Your next hit cosmetic, made in Korea.
Full-service cosmetics development and manufacturing in Korea, run for your brand by a team in Seoul: formula, packaging, CGMP production, certification, delivery. One partner, and it answers for all of it.
Making in Korea costs you three things: time, money, and a factory that listens.
Korea is where the breakout products come from. But factories are busy, quotes drift, and getting a manufacturer to actually build what you asked for takes someone in the room who speaks their language and knows the trade. We run every process to your brief, with the expertise to push back when a factory says no.
Why brands work with usTime: months lost before the first sample
Finding the right factory, waiting for replies, re-briefing after each misunderstanding. We shortlist in days and run sampling on an agreed schedule.
Cost: newcomer prices and hidden add-ons
Components, decoration, testing and freight quoted separately, at first-time-buyer rates. We consolidate into one quote and negotiate every line as a repeat buyer.
A factory that listens: your brief, built as specified
Factories default to what they already make. Getting a texture, active or format changed takes technical arguments in Korean, in person. That is what our team does every week.
Regulation in your market, not just Korea
MFDS, FDA, CPNP, Halal, organic. We plan compliance from the first formula so registration doesn't send you back to the lab.
Who answers when something goes wrong?
With a marketplace, nobody. With us, we do. We sign for the project, inspect production and stay through delivery.
Everything a breakout launch needs.
Use the full chain or only the pieces you're missing. One manager runs all of it, so nothing falls between vendors and nothing slows your launch.
Production at the CGMP factory that fits your product, not the one that's convenient.
We select the CGMP / ISO 22716 manufacturer for your formula, volume and target market, put our QC on the line, and send photo and video reports from every key stage.
Planning & concept
Research, positioning, line architecture and a brief factories understand.
Formulation
Custom or ready-to-brand, developed with Korea's top R&D labs.

Every component sourced, tested and scheduled, at prices usually reserved for large brands.
Certification & clinical
Safety, stability, efficacy and clinical testing; registrations for your markets.
Warehousing & logistics
Bonded storage, export docs, freight to your 3PL or marketplace.
Localization
Labels, claims and positioning adapted to your market, not copied from Korea.
Or hand us the whole thing.
Brief us once. We run it end to end and report every week.
Custom tip · stock bottlePackaging is where launches slip. We run that too.
One product can need a bottle, pump, cap, tube, carton, insert and label from five suppliers on five schedules, each with its own MOQ and lead time. We source, sample, test and sequence all of it so the parts arrive at the factory when the bulk is ready.
Many parts, one schedule
Every component gets its own line on one timeline. We chase each supplier, flag the long-lead items first and keep filling from waiting on a cap.
One contact, not dozens
Hundreds of Korean container, pump, tube and carton makers. We know who is strong in which format and finish, and you talk to one manager.
Formats and finishes
Bottles, jars, tubes, airless, droppers and sprayers. Silk screen, hot stamp, coating and labels. Stock for speed, custom molds when you need to stand out.
Tested before you order
Formula-container compatibility and transport tests, so a mild or active-rich formula doesn't react with its pack after you've committed.
Built to launch, not just to list.
Platforms let you browse. We get your product made, certified and on the shelf. Five things that separate a listing from a partner.
Access & price
We select CGMP manufacturers and first-tier component suppliers for your brief and negotiate as a repeat buyer, so you pay partner prices, not newcomer prices.
End to end
Planning, formula, packaging, production, testing, storage and shipping on one timeline, from one team.
Compliance built in
Certification and clinical testing are planned from day one, with a market-specific checklist you can see before shipment.
Organic & baby, when you want it
Conventional, clean or fully certified organic: your call. If you choose COSMOS, ECOCERT or an infant-safe standard, we plan the route from raw materials to the factories that pass audit.
Someone who answers
A named manager in Seoul who speaks your language, visits the factory, inspects production and owns the outcome.
Where the next big categories are.
Any ODM can make a sheet mask. Certified organic, baby and derma are where margins, loyalty and trust are highest, and where most factories can't follow. That's where we're strongest.
01Organic & cleanOrganic that actually certifies
COSMOS Organic, ECOCERT and USDA programmes run end to end: certified raw materials, audited factories, claims that survive review.
02Baby & kidsInfant-safe from the first draft
Minimal-ingredient, allergen-controlled formulas with pediatric-grade testing and packaging built for parents.
03Derma & sensitiveClinically backed skincare
Barrier-repair and soothing lines with efficacy trials designed around the claims you want to print.

What is the minimum order quantity?
How long does a first product take?
Who owns the formula?
How do you charge?
Can you handle registration in my country?
Do you work with first-time founders?
