Dr. Jart+ started with a simple idea: skincare backed by dermatology, delivered with creativity. Founded in 2005 by architect-turned-beauty entrepreneur Leeo (Chin Wook) Lee, the brand set out to merge science and design, creating high-performance formulas with an artistic touch. The name—short for “Doctor Joins Art”—captures this fusion, bringing clinical innovation to everyday skincare.
Before BB creams became a global beauty staple, Dr. Jart+ introduced them to the world, bridging the gap between skincare and makeup. The brand has continued to break new ground with dermatologist-developed formulas, from the deeply hydrating Ceramidin™ line to the Cicapair™ collection, which helps soothe and balance sensitive skin.
More than just effective skincare, Dr. Jart+ is about rethinking the way beauty looks and feels. With bold packaging, cutting-edge textures, and unexpected collaborations, the brand keeps skincare fresh while staying rooted in science. Whether it’s a cult-favorite mask or a barrier-boosting cream, Dr. Jart+ proves that serious skincare can still have a sense of play.
