Brand

The Korean brand ROVECTIN was founded by Mr. Lee, who believes that healthy and beautiful skin enhances quality of life, as it is intimately connected to personal self-confidence. Witnessing his sister's struggles with cancer, which left her skin irritated and dehydrated due to chemotherapy side effects, he established ROVECTIN. The brand's philosophy is encapsulated in its name, derived from the Latin "reverti," meaning "to return," signifying a return to the skin's original vitality. ROVECTIN is dedicated to creating products with healing and restorative properties specifically for the skin barrier. Through its proprietary Repair Complex formula, ROVECTIN has earned its reputation as the most trusted skincare brand among patients, hospitals, and dermatologists in South Korea. The "Skin Essentials" line prominently features this unique formulation in products like the water cleanser “Skin Essentials Conditioning Cleanser,” the toner “Skin Essentials Activating Treatment Lotion,” and the facial oil “Skin Essentials Barrier Repair Face Oil,” all proudly included in the Koral Secrets collection.

The "magic" essential oil of Tea Tree offers antibacterial properties, while the natural BHA (salicylic acid) penetrates deeply into the pores to thoroughly cleanse them of excess oil and sebum. This cleanser is suitable for morning use and can also serve as a second cleanser in the evening, following an oil-based cleanser.
