Corthe
The science, philosophy, and expertise behind the brand
Barrier-First Philosophy
Founded in 2009 under DMS Cosmetic Corporation, Corthe is built on the “Outside-In” theory of corneotherapy. This approach prioritizes the stratum corneum—the skin’s outermost layer—as the foundation of healthy skin.
When the barrier is compromised, imbalance and skin concerns follow. Corthe’s formulations focus on repairing, strengthening, and rebalancing the barrier to restore resilience rather than masking symptoms.
Professional, Customizable Care
Corthe’s products are designed exclusively for professional use and structured for customization. Instead of one-size-fits-all solutions, the brand supports bespoke skin therapy—allowing estheticians to tailor treatments based on individual skin conditions.
This flexible, systematic approach combines advanced dermatological science with practical treatment control, making Corthe especially effective for sensitive and problem-prone skin.
Proven Science + Global Credibility
Since its origins in Korea, Corthe has grown into a globally recognized professional brand. The company established its research institute in 2011 and holds ISO9001 and ISO14001 certifications, reflecting its commitment to quality, safety, and innovation.
Corthe has received multiple industry honors and actively contributes to professional education through its involvement with the International Association for Applied Corneotherapy (I.A.C.).
