Before you go
When to shop: the sale calendar
Four big sales a year, plus a smaller one every month.

The Olive Young Sale
Every March, June, September and December, OLIVE YOUNG runs its main sale for about a week, in stores and online at once. In 2026 the June sale ran from 31 May to 6 June.
More than 1,500 Korean brands take part. Popular cushions and sunscreens can sell out in the first days.
Olive Young Day
A smaller monthly event usually runs around the 25th to 27th. Discounts are narrower and products vary.
Reading a sale shelf
“1+1” means two units for the price of one; “기획” on a box means a special set, often with a mini or refill. Check the capacity on the box before comparing prices.
