Very nostalgic feeling of many of the Asian beauty and cosmetics stores that were more abundant in…read morethe 626 during my high school days. They have a pretty decent selection and brands of Asian, mostly Japanese beauty products here. No, it's not as new or organized like Shibuyala or Takashima, but it has its own charm to it, especially their decor and display of goods. They do have sales intermittently, making a good number of their items priced at a lower point than the aforementioned competitors I listed above. I've gotten the same Japanese brand eyeliners for $10 here when it's usually $8-10 more elsewhere. I've been to this store a couple times and they have a membership which offers a point system and deals (I believe), but my most recent visit has their weeklong Black Friday sale where it's BOGO 50% off. Not only do they have cosmetics but they have a lot of home goods (think imported Japanese Starbucks mugs and tumblers), snacks, and so many cute things. They have so much Duffy and Friends goods from Disney Asia, Universal Studios Japan goods, Sanrio and San-X goods that I haven't seen in our general shops here, Chiikawa, and they even have kuji raffle prize goods and blind boxes too. Staff is friendly and polite each time I've gone, but they for sure are vigilant watching people but they're not following you around. Great place to stop and shop or just to peruse the goods they have there.

This shop sells a lot of Asian beauty products, like cosmetics, hair accessories, toiletries,…read moregifts, etc. I saw Korean brand face masks and Japanese brand make-up. The prices are a bit high, but it's an interesting store to browse and shop. They have some cute things, like Sanrio. If you can't find these Asian brand anywhere, then this is the place to get them! The people who work here speak Chinese. They almost follow you around if they think you're remotely interested.

What an END OF AN ERA…read more I can't believe this store location is closing but I suppose it makes sense since they have other locations and since there's so many other imported Japanese skincare and make up competitors out there too, though I always do my due diligence to shop around since prices can vary greatly and if there's sales. Most items are already out of stock since they've been scooped up by people but there's items here and there. There's a cashier at the front and not much interaction, but I prefer this over some of the older locations where they'd hover over you. Stock here is decent, but it's nowhere close to the RH location, but ever since going here as a high schooler (rare visits), I'd love to ascend and descend the stairs and look down and look at the decorations and random Ghibli and cute character goods they have up there.

Stopped by recently since this store is shutting down. The store is almost empty since they're…read moreclosing up shop later this month. Everything is 50% off (and possibly more). At the time of my visit, I was the only person who came. Seems like most of the popular products are gone now, so people arent as inclined to come in. Most of the popular Canmake products are gone, leaving you with some mascaras. &honey stock is wiped clean as well. I managed to snag a couple of refill bags for off&relax since I heard good things about the brand. Service is pretty nonexistent, which is fine by me since I prefer to be left alone. I'll still be at the Arcadia store though!

A few weeks ago, my youngest daughter said she was out of the Pokeman Lip Cream. Well, she told me this after I came back from Las Vegas LOL. So, I had to seek out the lip cream elsewhere that is closer to home. Luckily, there is a Shibuyala in Temple City, CA. YAY! So here I am... what a fun + colorful place to find cosmetics and beauty stuff! The lady staff was super nice and lovely. I didn't waste any time. I asked and I shall receive. The lady knew exactly what I was looking for. She led me to the lip creams immediately. I bought 3 of them. They are $11 a pop... a bit pricey, but hey, our lips deserve tender loving care, too. My daughter was very pleased and so was I. We now don't have to wait until our next Las Vegas trip to get amazing & moisturizing lips LOL. Funny, I was informed this shop has been here for over 10 years LOL. I guess if you don't look, you won't find. I will be back from here on out now that I know they are in So Cal. Let's all beautify today!

