I love the fact that they have testers for all the products so you can see what it looks like in person. Also, great place to find a foundation match. The people who work here are also always nice and friendly. They also have sales and specials going on different products all the time. A really useful, cute, and clean place. Every time I'm there I leave happy!

I had been wanting to try the TirTir cushion foundation for a while but didn't know what shade to…read moreorder. I was staying with my friends in Bayside and I knew I'd be able to find a place in Flushing that carried it where I could test out the colors. We went to Besfren on a Sunday morning and the gentleman helped me pick a color. We left with a couple of other things and I think the color I chose is a good match to my skin. I was at Besfren with my best friend! I'm sure we'll be back as they have a great selection!

There's a new beauty shop in town to compete with Eve, Eve, Morning Glory, Valentine, etc. Everyday…read moreBeauty just opened up in the New World Mall and it carries Asian brands. I've seen Japanese, Korean, and Chinese so far in facial care and hair care. And BB creams! What a selection of BB creams! The staff here was very helpful too. They approach and ask every now and then to make sure potential customers aren't lost and confused (might feel awkward if you're just browsing). I bought some sunscreen here and they gave toner/emulsion samples. (I like freebies =D.)

Pros: + They've got a pretty good inventory of various…read moreChinese, Korean, and Japanese products. That's especially true for items that are in vogue, like tamanohada shampoo. + They've got lots of testers for makeup products. Cons: - It's not cheap... But it's not insanely expensive either. For example, Dr. Jarts BB cream is a whopping $44 here, but $39 at Sephora. You can get a lot of this stuff online for cheaper, but then you have to account for the cost of shipping/buying the minimum to get free shipping, etc. I think this is a great place to buy a one-off product or discover something new, but I think they would need to provide discounts for large purchases in order to make their prices competitive when purchasing larger hauls. They do like to include free samples with purchases, but that just ain't the same. - The folks who work here will almost certainly keep a very, very careful watch on you while you shop. Sometimes they follow right behind me the entire time. This doesn't bother me terribly - it's pretty standard in Taiwan, where my family's from - but I can see someone getting really peeved about it. I'd recommend having a pretty good idea of what you want before you come here, especially if you don't speak Chinese.

I for one am not a hater of Eve. I live in Bayside and this is the closest beauty supply to me…read more Yes, it's a bit more expensive than Jamaica Ave or 125th St but the extra .50- $1 isn't a dealbreaker for me as this is the closest place to my home for silk bonnets and other black hair products. The selection is pretty extensive everything from braiding hair to drug store make to Chinese beats products all under one roof. I wouldn't make this my destination for weave but braiding hair here is relatively cheap $2 and I saw a some crochet braids for $6. All in all got my gold beads for box braids and a jumbo bonnet for $7 with tax. As for the whole racial profiling business, the countless times I've been here I have never felt followed or watched. However judging by the "wall of shame" they have on the door it seems like this place has a major shoplifting issue lol

The service was okay, there were only 2 staff members from what I saw; one of the staffs would come to check on us very 5 minutes which was a little uncomfortable but I can't speak Chinese that well so that's probably why. They seem very nice, friendly and helpful so I'll go there again.

Young Jin, as she is called, has a keen eye for what your skin needs --for care as well as for makeup.

I saw another Yelper photo of the 1/2 match and 1/2 vanilla ice cream cone and wanted to get one. I looked at their fridge and did not see any of them, but saw a lot of other refreshing items. Since I was on a mission and pressed for time to find these three other shops. I took pictures of items to get the next I come back with more time to shop at Teso Life. Clear and clean aisles. Items on shelf had pricing so you know cost of the object you want to purchase. Tons of selection for snack and candies. This little boy was grabbing different variety of candy. Was impressed with the amount of items stocked at this Teso Life from edible items to cosmetics and kitchen products too. Love it that Teso Life is near the train station and bus stops too.

He's very nice although he does just stand around sometimes as you browse (well intentioned although it can be awk). Will be back!
