  • HydrogenZen Revolutionizes Skincare with ‘The First Essence’ for Antioxidant Protection

    Cosmetics company LOEWE announced the launch of a new antioxidant skincare brand, HydrogenZen, with its first product, HydrogenZen The First Essence, released on the 22nd.

    HydrogenZen The First Essence is a hydrogen-based essence that has scientifically proven its ability to stabilize hydrogen and enhance the skin’s antioxidant mechanisms through extensive testing.

    This product contains 2 billion hydrogen nanobubble capsules that help eliminate free radicals, penetrate deeply into the skin layers, and provide powerful antioxidant effects, resulting in a healthier, more vibrant skin transformation.

    Additionally, the essence maximizes hydrogen stability through a patented nanobubble generation device and encapsulation process. It also contains three key antioxidant ingredients—epigallocatechin gallate, quercetin, and rutin—to provide skin hydration, elasticity, and antioxidant improvement.

    A representative from HydrogenZen stated, “We developed this hydrogen essence to strengthen the antioxidant defense of skin, which is often irritated due to frequent environmental changes, and to help maintain healthier skin.” They also added, “By excluding parabens, fragrances, artificial dyes, oils, and purified water, we aim to restore the skin’s balance and vitality with HydrogenZen The First Essence for healthier skin.”

    CJ Olive Young opened a personal-care pop-up store “HEBA Lounge” at Trendpot by Olive Young in Hongdae on the 10th, running through October 26.

    Inspired by trending social media keywords like Skinification and GlassHair, the event highlights the growing interest in hair and body care routines.

    Participating brands include Labo H, Pino, Illiyoon, and Nutserin, offering around 40 products from Olive Young’s leading personal-care lines. Visitors can experience customized care programs targeting concerns such as hairline coverage, damaged hair, body firmness, and skin balance.

    Divided into four experiential zones, the pop-up begins with a brief checklist at reception, after which attendees receive tailored beauty recommendations.

    Interactive programs such as the “Hairline Filling Experience” and “Damaged Hair Ribbon Tunnel” allow visitors to test flagship products firsthand.

  • ONE THING Launches Dual-Action Peptide Retinal Mist for Multi-Skin Concerns

    Aekyung Industrial’s skincare brand ONE THING announced on the 24th the launch of its “Peptide Retinal Mist.”

    This new product is formulated with a five-layer complex peptide and retinal, which minimizes skin irritation. It’s a dual-function cosmetic that addresses multiple aging concerns, such as wrinkles, elasticity, skin density, pores, and skin tone, offering both whitening and wrinkle improvement benefits.

    In particular, the product has shown significant improvement in various categories through human application tests, including crow’s feet wrinkles (105.59%), skin density (104.64%), vertical pore area (111.76%), facial lifting (107.39%), and skin brightness (102.10%). The product has also passed the sensitive skin irritation test, making it suitable for delicate skin.

    A unique feature of this mist is its dual formulation of cream and ampoule, delivered in a fine mist spray. It is gently applied to the skin, quickly absorbed, and forms a seamless moisture barrier that helps maintain a hydrated skin condition for longer.

  • Vegan-Certified POINT Mascara Remover Sells 50,000 Units Nationwide

    The cleansing brand POINT’s “Deep Clean Quick Mascara Remover” became a hit at Daiso, selling out all 50,000 units both online and offline.

    Launched in June, the product quickly gained attention on social media for offering “performance comparable to high-end brands” at a “reasonable price.” Within three weeks, Daiso Mall sold out, and by early September, the entire supply was gone.

    With its smudge-free gel texture and comb-type applicator, it effectively removes even waterproof mascara while being gentle on the eyes. Priced at just 5,000 KRW, it also includes moisturizing and nourishing ingredients for lash care. Certified by the Korea Vegan Certification Institute, the product resonates with the growing trend of value-driven consumption.

    A brand representative said, “By focusing on vegan certification and skin irritation tests, we saw an enthusiastic response, especially among Gen Z consumers,” adding that a second stock was quickly replenished after the initial sell-out.

    This success highlights how affordable pricing and reliable product quality strongly appeal to younger consumers.
