Fantastic, Baby!

Fantastic, Baby! is your one-stop shop for all things K-beauty, K-pop and birthday.

You can make a bee line through the store grabbing a card, gift, mini cake and candles all in one sweep, plus reward yourself with a coffee for being so efficient.

The shop is as whimsical as its name, pastel-coloured with a small seating area at the back.

You're immediately greeted by Mochichi, a stuffed mascot of Fantastic, Baby!'s own design.

This table is flanked by the K-beauty section, stocked with all kinds of different adorable products the staff as well as printout info will be happy to inform you about.

If your giftee is younger, go for COSRX products aimed at a wide variety of different issues. The Huxley brand is more suitable for more mature skin, and is a little pricier.

LOHN coconut wax candles cost a pretty penny, over $20 even for smaller sizes, but they're locally made, look sleek and smell amazing.
