Can anyone recommend legitimate sites for purchasing Korean makeup + skincare products? I've been dying to try out a few things I've seen, but I'm not sure where to buy...

I have used both RoseRoseShop.com and BeautyNetKorea.com to purchase asian makeup/skincare without any issues.

on /r/asianbeauty you can find an awesome list of reputable sellers: http://www.reddit.com/r/AsianBeauty/comments/290to0/giant_list_of_websites_ebayers_etc/
I would recommend buying from somewhere with free shipping if you're getting one or two items - an ebay shop, jolse, or beautynetkorea for example. If you want to buy several items at once, it's generally cheaper to buy from a site with separate shipping charges like testerkorea, roseroseshop, or honestskin. You can check out the list I linked and look for where has the best deals for your shopping needs.
I would absolutely recommend looking at the holy grail lists on /r/AsianBeauty for some product recommendations as there are so many awesome products for whatever you may be looking for it's hard to make suggestions.

I've ordered from [Cosmetic Love](http://cosmetic-love.com/?sl=EN) a few times and was really happy with them. Good shipping rates/times, generous with samples, good sales/promotions, big selection, etc.

I bought off Kollection K, they must use some bulk shipping service because I got my order in about 8 days!

I always order from TesterKorea. They have a nice loyalty program; I'm currently getting an across the board 6% off of all orders; the next tier up is going to be 8%. Generally time from order placement to shipping is decent--anywhere from a couple of days (this has been the norm for me) to a week (after a couple of their big sales). Reliable; I've never had a missing item, lost package, or counterfeit item. Also they sell lots of sample sets and things like that if you're into trying a lot of new stuff.

Roseroseshop is my life. Welcome to that addiction.

I joined /r/asianbeauty and ordered on roseroseshop.com at their recommendation. Customer service is a bit iffy (never got a confirmation email with shipping info), but the package did eventually arrive, and I'm super happy with the products I ordered!

If you're not familiar with the subreddits already, /r/asianbeauty and /r/koreanbeauty are pretty great for tooling around the sidebar to get useful information. As /u/FirePsyca_ said, roseroseshop and beautynetkorea are great sites. Their eBay store fronts are rubyrubyshop and f2 plus1, respectively. You can also check out GMarket, eopenmarket.com, sasa.com, prettyandcute.com (US site, beware the price markups), and testerkorea.com.

Is cosmetic-love.com reliable? Hello,

I've ordered from them before and I thought the service was good. I got lots of samples and the shipping to spain was very reasonable. I definitely recommend getting a tracking number though! The products are legit and they have some good prices!

This thread linked in the sidebar may be helpful: http://www.reddit.com/r/AsianBeauty/comments/18 nhp7/favorite_asian_beauty_sellers_outside_of_asia/ But yes, I think the general consensus here is that they're legit and reliable.

Yes. I have purchased from them since they were on ebay (I think they still are, but before they made their own website) and I love them. I know their prices are higher than roseroseshop but with $1 shipping + samples, I love them. Also I put in an order with cosmetic-love and roseroseshop on the same day and I received cosmetic-love a week ahead of roseroseshop.

They've never let me down, and are nice when it comes to samples. I like them as well as [Beautynetkorea](http://www.beautynetkorea.com).
