How this board works
Using a code, step by step
- Find a code. Browse the board or search by shop, then pick a live code for YesStyle, Stylevana, Olive Young or StyleKorean.
- Copy it. Click "Copy code" on the card. It's copied to your clipboard immediately, no sign-up needed.
- Open the shop and go to checkout. Add items to your bag on the retailer's site and open your bag or checkout page.
- Paste the code and apply it. Paste it into the Rewards/Referral/Promo code box (separate from a site-wide coupon box) and apply it.
- Confirm the discount. The discount appears in your order summary before you pay. If it doesn't, the code may be expired; try another.
Two kinds of code
Referral codes are personal to one shopper. The person using the code gets a discount and the code's owner gets store credit or points. Promo codes are public promotions the retailer runs for everyone; nobody earns anything and they expire.
We don't take a cut
KBeauty Codes doesn't receive any commission when someone copies or uses a code from this board. When a referral code works, the only person who benefits is that code's owner, exactly as the retailer's own programme intends. That keeps every listing neutral: nothing here is ranked or shown because it earns the site money.
Every code is checked first
Anyone can post, but submissions go into a moderation queue. Every submission also gets an automated pre-screen score that flags things like an implausible discount or a weak submitter history and pushes the riskier ones to the top of the queue; a human still approves every code before it shows, and tests it manually when the automated signals or the early votes are unclear. After that, shoppers vote 👍 / 👎 on whether it worked, and codes that collect failures or pass their expiry date drop off automatically.
Be responsible
There is no fixed limit on how many codes one person can post. That is a deliberate choice to keep things simple, and it relies on people using common sense. Post codes you actually own or have genuinely seen work. Do not flood the board with duplicates or junk, and do not post on someone else's behalf without their permission. Moderation and community voting are the real backstop, but they work a lot better when submitters act in good faith.
Ordering
Both recency and community confidence factor into where a code sits, just weighted differently by type. Referral codes are interchangeable, so freshness leads, nudged by confidence: the most recently approved ones sit on top, rotating visibility fairly between owners. Promo codes flip that weighting, so confidence leads: ranked mainly by how sure the community is that they still work, decayed the longer it's been since that was last confirmed.
How the copy count is measured
Each card shows how many times a code has been copied, and that figure contributes to how the code ranks. To keep it accurate, only one copy per visitor is counted per day for any given code. Copying a code again, including several times in quick succession, still places it on your clipboard, but the count does not change. This prevents a code's position from being inflated by repeated clicks on the Copy button.
FAQ
- Is this site affiliated with the retailers?
- No. KBeauty Codes is an independent community board. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by YesStyle, Stylevana, Olive Young, StyleKorean or any other retailer.
- Are the codes checked?
- Anyone can submit a code, but every submission is held in a moderation queue and reviewed by a person before it appears. After that, shoppers vote on whether it worked; codes that collect failures or pass their expiry date drop off automatically.
- Why do some codes expire and others don't?
- A code personal to one shopper, like a referral code, usually keeps working indefinitely, so the person using it gets a discount and the owner earns store credit or points with no rush. A public promo code is a limited-time offer the retailer runs for everyone, so it has an expiry date and nobody earns anything from it directly.
- My code was removed, why?
- Codes come down when shoppers report them as not working, when they fail verification voting, when they duplicate an existing listing or when a retailer asks us to remove them.
