Amorepacific’s dermocosmetics brand AESTURA has been named Best-Selling Dermocosmetics Facial Care Brand in Koreaⁱ based on the results of global market research database Euromonitor International.

 

Rooted in the pharmaceutical heritage from Pacificpharma and Amorepacific’s skin science expertise, AESTURA is emerging as Korea’s leading dermocosmetics brand. The brand launched ATOBARRIER Cream in 2008 for selling in dermatology clinics, and it was positively received thanks to its high product quality. With more and more consumers wanting to purchase the product in nearby retail locations, AESTURA released ATOBARRIER³⁶⁵ Cream at OliveYoung—Korea’s largest multi-brand shop channel— in 2018 to reach a wider range of customers. 

 

AESTURA’s iconic product ATOBARRIER³⁶⁵ Cream is formulated with densely structured Ceramides designed to repair damaged skin barrier. With one sold every seven seconds, the cream boasts of the highest repurchase rate among AESTURA’s products and serves as the key driver of the brand’s growth. Having won in OliveYoung’s cream category for five consecutive years, the product has ranked no. 1 this year; thus demonstrating a strong fan base. 

 

Backed by robust growth in Korea, AESTURA has launched not only in major Asian markets including Japan, Vietnam, and Thailand but also in the US where it signed an exclusive partnership with Sephora, the world’s largest beauty retailer. The brand is starting to emerge as a major global dermocosmetics brand amid the rising interest in derma skincare. 

 

“We are glad to be recognized as Korea’s leading dermocosmetic brand based on the results of Euromonitor International. We will continue to strive to provide derma solutions tailored to the needs of global consumers with sensitive skin,” a brand representative said.
