I really loved the products that this store had to offer as well as their customer service. My mom, sister, and I went to visit this place on a Friday afternoon. They have a pretty nice selection of popular Korean beauty & makeup products, athleisure/athletic wear, some purse charms, some casual lounge wear, and super soft and fluffy jackets (we were obsessed). One thing that stood out to us during our visit were the lovely people working at the front today, Sonia & Ana. Throughout the entire shopping experience they took the initiative of coming up to us whenever we looked indecisive. They also helped us pick skincare products that best suited our needs, as well as picking out various outerwear. They were also just very sweet and funny to talk to! I'll definitely be coming back in the future. (: read more

Bono Spera - korean skincare/haircare! - Women's Clothing Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

I get a little excited when I find a pearl, so brace yourself for some serious enthusiasm... This shop may be small, but Bono Spera is mighty in personality! This place rocks, and so do the products they carry! It's different, eccentric, intriguing, and down right cool. Ladies - give yourself time to check it out. Fellas - you can't go wrong if you want to surprise the lady in your life with something awesome! Costumer service is on point - I'm never lead astray and they KNOW they're products. There's no uncertainty here. I walk away confident with my purchase (and the occasional sample) every time! In a world SATURATED with consumerism and places you can spend your money, this shop reins supreme in cool points. On scale of 1 to 5, I give it a 6. I highly recommend the wine lip tint (see picture), as well as any of the yoga clothing. read more

Bono Spera - Super moist and gentle moisturizer! - Women's Clothing Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

I'm the type of person that don't like to use lotions or anything like that because of the smell and the sticky feeling on my face. But in a cold day specially in the morning after shaving my beard, my sensitive skin used to get very dry and irritated. I couldn't find a good product until I try this moist cream that my friend got me from here and with just a few drops, it was good enough to make my skin protected and moisturized for the whole day. And lastly, it's fragrance free!! read more

Bono Spera - Moist cream for sensitive skin! - Women's Clothing Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Fell in love with this store at first sight! The first time I came in, I had the awesome chance to meet and talk with the owner, Sonia, mostly about skincare which was primarily what brought me in! I absolutely love everything she stocks. She clearly handpicks the products and has a wealth of knowledge about each product and their benefits, their hero ingredients, and I believe she's tried many of them herself as well. Since the first visit, I've been to her store almost a dozen times and shopped with her over-the-phone basically as I no longer live nearby. Bono Spera has become my go-to store for about 90% of al my skincare and cosmetic needs. I also purchased my favorite reversible swimsuit from her! Got so many compliments on it when I went to Hawaii, and the reversible feature made it a steal for the price. If you shop in the area, you may be aware that another, larger retailer of Korean and Asian cosmetics opened up at South Coast plaza. That's nice and all but I urge you to shop here at Bono Spera and all the of the great shops within OC mix. I love to frequent and support local boutiques, I feel a bit more connected to the community that way and feel better about where my money is going. Aside from all those reasons, I absolutely love Sonia and her store. Her store is really a hidden gem and as much as I'd love to keep the beauty secrets all to myself, more people should know about the store and all it has to offer. Coming from a cosmetics retail background, she knows so so much about the products she stocks - whether you're new to self care or know all about the latest beauty trends, she's a great reference and genuinely cares about the products you may want to try or buy. The store has the cutest clothes as well! I purchased my favorite fur house slippers from here as well. They are so soft,warm, and stylish. Gotta be cute even when I'm a bum at home with one of the face masks I got from the store (; 12/10 recommend to anyone who happens to be at OC Mix. read more

Just browsing before dinner .... WOWED with the cutest , unique cloths with great prices.

