Rejuvenating Skin Energy through the Power of Fermentation
We love fermented ingredients. Nearly every day in our lab, we make new discoveries about the wonderful microorganisms that help invigorate our health and beauty. We have dedicated ourselves to harnessing the power of fermentation to create innovative ingredients and formulations that deliver clean, clinically-proven skin care. Inspired by artisans and advanced by science, our products are made for daily, worry-free use by all skin types, especially those with sensitive skin.
Rooted in Artisanal Heritage
For centuries, the artisans of Korea’s prestigious vinegar brewery Hanega, 107’s parent company, have been perfecting the craft of fermentation and passing down traditional wisdoms of skin and health wellness. The multi-year fermentation process for quality aged vinegar requires an extremely high level of skills and expertise. 107 embraces the quality standards, discipline requirements and traditional wisdoms of these artisans. Our skincare formulations combine aged vinegar and proprietary fermented ingredients with various other fermented extracts, probiotic ferments and prebiotic ingredients to help promote a balanced and healthy skin microbiome.
Driven By Modern Science
We are passionate about using modern science to unlock the power of fermentation, and we are proud that our standards and approach have produced award-winning products. For our formulations to pass muster, our internal 107 Lab meticulously tests and verifies that formulations are balanced, clean and clinically proven, and that they utilize ingredients in concentrations and combinations that maximize ingredient efficacy, minimize irritation risk and optimize sensorial experience. We then test all our formulations with top clinical centers to prove safety and efficacy. We strive to develop elegant and harmonious skincare formulations that not only balance what your skin needs, but also what your skin wants.
Made for Worry-Free Use
Having suffered from eczema and hyper-sensitive skin for all her life, our founder Chloe Kwak has made it her mission to develop formulations that are clean and non-irritating, yet clinically effective and pleasant to use, even for sensitive skin. We have a rigorous ingredient selection process at 107, where our scientists ensure that we use only clean and safe ingredients in our formulations. We further verify our formulations are non-irritating by conducting clinical tests such as the Human Repeat Insult Patch Test and the Dermatest® for all our skincare products. We are committed to making clean, effective skincare products that can be used daily and without worry.
