May 2025, NO.18

Hi, how are you?

 As the trend of quiet luxury—refined elegance without excess—continues to grow, products that achieve the glass skin look, characterized by radiant and luminous skin, are expanding beyond K-beauty into the global market.

 Sunjin Beauty Science defines radiant skin through two key concepts—Inner Glow, which emanates from deep within the skin, and Glossy Glow, which delivers instant luminosity on the surface. Based on these principles, we offer customized solutions to help achieve the perfect Glass Look.

 In particular, EZLite-SF, an enzyme-processed oil developed using bio-conversion technology, enhances skin absorption while delivering a lighter sensory profile across various formulations. Leveraging Sunjin Beauty Science’s proprietary technology, its molecular weight is precisely adjusted to minimize stickiness and create a fresh, lightweight feel, while also contributing to a smoother increase in formulation viscosity for improved texture stability.

 We are also pleased to introduce the SFGEL series, a line of natural elastomers developed under a silicone-free concept. SFGEL is compatible with a wide range of formulations and enables the creation of a luxurious, smooth texture. With excellent spreadability and a skin-smoothing effect, it is an ideal ingredient for developing products with a premium sensorial experience.

 Sunjin Beauty Science continues to strengthen its global presence through close collaboration with partners around the world. Through ongoing technical exchanges and joint development, we are committed to delivering innovative beauty solutions that meet the evolving needs of the global cosmetics industry.

 In May and June 2025, Sunjin Beauty Science will participate in major global exhibitions including ICI Jakarta, CITE Japan, and NYSCC, where we will showcase our latest technologies and products aligned with key K-beauty trends.

April 2025, NO.17

Hi, how are you?

We’re excited to introduce a refreshingly clear gel cream that delivers a powerful surge of hydration—now with even greater formulation stability thanks to Sunjin’s premium silica.

Pore Blur Blemish Cream formulation contains the premium silica, SUNSIL-LUX150H, which exhibits amphiphilic properties. SUNSIL-LUX150H positions itself at the interface and acts as a Pickering emulsifier, resulting in excellent emulsion stability and enabling the creation of a more robust and stable formulation.

This premium silica, SUNSIL-LUX150H, features an ultra-smooth surface that enhances the sensorial feel of the formulation. Additionally, compared to conventional silica, it offers superior transparency, allowing for the creation of a cleaner and clearer formulation.

Pore Blur Blemish Cream is packed with 72% water, flooding the skin with moisture the moment it touches your face. Its fresh, lightweight texture instantly quenches dryness, leaving the skin silky-smooth and visibly refined. To top it off, the formula features high oil-absorption silica, which helps soak up excess sebum for a shine-free finish, while minimizing stickiness for a more comfortable, breathable feel.

Pore Blur Blemish Cream maximizes the multiple benefits of SUNSIL-LUX150H, including transparency, emulsion stability, sebum absorption, and enhanced sensorial feel. Now, create differentiated products with Sunjin Beauty Science’s premium silica!

The Secret Behind Sunjin’s Silica and Its Manufacturing Edge

By Jeong, Areum
Translated By Ko, Eunyoung
April 2025, NO.16

Hi, how are you?

In this issue, we would like to take a closer look at why Sunjin Beauty Science’s silica holds a distinct competitive advantage over others in the industry.

The key lies in our state-of-the-art Janghang Smart Factory, which was completed in 2019. By applying a vertical manufacturing process to powder production such as silica, we have maximized production efficiency.

This vertical process is a rare and innovative approach, even on a global scale, and serves as a major factor in securing our exceptional manufacturing competitiveness. The combination of the latest equipment and vertical integration enables truly outstanding production capabilities.

In addition, our silica is produced in a smart factory environment equipped with a fully integrated management system. A centralized control room precisely oversees the entire manufacturing process, maximizing efficiency and ensuring a stable supply of consistently high-quality products.

Sunjin Beauty Science offers a diverse silica portfolio, including uncoated types, methicone- and cetyl alcohol-coated silica, as well as the SUNSIL-LUX series with exceptional transparency.

Recently, we launched silica SH305, which delivers excellent soft-focus effects and has been well received in the market.

Furthermore, we are planning to release a new silica product within this year, with an oil absorption capacity dramatically enhanced to over 3.0 cc/g. We sincerely appreciate your continued interest and support.

 If you have any inquiries, please feel free to contact us.

Introducing SH305: A Natural Soft-Focus Ingredient Made with 100% of Silica!

By Kim, DongBok
Translated By Lee, James
April 2025, NO.15

Hi, how are you?

 In this issue, we are excited to introduce SH305 which is our innovative new product made with 100% of pure silica, delivering outstanding soft-focus effects.

