I'm From

I'm From is the brand for ingredient purists. Every product highlights one hero ingredient sourced from a specific Korean location, and they actually tell you where it comes from. The Honey Mask, Rice Toner, and Mugwort Essence are all legitimate cult classics. Quality is consistently high.

Pros

✓ Full ingredient traceability and sourcing transparency
✓ Honey, rice, and mugwort lines are all excellent
✓ Gentle enough for sensitive skin
✓ Clean, no-nonsense formulations

Cons

✗ Limited product range per ingredient line
✗ Some products feel basic for the price
✗ Availability can be inconsistent
✗ Packaging is functional, not luxurious

Mediheal

Mediheal is the top-selling skincare brand at Olive Young for two years running — beating more than 3,000 brands. Their sheet masks created the modern sheet mask category, and their Madecassoside Blemish Pad saw 820% year-over-year growth.
