If you’ve been following Iyvos for a while, you’ll know that our mission has always been simple: to create science-backed skincare that delivers real results. But behind every product you see on our shelves is a long journey of research, development, and choosing the right people to partner with.
Over the past year, I’ve been working behind the scenes to find the perfect lab to bring the next evolution of Iyvos to life. As a founder with a clinical background, this decision wasn’t just about business. It was about integrity, results, and staying true to the core values that shaped Iyvos from day one.
So why Korea?
Let me take you behind the scenes of one of the most important decisions I’ve made for the future of our brand.
The Global Search for the Right Skincare Partner
In early 2023, I began conversations with some of the most respected skincare labs across the world—Australia, the U.S., France, Italy, and Korea.
Each lab had their strengths. Some were deeply rooted in traditional formulations. Others had incredible new technologies. But I wasn’t just looking for impressive facilities or trendy ingredients—I was looking for a partner. A team who shared the same commitment to skin health, transparency, and evidence-based results.
I wanted a lab that would treat Iyvos not as just another project, but as a vision to be brought to life. A partner who understood that skincare is not just cosmetic—it’s clinical, emotional, and deeply personal for the people who use it every day.
The Power of Korean Skincare Innovation
Korea quickly became a standout.
Known globally for their innovation and leadership in skincare, Korean labs are at the forefront of cosmetic science. They’re not just creating skincare—they’re defining what the future of skincare looks like.
To put it into perspective:
🇰🇷 Korea holds over 30,000 active cosmetic R&D patents
🇰🇷 Invests billions annually into skincare research and biotechnology
🇰🇷 And has developed some of the most advanced ingredient delivery systems in the industry
From encapsulated retinoids and fermented actives to regenerative peptides and microbiome-friendly formulations, Korea leads with innovation, not imitation. Their labs understand that modern skincare is about more than what’s on the surface—it’s about skin function, long-term health, and creating formulas that actually work.
As someone who has worked in skin clinics and seen firsthand the transformation that quality products can deliver, I knew Korean manufacturing was the right move for Iyvos. It wasn’t just about keeping up with innovation. It was about staying true to the science and raising our own standards along the way.
What Stood Out the Most
From our very first meeting with our Korean lab, the difference was clear.
✅ Communication was seamless
✅ They offered solutions before we even asked the questions
✅ They understood our ingredient philosophy and respected our standards
✅ Most importantly—they truly cared about the skin results we wanted to deliver
They didn’t just pitch us a catalogue of ready-made formulas. They asked questions. They brought insights. They listened. They were collaborative from day one. It was clear they understood our why, and they wanted to help us build on it—not change it.
That level of alignment is rare, and when you find it, you don’t let it go.
Will Iyvos Products Change?
With this new partnership, some of our formulations will now be manufactured in Korea—and I want to personally reassure our community: this is a leap forward.
Every formula will still reflect the high-performance, cosmeceutical-grade skincare you know and love. But with Korea’s advanced R&D capabilities, they’ll now have access to even more cutting-edge technology, ingredient delivery systems, and efficacy testing.
These aren't just updates. They’re upgrades. Our products will be:
✨ More effective
✨ More targeted
✨ Backed by even deeper science
We're still rooted in results. We're just bringing in even more power behind those results.
A New Era for Iyvos
Our move to Korea marks a defining moment for Iyvos—a new chapter rooted in innovation, intention, and elevated results.
Partnering with one of the most advanced skincare labs in the world has allowed us to deepen our commitment to creating products that don’t just sit on the surface. Everything we offer at Iyvos is designed to work with your skin, not against it. To support its natural function, strengthen its barrier, and enhance its overall vitality.
Korea is globally recognised for pushing the boundaries of skincare science, and this new collaboration reflects that same spirit within our brand. From formulation to finish, every Iyvos product is developed with precision, backed by clinical expertise, and elevated through the lens of beauty and performance.
We’re not here to follow trends. We’re here to set a new standard. Where results and real skin co-exist.
If you’ve been looking for skincare that supports skin health, delivers visible results, and feels beautiful to use—what we’ve built is made for you.
And this is only the beginning.
Why This Matters to You
At the heart of everything we do at Iyvos is you. Your skin, your confidence, your wellness journey.
This decision to partner with Korea wasn’t made lightly—it was made with your trust in mind. We know that choosing skincare is personal. And we never take that trust for granted.
What this means for you is better-performing products, more innovation, and even more transparency about how your skincare is made. It means being part of a brand that is always growing but never losing sight of what matters—your results and your experience.
We’re here to raise the bar for clinical-grade, results-driven skincare. And now, we’ve got the right partner to help us do it.
Thank You for Being on This Journey
To everyone who has been part of Iyvos since the beginning, thank you. Your belief in what we do, your feedback, and your love for the products—that’s what fuels us.
This chapter is a big one, and I couldn’t be more excited to bring you along for it. What’s coming next is a continuation of everything we stand for: integrity, impact, and skincare that truly works.
With love,
Gabrielle Singh
Founder, Iyvos
