Skincare brand ISLAND Beauty raises Rs 2.58 Cr from AJ VC to expand skincare range
Skincare brand ISLAND Beauty, which combines Korean ingredients with formulations developed for Indian skin requirements, has raised Rs 2.58 crore in funding from AJ VC.
The company said in a press release that the capital will be allocated towards product development, building brand awareness and acquiring customers.
Founded in 2023 by Shirley Setia, Jinsoon Lee, Mayank Jain and Sakshi Jain, ISLAND Beauty specialises in barrier-focused skincare products intended for everyday use.
The brand sources its ingredients from South Korea while developing its formulations in India, taking into account local climatic conditions and consumers’ skincare requirements.
ISLAND Beauty has created its proprietary Core Barrier Matrix, comprising CBM-A Repair and CBM-B Defence. This formulation system is designed to support skin barrier repair and provide daily protection.
Its product range currently covers cleansers, toners, serums, moisturisers and lip care. Among its offerings is the Dew Drop Barrier Repair Glow Serum, formulated with 50% Korean rice water and 5% niacinamide. The brand also provides a seven-day return policy, subject to its terms and conditions.
Over the next three years, ISLAND Beauty aims to broaden its product range and strengthen its market presence while raising consumer awareness about barrier-focused skincare.
