K-beauty Black Friday doesn’t wait for Black Friday.
Olive Young kicked theirs off on 1 November (yes, really, nearly four weeks early), and it’s all over by the 12th, which means if you were planning to do your Korean skincare haul on the actual day like a normal person, you’d have missed it completely. So this page is my running list of the K-beauty shops I buy from, and which of my codes still work on top of their deals.
Bookmark it – I’m updating it twice a week until Cyber Monday, and every shop gets its real deals added the day they go up.

Olive Young Black Friday 2026 (live now, ends 12 November)
Ends 12 November
Olive Young's Black Friday runs from 1 to 12 November. There are Black Friday deals right across K-beauty, 24-hour one-day deals that change daily, and a separate offer for first orders.
My code NEVEEN20 takes up to 10% off anywhere Olive Young Global ships, apart from the US. If the thing you want isn't reduced, that's where the code earns its keep.
Shipping is free on orders of US$60 or more, and UK orders of £135 or under don't get charged duty, so if your basket's getting big (no judgement), splitting it into two orders under £135 can save you a customs bill. More on my Olive Young discount code page.
Shop the Olive Young Black Friday dealsEnds 12 November. Up to 10% off with code NEVEEN20YesStyle Black Friday 2026
YesStyle is the dangerous one for me (I go in for one toner and come out with eleven things). And this year they're not waiting for the 27th either. Their Black Friday deals are up to 50% off, but honestly? The bit I'm excited about is everything else.
Pop one of YesStyle's coupon codes below and my code NEVEEN15 in at checkout, and you get up to an extra 20% off everything that isn't already in the sale. Two boxes. Two codes. One very smug basket.
YesStyle's Black Friday coupon codes (so far):
| Coupon code | When it works (UK time) |
|---|---|
| YESREADY26 | 3 to 6 November |
| BFSTART26 | 7 to 9 November |
| GAME26 | 10 to 13 November |
| ROAD26 | 14 to 16 November |
| WIN26 | 17 to 20 November |
Each one starts at midnight and runs until 23:59 on the last day, UK time (GMT). If you're in the US, that means every code switches over the evening before, at 7pm Eastern or 4pm Pacific. Is there anything more annoying than a code that died an hour ago? I don't think so. YesStyle says more codes are coming for Black Friday week and Cyber Monday, and I'll add them here the day they land.
Quick reminder on how mine works. NEVEEN15 gets you an extra 2% to 5% off every order on its own, and it stacks with YesStyle's coupons above. So you don't have to pick between their code and mine, you can have both. It goes in the box labelled Influencer / Rewards Code, not the coupon box (that one trips everybody up). Details on my YesStyle discount code page.

STYLEVANA is where I go for most of my K-beauty, and I was a paying customer for years before they ever sent me anything. No 2026 Black Friday details yet. They do run flash sales through the year, so it's worth a look before the big day too.
INF10NEVE gets you up to 25% off eligible products and works on UK and US orders. Sale items are excluded, so on Black Friday it's the sale price or the code. More on my STYLEVANA discount code page.

SkinSeoul's Black Friday plans aren't out yet. In the meantime their deals page is worth a scroll, and my code NEVEEN gets you an extra 5% off. Shipping is free over £45 in the UK or $50 in the US, and every order comes with free samples. Code terms are on my SkinSeoul discount code page.

No Black Friday news from BuyBeautyKorea yet, and it goes here when there is. My code NEVEEN10 gets you 10% off in the meantime. More on my BuyBeautyKorea discount code page.
Shop BuyBeautyKorea10% off with code NEVEEN10Buy Me Japan Black Friday 2026 (for the J-beauty fans)
Okay, technically not K-beauty. But if you're the sort of person reading a whole page about Korean skincare sales, I'd bet good money there's a Japanese sunscreen or two in your basket as well (guilty). Buy Me Japan hasn't shared Black Friday plans yet. My code NEVEENWOOD gets you 10% off your order, and the details are on my Buy Me Japan discount code page.
Shop Buy Me Japan10% off with code NEVEENWOODLOOKFANTASTIC K-beauty sale (UK, live now)
Not a K-beauty shop, but this one surprised me. LOOKFANTASTIC has a whole Korean beauty sale running right now, with up to 30% off and an extra 10% off selected items with their code EXTRA10.
If you're in the UK and can't be bothered waiting on a parcel from Seoul (me, every single time), this is the easy option, because it ships from here.
My own LOOKFANTASTIC code doesn't usually work on sale items, so on this one use theirs. The rest of the LF side of things is in my LOOKFANTASTIC Black Friday guide.

