 This post provides an easy and engaging overview of COSMOBEAUTY SEOUL 2025, Asia’s leading beauty trade show and a global launchpad for K-Beauty innovation, which KNSUNCLES Inc. also attended. It highlights the record-breaking scale, new trends, and unique opportunities offered to brands, buyers, and beauty professionals from around the world.





Record-Breaking Scale and Global Participation

 COSMO BEAUTY SEOUL 2025 was held from May 28 to 30 at COEX in Seoul, marking the 39th edition of Korea’s longest-running and most influential beauty expo. This year’s event was the largest ever, with 421 companies from 10 countries and 605 booths, reaffirming Korea’s position as a $10 billion cosmetics export powerhouse and a global B2B beauty hub. All booth spaces were sold out months in advance, demonstrating the industry’s high level of interest and demand.

 Showcasing Cutting-Edge K-Beauty Innovations

The exhibition showcased the cutting-edge technology and innovation of K-Beauty. From advanced skincare ingredients like PDRN and glutathione to microneedle (spicule) products and high-performance herbal extracts such as cica and rice, a wide range of new products were unveiled. Home beauty devices—plasma, LED, EMS, and microcurrent gadgets—demonstrated Korea’s leadership in beauty tech, while transformative textures, fun-to-use formats, and innovative patches and stickers for UV protection, hydration, and acne care were major crowd-pleasers.

A Hub for International Exchange and Networking

 International exchange was also vibrant. Pavilions from Poland, Indonesia, China, Finland, Italy, Turkiye, and Japan created a global business and partnership platform. The Hosted Buyer program was upgraded to “walking meetings,” allowing exhibitors and buyers to network more flexibly. The ONE ASIA COSMETICS & BEAUTY FORUM provided valuable insights into market trends, regulations, and Asia-Pacific expansion strategies.

KNSUNCLES Inc.’s Active Participation
