Althea Korea's Grand Launching plus Review


Hello K-Beauty geeks! I know you'll be the happiest because Althea Korea is finally launching their online store here in the Philippines. I was invited to shop on their Beta Testing day and who am I to say no to Korean beauty products. Yes I'm fascinated with Korean skincare and Cosmetics. Before we start, let me share to you a little background about Althea Korea. Hey! I know they're popular and you'll probably say I know that, I knew it etc. This is for the peeps who never heard Althea Korea yet. Are we clear? Ok shut up and continue reading!

They're having a big giveaway! FREE 300 credits to shop on ph.althea.kr for every new sign up. Free shipping will be given for every P1,000 spent during their launching month. Besides the low prices, there will be Daebak Deals 1+1 and Zero Peso Deals too!

This will surely be a Flamboyant Opening! Yehey! \^.^/

My experience as a Beta tester:

The first thing I've noticed about their site is that, it is very simple and clean and I love it! Dang! It's perfect for minimalists like me. Haha. I was full of excitement during that time because they offer a huge variety of Korean Skincare and K-Beauty products and I don't know where to start haha. I honestly can't decide if I'll go to skincare tab or make up section. Curious where I went first? Oh good! I saw the Nature Republic Aloe Gel and with no hesitations, I added it to my cart. Most importantly, their prizes are way cheaper than any other store and they'll ship your orders directly from Korea. They offer FREE shipping for orders more than P1,500 pesos. Listed below are my observations:

• Affordable prizes ( \^.^/ )
• Prizes are converted to PHP
• Products have their descriptions and complete details ( all you need to know about the product )
• Clean website
• Easy to navigate
• 101% Authentic products
• Wide Variety of K-Product
• Quick Delivery
• Placing an order has never been a challenge as the information you need to fill up is not as long as EDSA lol.
• There's an overview and total of what's in your cart in every page of the website ( very convenient )
See screenshot below:






Areas of improvements:

• When you click on the second or third page and you click back again, you'll be directed on the main page not in the previous page.
• When I hit place order it loads like for couple of minutes and I was worried if my order has been placed. Good thing I received the confirmation email.


Products I've purchased:



• Nature Republic Aloe gel
• Missha Perfect Cover BB cream #21
• Missha Perfect Cover BB cream #23
• Innisfree No-Sebum Mineral powder
• Sebum Out Finish powder
• 2 packs of Pig Nose 3 step black head remover

By the way, I used my Mobile Phone to shop and beta test the site. Why? Because most of us are using our Smartphone to shop online and I want to test if they're mobile friendly and dude! I'm telling you, aha! they are! :D

My order arrived after 8 days and I never thought it would be that fast. My orders were delivered in a cute pink parcel completely wrapped with plastic bubbles from inside out. Plus I got a free Red Ginseng Mask oh lala! I super love Althea Korea!

I wish that this review helps. I know you're excited too. What's the first product you're going to order from Althea Korea? Please let me know by commenting below.

Thank you! :)
