WEEK 2 — Who’s Next?
Theme: Rising Ingredients and Innovators
Keynote: The 2026 K-Beauty Ingredient Roadmap by Trendier AI
- Discover the top ingredient clusters and biotech innovations driving 2026’s skincare evolution.
- Understand how functionality, mildness, and clinical credibility are shaping next-gen product demand.
- See how data-backed formulation strategies are helping brands move from local success to global recognition.
Drawing from Trendier AI’s Ingredient Roadmap, leading K-Beauty brands are advancing skincare innovation for 2026 through four key directions:
- Soothing & Skin Recovery
As soothing care becomes a core focus in skincare innovation, K-Beauty brands like Dewytree and TREEANNSEA are advancing gentle, hydrating formulas powered by amino acids and natural exfoliants to calm, clarify, and strengthen sensitive skin.
- Gentle Exfoliation
The pore care segment is advancing toward milder, efficacy-driven solutions that combine exfoliation with hydration. Brands like Mask King and Jincostech exemplify this shift, applying ingredient research and formulation science to develop exfoliating systems that enhance skin texture while maintaining tolerance and daily usability.
- Age-Resilient Barrier Care
The anti-aging category is evolving toward gentle, barrier-strengthening solutions that combine plant stem cells, ceramides, and probiotics to enhance skin resilience and elasticity. This approach reflects K-Beauty’s growing focus on low-irritation, clinically supported renewal that promotes firmness without compromising skin comfort.
- Dark Spots & Brightening
The brightening segment is evolving toward hydration-based radiance, led by brands like Dear Ohneul, 9wishes, and SKIN&LAB. Their formulations blend vitamin C, glutathione, and hyaluronic acid to unify skin tone and enhance luminosity, reflecting K-Beauty’s shift from traditional whitening to clinically backed, barrier-strengthening glow care.
These ingredient-led directions reflect how K-Beauty continues to merge science and sensoriality, shaping the core of 2026’s global skincare innovation.
