Every year at the end of November, the retailer holds the “Olive Young Awards”, an event that celebrates the top-selling products of the year. The results of 2022 are based on the analysis of over 100 million purchase data collected since January 2022.

Since they’re based on real purchase data, industry experts consider the “Olive Young Awards” especially important because they paint a realistic picture of the latest trends in Korean beauty.