None of these have announced Black Friday plans yet. When they do, they'll move up into their own section.
These ones take my codes:
- StyleKorean: NEVEEN20 for 5% to 15% off. My StyleKorean code page
- Dear Klairs: NEVEENWOOD for 15% off. My Klairs code page
- TIRTIR: NEVEENWOOD for 5% off the Milk Skin Toner and Mask Fit Red Cushion. My TIRTIR code page
- Round Lab: NEVEEN for 5% off. My Round Lab code page
No code, but worth a look on the day:
- Jolse: a big Korean skincare shop that ships worldwide, so it's whatever they put on sale.
- KoreanSkincare.com (Europe): handy if you're in the EU and want to dodge customs.
- iHerb: not a K-beauty shop as such, but it stocks a surprising amount of it and ships pretty much everywhere.
- MISSHA US (US): the brand's own US shop.
- Plantifique (US): vegan skincare made in a Korean lab.
My K-beauty Black Friday shopping list
Okay, enough shops. If you just want to know what I'd actually put in my basket, it's this lot. They're the bits I keep reaching for, so they're the prices I'll be watching.
SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella AmpouleMy holy grail serum. If this one's reduced anywhere, I'm stocking up.Check it at SkinSeoul (code NEVEEN)
Anua Azelaic Acid 10+ and Niacinamide 10+ TXAThe two Anua serums, both at Olive Young, and their sale is on right now, so these are the easy ones.Check them at Olive Young (code NEVEEN20)
Anua Heartleaf 77% toner + Canmake Mermaid Skin Gel UVTwo from my YesStyle top four (the Numbuzin No.9 eye cream and SKIN1004 are the other two). NEVEEN15 stacks on top of their coupons here.Check them at YesStyle (code NEVEEN15)

Ordering K-beauty on Black Friday for Christmas
This is the bit I'd plan around. Black Friday is four weeks before Christmas, which sounds like loads of time until you remember all of this is coming from Asia. YesStyle has taken 8 to 20 days to reach me in the UK, Olive Young is usually about 4 to 5 days once it's dispatched, and STYLEVANA is slower than a UK shop. So treat Black Friday weekend as your last comfortable window for presents, and don't count on anything ordered in December turning up before the 25th.
How I'd shop K-beauty Black Friday
Make your list now, while nothing's on sale and you can still think straight. Stick things in your basket or wishlist at each shop and note the normal price. When the sales start, you'll know in two seconds whether the "deal" is actually a deal.
After that it's simple. If it's reduced, take the sale price. If it isn't, use my code. And at YesStyle you don't even have to choose, because the two stack.
K-beauty Black Friday FAQs
When is Olive Young's Black Friday sale in 2026?
Olive Young's Black Friday runs from 1 to 12 November 2026, so it finishes about two weeks before Black Friday itself on 27 November.
What are the YesStyle Black Friday coupon codes for 2026?
So far they're YESREADY26 (3 to 6 November), BFSTART26 (7 to 9 November), GAME26 (10 to 13 November), ROAD26 (14 to 16 November) and WIN26 (17 to 20 November), all on UK time. Use one with my code NEVEEN15 for up to an extra 20% off anything that isn't already in the sale.
Can I use a discount code on K-beauty Black Friday sale items?
Usually not, because most codes are meant for full-price items, so it's the sale price or the code. YesStyle is the exception, because NEVEEN15 stacks with YesStyle's own coupons.
Will K-beauty ordered on Black Friday arrive before Christmas?
It should if you order on Black Friday weekend, but leave as much room as you can. YesStyle has taken 8 to 20 days to reach me in the UK, Olive Young is usually about 4 to 5 days once dispatched, and STYLEVANA is slower than a UK shop.
