About

From one lab in Seoul

Hanskin is a Korean skincare brand founded in 2001 and best known as the creator of the first mass-market BB cream. It is chosen in the USA, Europe, China, across Asia and the Middle East, and in 2026 the brand officially enters the Russian market for the first time. We are the brand's official distributor in Russia: every product on this site and at our partners is supplied directly and certified.

Heritage

Hanskin – the brand that gave the world the BB cream

In 2004 Hanskin was the first to create and bring BB cream to the mass market, combining professional dermatological technology with daily skincare and makeup. The principle has not changed since: do not mask the skin, let it glow.

Approach

Why Hanskin?

01

Visible results

A salon-care effect: healthy, firm skin with a natural glow from within and clean pores – after two weeks of regular care*.

02

Science over marketing

Stable formulas, liposomes, micro-needles, fermentation – actives get inside rather than sitting on the surface.

03

A pleasure to use

Melting oils, hydrating essences and silky creams turn daily care into a self-care ritual.

04

Clean formulas, nothing extra

Only working concentrations of actives – no parabens, sulphates or mineral oils.

* When the five-step sequence and directions are followed at least once a day for 14 days.

Why Hanskin

Actives and technologies, kind to skin

People choose Hanskin for formulas where actives deliver results without harming the skin barrier: gentle PHA exfoliation, multi-weight hyaluron and stable vitamin C. With regular care, the first visible changes appear within two weeks*.

* When the five-step sequence and directions are followed at least once a day for 14 days.

Polyhydroxy acid

The gentlest generation of chemical exfoliants – larger molecules resurface without the sting of AHAs, even for reactive skin.

Low-irritation exfoliation

Multi-weight hyaluron

Several molecular weights layer hydration from the surface down – instant plumping on top, lasting moisture below.

Deep, lasting hydration

Encapsulated vitamin C

Vitamin C sealed in protective capsules stays potent until the moment of application: glow and even tone – without the instability and sting of pure ascorbic acid.

Stable, gentle glow

All active ingredients

A scientific approach

Hanskin products are tested for hypoallergenicity and irritation, and several formulas are registered in Korea as functional cosmetics for brightening and anti-wrinkle care. How each active works and which step to use it in is explained in K-Beauty Science.

Makeup

BB and DD: care beneath the tint

Hanskin began with a hybrid of skincare and makeup and keeps that principle in every tinted product: coverage does not fight the skin, it keeps caring for it.

BB cream – Blemish Balm

Blemish balm was born in dermatology as a product that soothes skin after treatments and hides redness. Hanskin made it a global category: BB cream evens the tone, protects from the sun and cares for the skin all day.

DD cream – Daily Defense

The next generation of tinted products after BB and CC: coverage that evens the tone combined with daily defense and care. The creamy Code-On formula applies with full but natural coverage and looks great on camera.
