Say goodbye to the days of spending hundreds of dollars to fly to Korea just to go shopping. Popular K-beauty retailer, Ksisters, has opened its first flagship store in Singapore, carrying over 30 brands of premium Korean goods, from skincare to fashion.
When you walk into the store at Wheelock Place, it feels like you immediately teleported to Korea. The store heavily resembles a hanok or a traditional Korean house. The crisp, neutral-toned interiors exude major clean girl beauty energy, enticing you to walk in and check the store out.
There are also many different aesthetic mirror spots around the store, making it the perfect place to take mirror selfies with your gals as well.
Ksisters was founded in 2016 by aesthetician Jungmin Lee, who wanted to start her own business after being in the marketing industry for years. She started Ksisters for her 2 daughters, Jooha and Yeonsoo, when she realised it was difficult to find Korean baby clothes in Singapore. Ksisters first started selling baby clothes—including matching sets for babies and mothers. In 2018, they transitioned to selling K-beauty products. Each collection that you see both on the website and in-store is handpicked by Jungmin herself. This is similar to what she would do for her daughters, showing that she cares for her consumers.
Since Korea and Singapore have different climates, Jungmin prides herself on carefully handpicking products that are suitable for Singapore’s hot and humid tropical climate.
If you’re looking for a new everyday bag, check out Samo Ondoh. It’s one of the most famous bag brands in Korea—all the hot Korean girls are carrying a Samo Ondoh bag.
The bags themselves are definitely for the girlies who love stuffing their bags to the brim, as they are very spacious with many pockets. The bag models featured in stores are the Utility Bags and Mug Bags (from $146), made with artificial leather. These trendy bags are bound to go with every outfit, and you can even jazz it up with their bag charms (from $18) which are also available at Ksisters Wheelock Place.
Jung Beauty, founded by Jungmin herself, is a K-beauty line created to give her customers the best products possible. The brand’s mission is to deliver fuss-free, affordable products without compromising on quality.
Their newest launch, the Damage Repair Keratin Shampoo ($42), is infused with oat protein, black bean extract, probiotics, and AQUARICH, a patented hair moisturiser. All the ingredients work together to form a deep repairing system to nourish and revitalise your tresses. After using the shampoo, your hair will be incredibly soft and shiny. The probiotics also refresh and cleanse your scalp.
Exclusive to the Ksisters flagship store is Dinto Makeup. The makeup brand is endorsed by Queen of Tears star Kim Soo Hyun, so if you’re a fan of the show, definitely check the brand out so you can match your idol.
Dinto Makeup is best known for its lip tints. If you hate constantly reapplying your lippie throughout the day, the long-wearing Blur-Jelly Plumping Lip Tint ($21.60) is definitely the solution. It also has a slight plumping effect, making your lips look juicy and shiny!
Ksisters also carries the full range of the Blur-Glowy Lip Tint ($21.60), another of Dinto’s popular lip products. This tint promises plump lips that shine like glass. Both ranges are worth looking out for if you are an avid lip tint lover.
Glow is yet another brand that’s been brought into Ksisters just for their flagship store. This brand has been on our radar since it went viral on TikTok, though it’s been difficult to get here in Singapore. Now, you can head down to Ksisters to enjoy a range of Glow’s products in-store.
They are best known for their innovative products, such as their Breathable Blemish Balm ($36). This lightweight BB cream comes in 3 shades, and can be used on its own, or as a custom makeup base. Their shades, including Brown and White can be mixed together to come up with your ideal foundation match, or as contour and highlight.
Another product to look out for is their Not Dry Concealer ($34), a double-sided concealer that is the perfect mix of hydrating and mattifying—making it a non-cakey and creaseless formula.
And that’s not all! Enjoy their opening store promotions such as a free scalp analysis and activity booths until 3 November. Aside from the brands we’ve highlighted, the Ksisters boutique also has even more brands available to browse, so you can take your time to build up a wishlist. Head down to this one-stop shop for all the trendiest Korean products now!
