Why we stock Skinfood
Skinfood is the oldest food-based skincare brand in Korea, founded in 1957, and it is the least serious thing we sell in the best sense.
The Black Sugar scrub is the one people know — a physical exfoliant in a category that has largely moved to acids, and still genuinely enjoyable for someone who wants to feel something happen. We will tell you when an acid would suit your skin better, because for reactive or breakout-prone skin it usually would.
It is on the shelf because not every purchase has to be strategic. A shop that only sells clinical solutions to problems misses the part of this that people actually enjoy.
Frequently asked questions
- What is Skinfood and what's its bestseller?
- Skinfood is one of Korea's original beauty brands, built on food-derived ingredients since 1957. Its global icon is the Black Sugar Mask Wash Off — a gentle sugar-crystal exfoliating mask that melts as it polishes, leaving skin smooth without harsh scrubbing.
- How often should I use the Black Sugar Mask?
- Once or twice a week on damp skin: massage gently, leave ten to fifteen minutes, then rinse. The sugar crystals dissolve as they work, making it gentler than typical physical scrubs — though very reactive or broken-out skin should choose an enzyme or acid exfoliant instead.
- Why buy Skinfood at Haku?
- Authentic stock through official distribution, shipped from Dublin in one to three working days — plus honest advice from a skin clinic about whether physical exfoliation suits your skin at all, which a marketplace listing will never tell you.
