How did Bephor get its start?
After our CEO, June Lim earned his degree in Beauty Health Management in Korea, Mr. Lim started his career in 2010 at a cosmetics company run by African Americans in Philadelphia. During the process of planning and developing cosmetics in the world's largest market and communicating with local customers, he received deep insight into racial diversity. The problem of not being able to satisfy customers' needs through existing cosmetics that target the majority was recognized.
The insight gained from studying the characteristics of skin, hair, and scalp of different races was enough to convince him that “We need customized cosmetics that consider racial characteristics.” After returning to Korea, June Lim used his experiences to establish Bephor, a customer-tailored cosmetics brand.
What inspired Bephor’s name?
“Metaphor” refers to replacing a concept with another to provide new meaning and interpretation, which is a powerful means of representing the diversity of language. Similarly, beauty is not an absolute concept. Because everyone is uniquely different, everyone is uniquely beautiful. This philosophy is included in our brand name Bephor, which combines Beauty and Metaphor.
We will find hidden meanings behind surface data on beauty. In addition, we identify and comprehend the hidden needs and inconveniences of relatively shadowed classes to provide new perspectives, analysis, and solutions. This becomes our way of respecting and embracing the diversity of different kinds of beauty.
