Blemishes, dark spots, and oily skin are all pretty normal things that can happen to our skin. But, you wouldn’t know it from the images we see on social media and ads featuring poreless, clear skin. Too often we see images that don’t reflect normal, real skin that breaks out and is textured. These unrealistic standards can be damaging for skin and for mental health. Having larger pores, blemishes, and blackheads shouldn’t determine how we feel about ourselves.

At Hanhoo, we have reimagined the way we approach our platform to be more inclusive of all the different and unique skin tones and types. We strive to be a reflection of you and celebrate all skin types, including skin with spots, marks, and blemishes.  

Hanhoo is Here For You 

Our goal is to provide skincare products that focus on maintaining healthy, hydrated skin. We don’t believe that you have to exfoliate your pores out of existence or chemically treat your skin to get it to be “perfect.” To us, healthy skin is the goal, not skin without imperfections.

Healthy skin also sometimes means getting the annoying blemish that can be uncomfortable and a little painful at times. And on top of that with all the dirt and pollution that affects our skin on a daily basis, we need to make sure that we are taking good care of our skin. For that we are here to help you feel more comfortable in your skin and help you on your journey to healthy skin. 

Breaking Down Beauty Standards 

We not only want to help you achieve healthy skin but also a healthy mindset surrounding the way you think about your skin. The heavily edited and photoshopped images of the “ideal” skin on social media can be damaging to mental health. Constantly seeing images of “perfect” skin can negatively affect self esteem especially since it makes blemishes and texture seem not normal. It is important to break down the beauty standards created by these unrealistic images. We want to play our part in helping highlight and normalize skin that has pores, textures, and blemishes to show what real skin looks like.

We’re not here to promise you that we can help you get rid of pores and texture but rather help you embrace your natural skin while helping you keep it healthy and balanced. 

Earth-Friendly 

Since we are here for you, we can’t forget about being here for the earth too. We understand the importance of being earth-friendly and in efforts to be more sustainable, we have started by reducing plastic use on our blemish patches. We will continue to find ways to improve our sustainability efforts in the future that's better for the earth and better for you.
