BioCos Co., Ltd.'s premium skincare brand 'Larucell' received the Grand Gold Quality Award in the cosmetics category at the '2023 Monde Selection.'
Monde Selection, headquartered in Brussels, Belgium since 1961, is one of the world's top three quality evaluation organizations. Over 80 judges evaluate products across six categories?alcoholic beverages, food, diet, health, cosmetics, and household goods?over a period of 6 to 7 months.
In particular, through independent quality testing and scientific evaluation by accredited research institutions, outstanding products among the entries are selected each year and awarded certification and prizes. It is well known for its strict and fair evaluation by a jury composed of university lecturers, chemical engineers, and cosmetics experts, assessing over 3,000 products from more than 90 countries worldwide.
In Korea, companies such as Amorepacific, Nature Republic, and It's Skin have received awards.
Larucell entered the competition for the first time with the 'Mystic Light Cica Refreshing Hydrogel Mask Pack' and received the Grand Gold Quality Award, given to products scoring above 90 points.
The Mystic Light Cica Refreshing Hydrogel Mask Pack, which won the award, is a natural polysaccharide hydrogel mask pack that incorporates E.BEAM technology?used for sterilizing medical devices?without using harmful cross-linking agents or preservatives, allowing active ingredients to be contained within mesh pockets.
Yooji Kang, CEO of BioCos Co., Ltd., said, "We feel a heavy responsibility receiving such a prestigious award on our first entry, an award even major global cosmetics companies find difficult to obtain," and added, "We will do our best to actively promote our technology and brand so that Larucell becomes a representative brand of K-beauty."
