International natural health care brand has recently announced the impending release of a groundbreaking new skin care line aimed directly at the Korean beauty and skin care market. The South Korean skin care market is one of the top ten largest markets in the world, with an estimated annual worth of more than $13 billion USD, on which the new Mannatech Luminovation aims to capitalize.
The introduction of the new US-based skin care range to the South Korean market is at odds with the industry norm, which has seen a flood of Korean-based skin care solutions enter the US market. Target, Sephora, and Urban Outfitters have all begun stocking a wide range of Korean skin care and beauty products in response to increased Western demand.
The Mannatech brand, however, is uniquely aligned with the Korean approach to skin care, which incorporate hanbang, or traditional Korean herbal medicine practices. The Korean skin care market focuses on cosmetic enhancement through the application of natural herbal ingredients such as bamboo extract, green tea, ginseng, and fermentation processes.
Mannatech reflects similar values in their approach to skin care, integrating organic and natural ingredients alongside herbal extractions to promote both inner and outer beauty and health. The chemical and paraben free composition of Mannatech products also aligns with the Korean beauty market, in which parabens are not used due to widespread allergic responses.
