Is Korean Beauty by Mishil really Korean?

Absolutely, Korean Beauty by Mishil is a true embodiment of Korean skincare ethos.

At Mishil, we understand that skincare is a language that transcends borders.

This unique approach ensures that, no matter where you are in the world, you can experience the authentic charm and benefits of Korean skincare.

What is the country of origin of your products?

Selectively sourced from Korea and blended in the US, our products are lovingly crafted with a global touch.

At Mishil, our products are the result of a global collaboration, rooted in the essence of Korean skincare. 

While the soul of our products is undeniably Korean, stemming from the select ingredients we source directly from Korea, the final crafting of these treasures happens closer to home. This approach allows us to intricately weave the authenticity of K-Beauty with the practicality and accessibility needed in today's fast-paced world.

Our manufacturing process is a delicate dance of embracing the best from both worlds. By blending and creating our products closer to our diverse customer base, we ensure that each bottle and jar of Mishil skincare meets our rigorous quality standards while remaining attainable and relevant globally. 

This dual approach to sourcing and production reflects our commitment to delivering the true spirit of Korean skincare to beauty enthusiasts everywhere, without borders or barriers. 

So, when you choose Mishil, you're choosing a brand that respects the heritage of Korean beauty while embracing the efficiency and innovation of global practices.

What does 'select ingredients from Korea' mean?

Seen on all of our bottles, "Select ingredients from Korea" is a phrase that encapsulates our dedication to authenticity and efficacy in skincare. 

It means we thoughtfully choose certain Korean ingredients known for their traditional benefits and proven effectiveness. These ingredients are the essence of our products, bringing the authentic touch of K-Beauty to our formulations. 

Equally, to ensure that our products are not just effective but also accessible, we harmoniously blend these Korean ingredients with high-quality components sourced from around the globe. This approach allows us to strike a perfect balance, offering products that are deeply rooted in Korean skincare heritage while catering to the practical needs and preferences of our diverse clientele. 

Our goal is to deliver skincare that respects tradition but is designed for today's global user – effective, accessible, and imbued with the spirit of K-Beauty. So far, we feel we can humbly say that we’ve achieved that ideal.

Why only 31% organic?

In the realm of skincare, the term "organic" often sparkles with idealistic charm. 

At Mishil, we take pride in our 31% organic content; a figure that we feel is emblematic of our dedication to honesty and transparency. In a beauty world where definitions can be stretched, we stand firm in our truth. 

Achieving 100% organic status in skincare can be a complex challenge, fraught with practical hurdles. However, we're not ones to shy away from a challenge. Our 31% is a testament to our ongoing quest to blend efficacy with ethical sourcing, continuously seeking ways to elevate this percentage. This commitment ensures that while we're nurturing your skin with nature's purest offerings, we're also staying true to our promise of effectiveness. 

On this evolving journey of organic beauty, every step we take is towards increasing this percentage, always with the integrity and effectiveness of our products at the forefront.

Are your products vegan-friendly?

Absolutely, our Korean skincare range is fully vegan-friendly — down to the last drop. 

Our commitment to crafting skincare that respects all forms of life is woven into the very fabric of our brand. Each product in our range is a testament to our dedication to cruelty-free and ethical practices. 

We meticulously select ingredients that not only meet but exceed vegan standards, ensuring that our offerings are not only kind to your skin but also kind to the planet and its inhabitants. Our approach to beauty is holistic, recognizing that true care extends beyond the surface, honoring the harmony between nature and skincare. 

This commitment to vegan-friendly products is part of our mission to provide skincare that is as compassionate as it is effective, allowing you to indulge in the luxury of Mishil with a heart full of peace and a conscience as clear as your skin.

What's 'mixed molecular weight' hyaluronic acid, and what does it do?

'Mixed molecular weight' hyaluronic acid in our products refers to using hyaluronic acid of various sizes. This innovative approach allows for multi-level skin hydration, targeting different layers of the skin. 

Smaller molecules penetrate deeper for internal hydration, while larger molecules provide surface-level moisture, ensuring comprehensive skin hydration and rejuvenation.

This stands in contrast to the usual practice of using only a single molecular weight of hyaluronic acid — an approach that isn’t altogether without merit, but misses out on much of the true hydrating potential of this potent ingredient.


In Closing

And that, dear friends, concludes our exploration through the essence of our little world here at Mishil. 

We hope these answers have lit the way to a deeper understanding and appreciation of our skincare philosophy. 

Keep radiating your inner light, and we hope you’ll trust us to gently guide your skin's journey to its most luminous destination.
