The Cosmetic Technology Behind RIMAN and INCELLDERM

Korean cosmetics have transformed the way we understand skin care. In contrast to quick routines focused on a single product, K-Beauty proposes observing the skin, combining different textures, and applying each formula in a specific order.

RIMAN and INCELLDERM are part of this philosophy, but their approach is not limited to using many steps. The brand combines botanical ingredients, cosmetic formulation systems, and application rituals designed to work together.

What technology do we find behind their products? What are nanoliposomes? Why are different layers used? And what should we consider before attributing results to a formula?

Cosmetic technology, not medical treatment

When we talk about technology applied to skincare, we are not necessarily referring to electronic devices.

Cosmetic innovation can be found in:

• The selection and combination of ingredients.

• The extraction and stabilization of botanical compounds.

• The size and structure of certain delivery systems.

• The texture of the formula.

• The preservation of the product.

• The compatibility between different steps.

• The way the product is distributed on the skin.

These elements can influence the stability, application experience, and cosmetic availability of the ingredients.

However, an advanced formula does not turn a cosmetic into a medicine. Cosmetic products are primarily intended to cleanse, perfume, protect, keep in good condition, or modify the external appearance of the skin.

The skin barrier as a starting point

The outermost layer of the skin acts as a protective barrier.

It helps limit water loss and hinders the entry of external agents. Its condition can influence sensations such as dryness, tightness, flaking, or discomfort.

That's why many Korean routines don't aim to apply a single intensive product, but rather to combine several functions:

1. Removing makeup, sunscreen, and residues.

2. Cleansing without leaving an excessively harsh feeling.

3. Providing water and humectant substances.

4. Applying more concentrated formulas.

5. Incorporating lipids and conditioning components.

6. Finishing with sun protection during the day.

The routine doesn't always need to have many steps. It should be adapted to the skin type, individual tolerance, and the products used.

What are nanoliposomes?

One of the technological terms associated with INCELLDERM's proposal is nanoliposome technology.

A liposome is a small structure formed by lipid components organized around an aqueous space. Due to this configuration, it can be used in cosmetics to incorporate certain ingredients within a formula.

When these structures have very small dimensions, the term nanoliposome is used.

In a cosmetic formulation, these systems can pursue objectives such as:

• Keeping certain ingredients dispersed.

• Protecting sensitive components from degradation.

• Improving the stability of the formula.

• Promoting uniform distribution.

• Modifying the release and surface availability of certain compounds.

• Achieving a lighter or more pleasant texture.

INCELLDERM includes nanoliposome technology among the technological elements of its cosmetic proposal. Consult the brand's presentation and its technologies.

"Nano" doesn't mean it reaches every part of the body

The term nano can lead to exaggerated interpretations.

The fact that a formula uses nanoliposomes does not prove that its ingredients reach deep layers, enter cells, or produce medical effects. The actual behavior depends on numerous factors:

• Size and composition of the system.

• Ingredient transported.

• Concentration used.

• Product stability.

• State of the skin barrier.

• Contact time.

• Method used to evaluate the formula.

Therefore, we should not assume that all products with nanoliposomes work in the same way or that they can treat dermatological diseases.

At RaízPropia, we use the term to explain the formulation system declared by the brand, not as a guarantee of cellular penetration or clinical results.

Giant BYoungPool: the characteristic botanical complex

Another concept related to INCELLDERM is Giant BYoungPool, presented as a proprietary botanical extract linked to Centella asiatica.

Centella asiatica is a plant widely used in Korean cosmetics. Its extracts can appear in products intended to offer a soothing sensation, condition the skin, and accompany formulas aimed at skin comfort.

However, simply mentioning a plant is not enough to know the final behavior of the product.

Other important factors include:

• The part of the plant used.

• The extraction method.

• The concentration.

• The combination with other ingredients.

• The stability of the formula.

• The sensitivity of each skin.

The commercial information available about INCELLDERM presents Giant BYoungPool as one of its differentiating botanical complexes. More information about INCELLDERM's ingredients and approach.

Jeju Volcanic Energy Water

Jeju Island holds an important place in South Korean cosmetic culture. Its volcanic origin and natural identity are used as inspiration in various formulations and brand narratives.

INCELLDERM refers to Jeju volcanic water within its proposal.

In a cosmetic formula, water can act as:

• The base of the product.

• A medium for dissolving water-soluble ingredients.

• Part of the texture.

• A vehicle for humectants and extracts.

• A sensory element during application.

The origin of the water can be part of a formula's identity, but it does not automatically attribute therapeutic properties to it. The result depends on the complete product, not just its base ingredient.

Botanicals, minerals, and antioxidants

The brand also communicates the use of plant extracts, essential oils, minerals, and antioxidant components within its catalog.

These groups are very broad.

Botanical extracts

They can provide different compounds and be used to condition the skin or complement the sensory experience.

Humectants

Ingredients such as glycerin or hyaluronic acid help attract and retain water on the skin's surface.

Emollients

They contribute to softening the skin and improving its flexibility.

Ceramides and lipids

They can accompany formulations designed to reinforce the sensation of comfort and reduce superficial moisture loss.

Peptides

These are short chains of amino acids used in various cosmetic formulas. Their characteristics depend on the specific peptide, its concentration, and the stability of the product.

