails.boxofhope]

yes sure! from my footage/memory this is roughly a breakdown of prices: Yogurt nail kr Gingerbread collection (92000 won; 65 USD) Yogurt nail kr individual gels (14000; 10 USD) stickers (1000-2000 won/sheet; 0.70-1.40 USD) charms (400-800 won/pack; 0.30-0.60 USD) things like the Diami pincure flash cure lamp was 40000 won (30 USD) too. so definitely a lot cheaper (no import taxes/fees etc) but also dangerous because it's easy to spend a lot 🤣 hope this helps!

[@nicolelast230]

@@nails.boxofhope thank you!!!!

[@annap7201]

Omg so jealous! Can anyone go in or do you need a nail license to purchase items?

[@nails.boxofhope]

Anyone can go in & no license needed to purchase items! ☺️

[@Theocita]

Did u need a license to go?

[@nails.boxofhope]

@@Theocita nope! No license needed to visit & purchase ☺️

[@margimello7408]

How where the prices? Imagine coming back through customs with a full suitcase of nail polish....😂

[@nails.boxofhope]

very reasonable, I'd say around 30-50% cheaper than importing ☺ I'll cover pricing in my upcoming haul video too!

[@nails.boxofhope]

what kind of gel nails product would you want to shop most in person? 👀 definitely gotta be chrome powders & cateye gels for me (seeing the colour shifts irl !!) 🐱

[@nicolelast230]

Depending upon the prices, the acual polishes I think. And then like you, things that I don't see much of online.

[@aliciasmith9079]

Anything liquid (gels, 3d gel, inks, builders)! They seem quite a cheaper than North American retailers. There's also a store called Saracen in Seoul that ships internationally that I would love to go to😍

[@nails.boxofhope]

@@aliciasmith9079 whaaat I had never heard of Saracen before but just browsed the website and !!!! - Thank you for sharing 🤍 they stock DVOK individual shades 😭 Have you ordered from their site before? If so, how much was shipping?

[@brianamcintyre6988]

Same! I cant wait to go there soon

[@brianamcintyre6988]

Girl your camera looks amazing which one do you use😭🤍🙏🫶🙌

[@SusanMiller-hv2wk]

I hear stuff there is very expensive.

[@nails.boxofhope]

@@SusanMiller-hv2wk nail stuff? everything was around 30-50% cheaper than importing from online for me! ☺️
