About
Information: Korea Tourism Organization (TourAPI)My K-Beauty Discovered Through Color
Cocory Color Hongdae is an experiential K-beauty space that analyzes suitable colors and styles based on individual skin tones and facial and body characteristics. It examines brightness, saturation, and color tendencies through skin color analysis and color draping, providing results that can be applied in daily life, such as lip, accessory, hair, and makeup colors.
In addition to the basic personal color program, it operates on a reservation basis for services like facial and body analysis, makeup and feature analysis, personal makeup, and integrated packages.
The program can be provided in Korean, English, Chinese, or Japanese, making it accessible for foreign tourists. It is a great experiential location that can be linked to shopping and sightseeing schedules, guiding individuals on color and design directions to utilize the consultation results in fashion and beauty product selections.
Reservations can be made by selecting the program, date, and language on the official website.
