How to compare K-beauty product sizes and unit prices online
A practical guide to comparing sizes and prices when shopping for Korean beauty online.
When buying Korean beauty products online, compare the specific product and size before judging a price. THE CAST provides a K-beauty selection online; prices and availability can change.
Match the product first
Check the brand, full product name and variant. A refill, set or differently formulated product may not be directly comparable to a single full-size item. Verify the quantity and units on the listing.
Calculate a unit price
For products measured in the same units, divide the product price by the quantity. For example, a hypothetical 50 ml product costing $20 is $0.40 per ml before shipping and other charges. This illustration is not a current store price.
Include delivery and terms
Compare the full basket total and shipping charge for your destination, plus any local import charges that may apply separately. Consider how much product you need and review cancellation and return conditions before paying.
