CAYCLLY CO., LTD.
«Clean beauty built on a fermented berry and a delivery patent»
Korean clean-beauty brand with two proprietary complexes, a registered delivery patent and third-party clinical results: twelve products across hair, face and body, with Italian V-Label certification on the full skincare line
CAYCLLY CO., LTD. is a Seoul company founded in 2023 and based in Gangnam-gu. It describes its own field as clean beauty and slow aging: daily-use cosmetics built on nature-derived ingredients, with the claims tied to laboratory and clinical work rather than to a story. Formulation is done by an in-house team, and production runs at a GMP-certified partner facility.
The brand rests on two proprietary developments. The first is Redbarrier™, a complex the company puts into every product of its skincare line. The second is Pressome™, a delivery technology protected by a registered Korean patent, which the company uses to carry actives deeper into the skin. Both are described below in the company's own terms.
The range is unusually broad for a company of this age: twelve products in four lines. Hair and scalp care is three products, the skincare routine is five, specialty care is an eye cream and a sun cream, and body care is two. The lines are built for different buyers and are not variations of one another.
The certification approach is worth a separate note. For its skincare line the company did not take the domestic vegan route but obtained Italian V-Label certification, naming each product individually. Hair and body care carry Korean vegan certification instead. These are different certifying bodies with different international weight, and this profile names them separately rather than merging them into one badge. All figures, test results and registrations below are the company's data.

Hair care
The line the company put forward first for international markets, and the one built on its own fermentation work. The Calming Beer Yeast Shampoo, 500 ml, is registered with the Korean MFDS as a functional anti-hair-loss cosmetic and carries Korean vegan certification. The Seed Oil Hair Essence, 200 ml, is a leave-in treatment on nine seed oils with an allergen-free fragrance. The Beer Yeast Collagen Treatment, 500 ml, is a conditioning mask at pH 5.5. The company states its claims for the treatment carefully, without figures, and it is the one product in the line that does not carry a vegan mark.
Redbarrier skincare
Five products covering a full routine: an oat cleansing foam with four exfoliating acids and colloidal oat, a toner, an emulsion, an ampoule serum on four peptides and the cream on which the clinical work was done. Four of the five are registered in Korea as dual-functional cosmetics for brightening and wrinkle care. All five carry Italian V-Label certification with individual reference numbers.
Specialty care
Two products for separate tasks. It has completed an eye-area irritation test. The Glutathione Glow Sun Cream is SPF 50+ PA++++, registered as a triple-functional cosmetic, combines organic and inorganic filters and carries a reef-safe mark: no oxybenzone or octinoxate.
Body care
A shower gel and an emulsion on Jeju hinoki cypress water at a stated 50 000 ppm, with ceramide and panthenol. Both are rated EWG green grade by the company and carry Korean vegan certification. The emulsion adds shea butter and an allergen-free grapefruit fragrance.

Redbarrier™ complex
The company's own complex, present in every product of the skincare line. It is built in two halves: the red half is Nobleberry™ with astaxanthin, the barrier half is panthenol with ceramide. Nobleberry™ is double-fermented, with black yeast and lactobacillus; the company states it contains fifteen times more saponins than ginseng and that it inhibits collagen degradation. For astaxanthin the company states antioxidant activity six thousand times that of vitamin C. Ceramide, in the company's description, forms lamellar lipid layers that mimic the skin's own structure.
Pressome™ delivery, patent 10-2164218
A cationic liposome registered as a Korean patent. The idea is electrostatic: the carrier holds a positive charge and the stratum corneum a negative one, so the carrier adheres to the surface more strongly and takes the actives deeper. In the company's own fluorescent penetration assay the cationic liposome showed the highest absorption, ahead of neutral and anionic liposomes and far ahead of a plain aqueous solution. The company notes that results vary by active ingredient and skin condition.
Clinical results for Redbarrier Cream
Carried out by an independent third party, the Tru Skin Clinical Trials Center in Seoul, in March 2024. The company reports a 296.5% rise in surface hydration after a single application and a 362.5% rise at the tenth skin layer, a 102% improvement in transepidermal water loss on physically damaged skin and a 95% improvement in the damaged barrier measure. In the post-trial questionnaire all nine quality and efficacy metrics were rated at maximum satisfaction. The number of participants and the protocol are not stated in the materials we hold; they are requested from the company at the deal stage.
Brewer's yeast for the scalp
The shampoo is built on brewer's yeast extract at a stated 500 ppm. The company describes it as carrying eighteen amino acids and forty-nine times the protein of bananas, absorbed into the hair shaft and root. Alongside it the formula carries lactobacillus ferment lysate for the scalp microbiome and sixteen botanicals the company rates EWG green grade, with no red or orange grade ingredients. The combination is the subject of a Korean patent application, 10-2024-0027315, filed under the name Calming Beer™ Scalp. This is an application, not a granted patent.
Vegan certification, named by body
The skincare line holds Italian V-Label certification, issued by V-Label Italia and approved by Associazione Vegetariana Italiana, with seven products listed individually under reference numbers 1771 to 1777/2024 C-KR and validity to 20 March 2027. Hair and body care carry Korean vegan certification instead, KIVAC for the shampoo. The company itself describes domestic certification as strong locally and weaker internationally, which is why the two are named separately here rather than shown as one vegan badge.
Formulation standards
The company states that its products contain no parabens, sulfates, petroleum derivatives, synthetic dyes or triethanolamine, and that fragrances in the hair and body lines are certified allergen-free. Skincare products are dermatologically tested for irritation, and the company states that its ingredient selection follows pregnancy-conscious standards. Packaging uses recyclable glass and PCR containers with FSC-certified paper printed in soy ink.
