I walked into a space that covers a lot of ground, from snacks and drinks to beauty products, home goods, and collectibles, and the density of what is on display makes it easy to spend more time browsing than I planned. The snack selection is the strongest draw and covers an impressive range. I saw Asian versions of familiar American snacks sitting alongside Japanese and Korean originals, and the drink section downstairs is broad enough that finding something I have not tried before is a near certainty. The variety of drinks, many with anime or character branding, reflects a buying approach that goes beyond the standard convenience store selection. The beauty and skincare section upstairs is well stocked with Korean and Japanese brands that are not widely available at American drugstores. I browsed through everything from face wash to sheet masks and specialty treatments, and the prices are competitive for imported products of this type. Blind boxes occupy their own significant section, and the selection across different series is one of the better in the city, with reasonable pricing relative to what the same items cost at specialty toy stores. Home goods, toys, collectibles, and kawaii accessories fill the remaining floor space. For a one stop shop for Korean and Japanese lifestyle goods, snacks, and beauty products in Koreatown, TESO Life delivers a broad and browsable experience that rewards repeat visits.

The store itself was clean, well-organized, and lots to browse, with prices that felt on par with other cosmetic shops in the area. One thing I appreciated was how quiet it was compared to the trending beauty store just down the street. It was nice to explore at my own pace without the crowds. That said, the experience felt more self-serve, as the sales associate wasn't particularly welcoming or attentive during my visit. If you already know what you're looking for, it's a great little spot to pop into. Just don't expect much in the way of personalized help--but the product selection makes it worth checking out.

If you're going to run a business in the melting pot that is NYC, you should teach your employees not to racially profile and that everyone should be treated equally.

Right after they charged me, the order was canceled with the excuse that I had requested the cancellation, which is absolutely false. I never canceled anything. Since then, my money has been in dispute because: The company does not respond to emails. They only send automated messages saying someone will get in touch with me, but no one ever does. Meanwhile, MELIO claims that they already sent the money to the seller and is now asking me to either pay again or provide my card number so they can try to charge me again. Absolutely not! This is robbery. I should not have to lose my money like this. And who is going to compensate me for the damage? This situation is unacceptable.

I walked into a store that is essentially one large room, and the density of product on display meant navigating it during a busy period required some patience, but the selection within that compact space was broader than the size suggested. The Korean literature section covers both Korean language and English language editions across a range of genres, which makes it genuinely useful for anyone studying the language or looking for titles that are difficult to find at general bookstores in the city. I saw children's books in Korean, well stocked. The K pop side of the store covers albums, photocards, posters, keychains, stickers, and merchandise across a wide range of artists, with BTS having a particularly strong presence historically alongside newer groups. Pricing runs higher than what I would pay ordering online or finding the same items at a larger retailer, which is the standard trade off for a specialty shop in Manhattan. Album prices in particular can be steep, though sale events bring them down to more competitive territory. Individual accessory items like stickers and bookmarks are priced at a premium relative to their size, so going in with a sense of what I am willing to spend helps avoid sticker shock at the register. The store is a reliable stop for anyone looking for Korean books or K pop merchandise in a physical retail setting in New York, with the caveat that the pricing and the crowd level are both factors worth knowing about before I go.

And it was great to meet Roberto. It's nice to know Aveda hires truly wonderful people with highly professional customer service abilities. I hope Aveda treats these people at this little shop as well as they treat their customers! Thank you Aveda!

Everything is vibrant + playful + makes you feel like you're in a better mood. I just wanna go up to smell everything because they all smell delicious when I'm first stepping foot into the store. Staff is always friendly + helpful + attentive at this 59th Street - Columbus Circle location. You can easily find this spot at the Turnstyle Underground Market after coming out through the turnstiles. Lovely and fragrant aromas of freshly handmade skincare + hair care + body care + bath bombs + soap bars + makeup products are filled throughout the store. Since the products are handmade and not processed by machines, they tend to be in different sizes. Another thing is that, they have shorter shelf lives + shorter expiration dates. For the fresh face masks being sold in containers, it is absolutely necessary to store them in the fridge when/after getting home so they won't get spoiled. They usually will expire in a month as there's no synthetic preservatives in the formula. Face masks are packed with fresh, natural active ingredients like fruits and vegetables too. Other skincare products like cleansers & moisturizers may not need to be put in the fridge and can last up to one year to 14 months. Bath bombs and soap bars aren't required to be placed inside the fridge. So, just storing them in a cool, dry place is already well enough. Although, it is highly recommended to store them in airtight containers to prevent food odors from seeping in if they're placed inside the fridge. I tend to like placing products made with oils like massage bars in the fridge during the summer. Therefore, the oil doesn't get separated from the product itself. Moreover, there won't be any melting either. Different products are catered to different skin concerns that people might have. Anyone's bound to find something he/she will like inside. Lush is a great place to buy thoughtful presents for your family and friends on their birthdays or other holiday celebrations.

Don't let this boutique make you think that a gift is the sample, because they are not. Alexandria in this boutique told me that 2 samples and gifts only apply to online orders... which isn't true, since other locations do offer them (and you do get a say on what scents you want). Also, when returning a product, make sure they process it correctly... here, they simply recharged the item and did an on-the-spot exchange, meaning no actual refund, which is basically robbery and against the law. This whole experience didn't feel right, so I asked Alexandria for the receipt, and she said it would be sent via email only. Wow... this is the first time I've ever heard of a business only sending receipts via email... which, again, isn't true. I went to another boutique afterward, and they actually know what they are doing and follow the policies. Also, if you must get your gift wrapped, go to another location as well, where they actually put heart into the task.
