Climate Inspired Korean Skincare
AXIS-Y is a Korean skincare brand based in Seoul, built on a simple idea: skin is constantly changing with climate, environment, stress and daily routines, so skincare should respond to that reality. It calls itself a Climate Inspired Korean Skincare brand, and calls the conditions that shape your skin your Skin Climate, rather than fitting people into fixed skin types.
Its philosophy comes to life in the 6+1+1 line: each formula combines 6 base ingredients to nourish and support overall skin health, 1 core ingredient to target a specific concern, and 1 technology ingredient to enhance performance and delivery. It also has ay&me, a community-created line developed with input from over 1,000 creators across 68 countries.
All its products are 100% vegan and cruelty-free and developed with sensitive skin in mind: free from alcohol, parabens, artificial colors and artificial fragrances, with sensitive skin suitability testing before release. It makes cleansers, toners, ampoules and serums, moisturizers and sunscreens, and groups its routines into three skin climates: Thirsty Skin Society for dehydrated skin, Dewy Mode for oily yet dehydrated skin, and Handle With Care for sensitive, reactive skin.
Known for Climate-inspired vegan Korean skincare built on the 6+1+1 system, best known for its Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum with 5% niacinamide.
