About Us
Glow With Intention. Powered by Korean Science.
Gymsegbe is a science-first Korean skincare brand built on the principles of clean Korean formulations, clinical performance, and total skin respect. We create potent, dermatologist-developed routines for anti-aging, dark spot correction, hydration, and skin barrier repair—especially for sensitive, aging, damaged, dull, and melanin-rich skin.
Every product is crafted with rigorously selected ingredients like niacinamide, peptides, snail mucin, caviar, hyaluronic acid, ginseng, glycolic acid, Centella Asiatica, and more. Our mission is simple: help you achieve visible results—safely, gently, and consistently.

Our Story
Gymsegbe was founded by a bi-racial woman of Asian and African descent, on a mission to bring inclusive, high-performing skincare to the forefront. Frustrated by the lack of products that truly addressed melanin-rich and sensitive skin types, she worked with top Korean dermatologists and chemists to create solutions that are gentle yet effective across skin tones and concerns.
Unlike many Korean skincare products that are pulled off the shelf without research, every Gymsegbe product is clinically-developed and rigorously tested over years, on real people from diverse backgrounds and skin conditions. After over 14 formulation trials, we launched products with proven results, real science, and real love.
Our Standards
- ✅ At least 4% niacinamide in every product to fight aging at the root
- ✅ Backed by over 60 potent plant and fruit extracts
- ✅ Always cruelty-free, dermatologist-tested, and non-irritating
- ✅ No synthetic dyes, parabens, or unnecessary fillers
Meet the Founders
While Gymsegbe is proudly woman-founded, it is also co-owned by a U.S. Navy veteran who brings a commitment to discipline, detail, and community-centered values. Together, our founders are united in their mission to make glow-inclusive, high-performance skincare accessible to all.
What’s Next?
We're just getting started. Gymsegbe is expanding our product line to address new skin concerns while continuing our commitment to clean, potent, and clinically-backed skincare. As part of our purpose-driven mission, we donate 5% of all profits to childhood cancer research.
