Dr.Jart+ Skincare

Dr.Jart+ is a leading global skincare brand founded in Seoul in 2004 by entrepreneur Chin Wook Lee and dermatologist Dr. Sung Jae Jung. The brand merged clinical dermatology with artistic design, gaining international fame for its innovative BB creams, Cicapair line, and Rubber Masks. It became a pioneer of the K-Beauty movement, bridging the gap between medical-grade treatments and consumer beauty products.

In 2019, the brand reached a massive milestone when the Estée Lauder Companies acquired the remaining stake in Have & Be Co., Ltd., the parent company of Dr.Jart+. This acquisition marked Estée Lauder's first purchase of an Asian beauty brand. Today, Dr.Jart+ continues to be developed primarily in South Korea to maintain its high standards of innovation and scientific formulation while being distributed through a global network.

Technically advanced and visually distinct, the brand operates as a key subsidiary within the Estée Lauder portfolio. It remains headquartered in New York for global corporate operations, while its aesthetic and research roots remain firmly planted in South Korean skincare technology.
