Launched in 2018 by former COSRX sustainability director Park Ji-hyun, Makeprem pioneered Korea’s first “Safe Beauty” standard, excluding 1,642 questionable ingredients and developing a solar-powered factory in Incheon that generates 1.2MW annually. The brand’s UV Defense Me Sunscreen revolutionized mineral UV filters by coating non-nano zinc oxide with cottonseed oil—a patented “Safe Screen™” technology that enhances SPF performance without white cast while passing both EU and Australian TGA water resistance tests. Makeprem’s aluminum tubes feature a potato starch-based laminate, making them fully recyclable, and its ethical framework includes donating 3% of profits to marine conservation and granting equity shares to all employees.