 What is Soft-Focus?
 Soft-focus is a technology that uses the principles of light refraction and diffusion to naturally blur skin imperfections while subtly enhancing skin tone. SH305 features a uniquely engineered surface structure that effectively scatters light, delivering a natural blurring effect. It helps create a smooth and even skin texture, enhancing facial contours for a more refined and naturally radiant complexion.

 Despite being made entirely of silica, SH305 delivers soft-focus performance on par with our existing product SH219(Silica, Titanium Dioxide). This outstanding effect is achieved through a specialized processing technique that optimizes the surface roughness of the silica, allowing it to effectively scatter light and enhance soft-focus capabilities.

 For customers who have hesitated to use SH219 due to concerns over the safety of Titanium Dioxide, SH305 offers the ideal alternative. Formulated with 100% silica, SH305 delivers outstanding soft-focus performance without the need for TiO₂. It is a safe, eco-conscious ingredient designed to meet the growing demand for clean and reliable cosmetic solutions.

The key ingredient in SH305, silica, is an abundant and eco-friendly resource found in nature, making it an ideal choice for developing clean beauty products.
 With SH305, you can create sustainable and innovative beauty formulations that meet the demands of today’s conscious consumers.

By Lee, James
March 2025, NO.12

Hi, how are you?

 In this issue, we are excited to introduce the key ingredient for sunscreen serum formulations, one of the K-Beauty Hot Trends. The product lineup includes our Silica Capsules: SUNSIL-S, SUNSIL-AB, SUNSIL-EHT, SUNSIL-DHHB, and SUNSIL-BLP.

 Silica Capsule series consists of ingredients where chemical UV filters are encapsulated in silica. This product is designed to enable the use of chemical sunscreens, typically used in oil phase of the formulations, in water phase.

When comparing formulations with the same concentration of BEMT, a chemical UV filter, to those with Silica Capsules containing BEMT, the formulations with Silica Capsules demonstrated significantly superior UV protection.

  In addition, by using Silica Capsules in water phase of the formulations, it is possible to develop a formula with a lightweight texture and non-sticky feeling.

 Furthermore, we have confirmed that formulations with Silica Capsules offer superior formulation stability compared to those using conventional chemical UV filters.

Translated By Ko, Eunyoung
March 2025, NO.11

Hi, how are you?

In this issue, we introduce the ‘Glowmorous Lip Balm,’ a revolutionary product that delivers exceptional hydration and long-lasting moisture, thanks to the innovative enzyme oil, EZlite-SF.

 The Glowmorous Lip Balm is formulated with EZlite-SF, a newly launched enzyme oil introduced in the latter half of last year. EZlite-SF provides an incredibly lightweight, refreshing feel while ensuring long-lasting hydration.

 A transepidermal water loss (TEWL) test has shown that lip balms containing EZlite-SF significantly reduce moisture loss over time compared to sunflower oil-based lip balms. This confirms that EZlite-SF delivers superior hydration and extended moisture retention.

EZlite-SF is developed using Sunjin Beauty Science’s exclusive Smart Scissor Technology. This technology finely breaks down oil molecules, offering an exceptionally lightweight and non-sticky application.

Global Regulations on ‘Forever Chemicals’ PFAS in Cosmetics

By Shin, Hanbyul
Translated By Ko, Eunyoung
March 2025, NO.9

Hi, how are you?

In this issue, we will explore the global regulatory trends on per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), commonly known as “Forever Chemicals”, which have been increasingly restricted worldwide in recent years.

 PFAS are synthetic organofluorine compounds known for their strong resistance to water, oil, chemicals, and heat. Due to these properties, they are widely used in food packaging, coatings, detergents, and cosmetics. In particular, PFAS are found in cosmetic products that require high durability and wear resistance.

Because of their extremely stable chemical structure, PFAS do not break down easily in nature. As a result, they contribute to environmental pollution and bioaccumulation issues. Due to these concerns, there has been a surge in customer inquiries and requests for statements regarding PFAS worldwide.

 On February 20th, the French National Assembly passed a bill banning the use of PFAS in cosmetics. Starting in 2026, the manufacture and sale of all cosmetics containing PFAS will be restricted in France. While some PFAS are already regulated as prohibited ingredients in cosmetics in countries such as Korea, the United States, and across Europe, both the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are conducting additional safety assessments. As a result, broader regulations on PFAS are expected to be introduced after 2026.

At Sunjin Beauty Science, we are strengthening our monitoring of products with a high likelihood of PFAS contamination. Additionally, we issue PFAS-Free statements upon customer request. We are committed to thorough management, from raw materials to manufacturing and packaging processes, to prevent cross-contamination and ensure the supply of PFAS-free products.

If you have any inquiries, please feel free to contact us.