Bono Spera - This unbelievably soft plaid Shirt is made with the soft double knit plaid. - Women's Clothing Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

I really like this boutique! I found it on Yelp few months ago when I was looking for K-beauty products. I fell in love with this place at the first visit. I can tell you why: - Customer Service - the best, top notch. I met Sonia, the owner, she's super nice. She understands the customer needs, and does not promote what the customer is not interested in. She went extra miles doing research to offer vegan and natural skin care products that I was looking for. - Clothes - cute and trendy, this store carries the latest fashion. - K-beauty - her store also carries skin care vegan products - Aromatica (EWG certified), and Pyunkang Yul. My skin has improved after using these products. Visit this store, you will enjoy it! reasonable price! I come here from time to time to check out the new products. read more

Wow absolutely great design and their jewelry is one of a kind. Sonia was very helpful and her good customer service was amazing!! I love it! read more

This little boutique is amazing. So much to choose from.. I have been using Korean Skincare for the last few weeks and have been totally overwhelmed with all the steps and what products to use for my skin type. The owner Sonia was so accommodating to me and helped me pick products that were meant for my skin types. She really took her time and even helped me pick out a really nice shawl for my mother. We left with different samples to try and will definitely be returning. Love this place read more

I am so happy that I don't have to drive all the way to k-town in LA for korean skincare products! Bono Spera is located inside the OC mix in Costa Mesa. They sell korean skincare products, cosmetics, as well as clothes. I favorite is the Cosx acne patches! Those things work wonders when my face is breaking out. Best part, it doesn't break bank. A lot the products are very affordable. Staff here is super friendly and customer service is amazing. The owner took her time to explain the products to me since a lot of them was written in korean. Any questions you have, the owner will gladly answer. ^_^ read more

They are nothing short of amazing. They are always willing to go above and beyond helping anyone with what they need and/or want. I'm not one to give five stars however they were so very sweet when I went in and worked with my budget. 5/5 would visit again. read more

Came here with the intention of buying kbeauty products. Their selection is extremely limited to just 2 small sections. They didn't carry any sunblock which I was looking for and the stuff they did had was really pricey $50+ range. The clothes in the shop was cute though but wouldn't call this place a cosmetics or beauty store. read more

I went to Bono Spera last night and Sonia (the owner) was extremely friendly and super helpful. I had been there once before a little over a month ago and she remembered me and the name of my niece who she was over the top friendly to. Sonia explained a bunch of different skin care products and helped me pick the right product for my dry skin (Pyunkang Yul). I gave it a try last night and my skin feel amazing! Thank you Sonia! You are so sweet and It was so nice talking to you and thank you so much for your help! read more

Checked again and couldn't believe all the new merchandise. Love the new sweaters, workout clothes and I couldn't believe the over the shoulder yoga mat and water bottle carrying bag. The purses were one of a kind. Also, the employee told me on Sunday 3 Dec. 10am-1pm it's going to be Nutcracker holiday free event for the whole family at the OC Mix. Photos with Santa, a photo booth, dancers from Festival Ballet Theater, live music and holiday activities. The OC Mix. read more

I have been meaning to write this review since we came here about 2 weeks ago. Grabbing coffee we stumbled upon this store when we saw that there were some Korean skin care products. I have been dealing with hormonal acne for about a year now as my 30th birthday approaches. For a long time I was using eastern methods and was recently turned towards some of the gentler K- beauty products. Usually I get products offline however its hard because most times I just want to talk to someone in person and ask questions/get advice. Off the bat Sonia was so energetic and enthusiastic about skin care. She is very knowledgable and just flat out a fun person to talk to. She runs her business very professionally and you can tell that she really cares about her products and her customers. She spent a good 30 minutes or so talking to us about what we use, sharing stories, and giving advice. I walked away with a new toner that so far has been helping by far the best out of all the skin care products I have tried! We will definitely be returning and supporting this business and highly recommend it for anyone looking for quality skincare products and advice. read more

I have been remiss in writing a review and am finally doing it. This is the cutest shop and a great addition to the OC Mix. I love Korean beauty products and the variety of clothes and bags that are available here. I've bought pieces for work, lounging around and numerous gifts for my friends. Sonia exceeds my expectations and goes above and beyond in customer service. I only wish I could buy most of the store! read more

I met the owner of this cute little boutique. She's extremely nice and patient. I was in there with 2 friends who tried many of the korean beauty products she had but did not make a purchase. However, she was still very friendly and chatted with us. I did make a purchase of the Pyunkang Yul products. She has a nice curated selection of K Beauty products. I would definitely go back simply because the owner is so nice and I like to support local businesses. read more
