ABOUT US

WHO WE ARE
Founded over 20 years ago, as one of the first luxury, natural Korean skin care companies to combine advanced technology with powerful, rare ancient herbal medicinal formulations, we know the secret to help heal and transform your skin. Each patented formulation has over 35-65 active ingredients. Compare this with most skin care products that only contain 1-3 active ingredients. Everything about SMD Cosmetics is meticulous and held to the highest standard of excellence. In South Korea, we are the only cosmetic company, in the whole industry, to ever be awarded the prestigious Presidential Award for Excellence and Innovation. We proudly remain dedicated to being natural, safe, non-toxic, dermatologist tested, non-comedogenic, cruelty free, paraben-free, gluten-free and environmentally friendly and we never test on animals. We are a high conscious company that values ethical and socially responsible actions.