Ivy promptly told me about a buy one get one special they were running for sheet masks, and when I lingered at a product display for a few moments she quickly began explaining what the product was used for and what kind of skin it suited. For reference, I'm not Asian, so I can't read many of the labels on the products in the store. But ivy speaks fantastic English and didn't mind telling me about the brands and ingredients. I chose a cleanser meant for sensitive skin and she recommended a few other products as well. She wasn't pushy but urged me to come buy and try others as I finished the skincare I already had at home. She had a pile of samples ready for me at the register when I was ready to checkout, and when my husband pointed out the skincare set I had at home she began asking me how I liked it and if it was working well for me. When I mentioned my disappointment with the eye cream that came with my Ohui skin set she recommended a different brand and proceeded to LOAD my bag with samples of it. This is one of the chief reasons I love stores like this, you can buy one item and walk out with a bag full of stuff. She gave me a huge sample of shampoo I'd been wanting to try, you can't beat that kind of service! I felt really welcome here, and the service I received was fantastic. I will definitely return to purchase the cream she recommended. Such a great little shop.

I love that they carry such a wide selection at very reasonable prices, making it easy to stock up without breaking the bank. It's one of those stores where I always end up discovering something new to try. If you haven't checked it out yet, it's definitely worth a visit. They also have another Shibuyala location in Rowland Heights, but I personally prefer the Arcadia location inside the mall. It's well organized, easy to browse, and there's plenty of parking around the mall, which makes shopping even more convenient. Be warned--you'll probably walk out with more than you planned to buy! Lol

Randomly came here after having Korean BBQ next door. The gate was closed the whole time so we…read moreweren't sure if they were open or whatnot but they invited us in so we went to take a look. They said they lock it because sometimes they get too busy. And given the climate of theft at stores these days I don't blame them. Staff was very nice and courteous. They made lots of suggestions asking what we might be looking for. The shop is a hodge podge of Asian imports from snacks to toys and carries a lot of beauty products. It was really messy in there and not much rhyme and reason to what they stocked in terms of toys. I found quite a few items I've never seen before especially little Sanrio plushies (I bought 3). Picked up an anime figure from Attack on Titan too and my husband bought some snacks and mints. If I were already using the beauty products I might buy them here but most of the signs and descriptions are in Chinese so I don't know what the stuff is. Another odd thing is I didn't see many price tags on things so we had to keep asking the staff about how much each thing costs. Sometimes I think they were just making it up. Will probably stop by again when in the area to support them. For us it'll just be a little treasure hunting store.

I had to stop myself from browsing too long because I would've bought way more than I planned. Happy to support a local business like this. I'd definitely go back.

Decided to stop by here because my aunt was looking for a particular product from Sulwhasoo. Being…read morecurious, I followed and found myself wanting to learn more about Korean brands. My friends always recommend Laneige, but never had the chance to actually go to an Amore store until yesterday. While my aunt shopped for her Sulwhasoo products (both makeup and skincare), I browsed through their multiple Laneige lines that include their basic skincare line, brightening/whitening, water line for hydration, radiance, and the likes. The hydration section caught my eye since I'm a sucker for hydrated, supple skin. The sales associated was very informative, and told me about each line, it's usage, and what each product's purpose is. She never pushed me to buy anything. Rather, she informed and insisted that I take a few samples if I'm still deciding. As I was still deciding, I turned around and saw their whitening line. Recently, I've been really obsessed with the color of my skin and been avoiding the sun as much as possible. I was told that Laneige's whitening line is new. It didn't help that they had cute packaging either. I ended up getting their whitening serum, which came with a mini travel size day serum, face cream, eye cream, and toner. As promised, the sales associate gave me samples of products I was eyeing earlier: one that melts blackheads and a mask. She gave me 7 samples! SEVEN! I definitely liked that they weren't stingy with samples. Also, make sure to sign up for their membership. Every dollar spent is a point added to your account.

Gosh, way to capture a new customer's interest....It's not nice to just assume the world should know everything pertaining to the brand and then treat them like inferior crap when they don't. I think I could have easily walked away with a new skincare set + makeup if she was nice enough to explain to me what the products were and give me recommendations based on my skin type - but she didn't and was so rude about it, I didn't appreciate it at all.
