Powerful Ingredients for Every Skin Concern

Korean Skincare by Active Ingredients

Understanding active ingredients is the foundation of an effective skincare routine. Korean beauty brands are known for combining traditional botanical knowledge with modern dermatological research, resulting in products that deliver visible improvements while respecting the skin's natural barrier.

Niacinamide is one of the most versatile ingredients in Korean skincare. Also known as vitamin B3, it helps regulate sebum production, minimize the appearance of pores and even out skin tone. You will find it in our niacinamide collection, featuring serums, toners and creams from trusted Korean brands like COSRX, Beauty of Joseon and Anua.

Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant prized for its brightening and protective properties. Korean vitamin C formulations are designed for gentle daily use, making them suitable for sensitive skin types. Browse our vitamin C collection for lightweight serums and essences that promote a radiant, luminous complexion.

Hyaluronic acid remains one of the most trusted hydrating ingredients worldwide. It attracts and retains moisture in the skin, creating a plump, dewy appearance. Korean skincare products often use multiple molecular weights of hyaluronic acid for multi-level hydration. Explore our hyaluronic acid collection for deep hydration solutions.

Salicylic acid (BHA) is essential for anyone dealing with blackheads, whiteheads or congested pores. As a beta hydroxy acid, it penetrates oil to exfoliate inside the pore, making it effective for oily and acne-prone skin. Our salicylic acid collection features gentle yet effective exfoliating products from Korean brands renowned for their balanced formulations.

Retinol is widely recognized as one of the most effective anti-aging ingredients. It accelerates cell turnover, reduces the appearance of fine lines and supports collagen production. Korean retinol products are often formulated with soothing ingredients like centella asiatica and panthenol to minimize irritation. Discover our retinol collection for products suitable for retinol beginners and experienced users alike.

Ceramides play a crucial role in maintaining the skin barrier. They help lock in moisture and protect the skin from environmental stressors. Korean ceramide products are ideal for dry, compromised or sensitive skin. Our ceramides collection includes barrier-strengthening creams, toners and serums.

Collagen supports skin elasticity and firmness. While topical collagen helps improve moisture retention and smoothness, many Korean brands also offer ingestible collagen supplements for a comprehensive approach. Find collagen-infused skincare in our collagen collection.

By exploring products organized by active ingredients, you can build a targeted routine that addresses your specific skin concerns — whether that is brightening, anti-aging, hydration, acne control or barrier repair. All products in this collection are authentic, sourced directly from Korea and delivered across Europe.
