Parket Inc General Manager Janet Kim said: “Our company name is Parket and our brand name is Mixsoon. We are a Korean skincare brand. Mixsoon is a combination of two words: ‘Mix’ and ‘soon’. ‘Soon’ means ‘purity’, so ‘Mixsoon’ means a ‘blend of purity’.” According to Kim, Parket has some core values and these centre around “minimalism, clean beauty and ingredient oriented”. Kim explained: “When we say ‘minimalism’, it means minimal in terms of formula, so if you see our core serum line, they only have one core ingredient inside. This means each natural ingredient has a high concentration. It’s safe, mild and even children can use them.” Kim added: “Our products are now being sold in the US and Europe and we are selling in more than 50 countries.” Basement 2/2-L33 Mixsoon shows purity sells Thursday 16 May 2024 14 T F W A D A I L Y
