How to Launch Korean Skincare Products Fast with Low MOQ | Korean Cosmetics OEM/ODM
Launching your own K-Beauty brand no longer requires massive capital or large order volumes. Thanks to Korea’s flexible OEM/ODM manufacturing system, even first-time founders and small businesses can start their skincare line quickly and affordably.
Whether you’re building a direct-to-consumer brand or launching your own skincare product for retail, here’s how to make it happen—fast and with low MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity).
1. Choose Pre-Developed, Lab-Approved Formulas
-
To save time and budget, you can select from a range of pre-developed (ODM) formulas that have already passed safety and stability tests. These include trending Korean skincare products such as:
-
CICA Gel Cream
-
PDRN Serum
-
Hyaluronic Acid Pads
-
Lip Oil, Cooling Sunstick, and Sheet Masks
These formulas are ready to go—you only need to apply your branding and packaging.
This option allows you to:
-
Launch faster
-
Avoid the R&D costs of custom formulation
-
Work with minimums starting from 3,000 units
-
2. Use Standard Containers for Faster Turnaround
One of the best ways to speed up production is to use existing packaging molds such as:
-
Dropper bottles (30ml)
-
Pad jars
-
Tubes or airless pumps
-
Sheet mask pouches
By choosing from these ready-made containers, you eliminate delays tied to custom mold creation and can go to market in as little as 45 days.
3. Get Professional Branding Support
-
Don’t have a designer on your team? No problem.
We offer support through experienced freelance packaging designers who can quickly produce:
-
Labels and box artwork
-
Printing-ready .ai files
-
Mockups for your approval
This service ensures your brand looks professional and aligned with current market trends—without holding up the timeline.

⚠️ Important Advice for First-Time Brand Owners
-
Don’t obsess over creating the “perfect” sample.
Remember: lab samples are made in small quantities and may feel slightly different than the final mass-produced product. Texture, absorption speed, and even scent can vary slightly when scaled.It’s completely normal—and often easier—to fine-tune during real production.
Many first-time founders fall into the trap of endlessly adjusting samples based on personal preferences, leading to delays and lost momentum.
👉 Focus on speed, brand readiness, and market testing. Your first batch is your launchpad—not your final destination. You can always revise formulas or packaging after gathering feedback from real customers.
