[StyleKorean Festa Week 2] Don't miss the best — Week 2 of StyleKorean Festa is here!

New look, new features, and the StyleKorean Festa — summer's biggest sale, running all of July.

Week 1 set the tone — and if the buzz around Pharmacy Box Season 2 was any indication, it landed exactly the way we hoped. Three weeks, rotating lineups, new brands every round — that's still the deal, and the Festa is only just getting started. 


This week's theme says it all: Don't Miss the Best. No filler, no obscure picks — just the K-beauty names that built their reputation for a reason, alongside a few rising brands quietly earning their spot on everyone's radar.

This issue, we're spotlighting four Week 2 products handpicked by our marketing team as the things summer skin genuinely needs: two retinol options (because summer skin still needs renewal — just gently), a portable, stick-format sunscreen you can reapply anywhere, and a dark spot serum for the damage summer sun quietly leaves behind. Here's why each one made the cut.

[Dr.Althea] Pure Retinol 0.15% Cream 20g

Let's be honest — starting retinol is intimidating. That's exactly why we picked this one first. It's built for beginners, which means you get the renewal benefits without the trial-and-error irritation phase everyone dreads.

Special Price: $23.9 -> $15 (37% OFF)

[Purito Seoul] Retinol Retinal 2000 NAD+ Serum 30ml

Already comfortable with retinol? Then it's time to level up. At 2,000ppm total retinoid concentration, this pairs long-term-renewal Retinol with fast-acting Retinal for quicker, more visible results, while NAD+ boosts cellular energy for overall skin vitality. We picked this as the "next step" for anyone who's outgrown beginner formulas.

Special Price: $25 -> $15 (40% OFF)

[Abib] Quick Sunstick Protection Bar SPF50+ PA++++

[AXIS-Y] Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum 50ml

Here's something people underestimate: pigmentation gets worse in summer, and it's UV exposure doing it. That's why sunscreen alone isn't enough — you need dark spot care running alongside it, before those marks turn into something more permanent. We picked this one specifically because the texture is light enough for summer layering, while the formula (5% Niacinamide, Squalane, and antioxidant botanical extracts) works on discoloration from sun exposure and breakout marks while still supporting hydration and barrier health.

That's our four summer must-haves for Week 2 — the rest of the lineup is right below in the full catalog.

Week 2 runs from July 13, 2 PM KST to July 20, 2 PM KST. And don't sleep on the daily $1 deals — only 2 to 3 items drop each day, first come, first served. Once they're gone, they're gone.