Antioxidants

They help protect the formula itself or are incorporated to support care against superficial oxidative stress. Their presence does not turn the cosmetic into a medical treatment.

The complete list of ingredients is more informative than a selection of highlighted components. We always recommend checking the INCI of each product.

Why are glycols used?

Glycols appear frequently in cosmetics, even though their name may sound overly chemical.

They are commonly used as:

• Humectants.

• Solvents.

• Texture enhancers.

• Components that help distribute other ingredients.

• Support for formula stability and preservation.

Just because an ingredient has a chemical name does not mean it is harmful. Its safety must be assessed by considering the specific substance, concentration, and authorized use.

INCELLDERM explains that it uses cosmetic-grade glycols for functions related to hydration, cosmetic absorption, texture, and stability. Consult their explanation of glycols.

The importance of textures

Cosmetic technology is also perceived in texture.

A routine can combine:

• Cleansing oils.

• Powder cleansers.

• Biphasic mists.

• Light gels.

• Serums.

• Creams.

• Balms.

• Sunscreens.

Each format corresponds to a different function and experience.

For example, an oil can help remove oil-soluble substances, while a mist allows for the distribution of light layers of product. A cream incorporates a different proportion of water, emulsifiers, and lipid components to offer a more enveloping sensation.

There is no universally superior texture. The choice depends on the cosmetic objective, climate, skin type, and personal preference.

The Boo-Se-Boo method and layered application

RIMAN uses the concept Boo-Se-Boo to describe a way of applying certain products in several layers.

The idea is to distribute a controlled amount, gently press with the hands, and repeat the process following the indicated routine.

Applying thin layers can help to:

• Better control the amount.

• Distribute the product evenly.

• Avoid excessive accumulation all at once.

• Observe how the skin responds.

• Turn the application into a more relaxed ritual.

This does not mean that doubling or tripling any product is always beneficial. Some active ingredients can cause irritation if applied in excess.

The method should only be used with products for which the brand recommends it and by respecting the corresponding instructions.

Double cleansing

Many Korean routines begin with two phases:

First phase: oil cleansing

Aims to remove makeup, sunscreen, sebum, and residues compatible with an oil base.

Second phase: water cleansing

Removes superficial residues using a cleanser compatible with the skin type.

Double cleansing can be useful when using long-lasting makeup or sunscreen. However, not everyone needs it twice a day.

Excessive cleansing can promote dryness, irritation, or a feeling of tightness. The skin should be clean, but not necessarily rough or completely stripped of lipids.

In what order should products be applied?

As a general guideline, routines usually progress from lighter to denser textures:

1. Cleansing oil.

2. Water cleanser.

3. Mist, toner, or booster.

4. Serum.

5. Gel or emulsion.

6. Cream.

7. Localized balm.

8. Sunscreen during the day.

The order may vary depending on the formula. The manufacturer's instructions should take precedence.

It is also advisable to introduce products gradually. Starting an entire new routine on the same day makes it difficult to identify which product works well or which is causing a reaction.

Sunscreen: the essential step during the day

A sophisticated routine loses coherence if it does not include photoprotection.

Sunscreen helps reduce the skin's exposure to ultraviolet radiation. It should be applied in sufficient quantity and reapplied when appropriate, especially after sweating, swimming, or towel drying.

A moisturizer, serum, or antioxidant should not be used as a substitute for sunscreen.

Protection can also be complemented with shade, clothing, appropriate eyewear, and avoiding prolonged exposure during peak radiation hours.

How to choose a RIMAN routine?

It is not necessary to use the entire catalog.

Before choosing, it is advisable to consider:

• Skin type and current condition.

• Known sensitivities or allergies.

• Presence of acne, rosacea, dermatitis, or other alterations.

• Products already being used.

• Climate and sun exposure.

• Preference for light or enveloping textures.

• Time available to maintain the routine.

• Budget.

A simple and consistent routine is usually more useful than an extensive routine used irregularly.

Tolerance test and gradual introduction

Even botanical ingredients can cause reactions.

Before applying a new product extensively, a tolerance test can be performed following the manufacturer's instructions.

We recommend:

1. Introducing one product at a time.

2. Starting with a moderate frequency.

3. Avoiding combining too many new active ingredients.

4. Observing the skin for several days.

5. Discontinuing use if an intense reaction appears.

If there is a diagnosed skin condition or a persistent reaction, a healthcare professional should be consulted.

Advanced cosmetics without impossible promises

RIMAN and INCELLDERM bring together several recognizable elements of K-Beauty:

• Multi-step routines.

• Layered application.

• Botanical ingredients.

• Humectants and conditioning components.

• Different textures.

• Cosmetic systems like nanoliposomes.

• Attention to experience and ritual.

These elements can make a routine attractive, pleasant, and coherent.

However, no single technological concept alone guarantees identical results for all people. Nor does it allow for the claim that a cosmetic can cure diseases, permanently modify skin structure, or replace dermatological treatments.

Innovation at the service of ritual

RIMAN's cosmetic technology is not found solely in an ingredient or packaging.

It is present in the combination of formulation, texture, application order, and user experience.

This integration is what turns the routine into more than just a succession of products.

At RaízPropia, we value innovation that can be clearly explained: understanding what each step contributes, why it holds a position within the routine, and how to adapt it to the real needs of the skin.

Because caring for your skin is not about using more.

It's about choosing better, observing, and maintaining a routine that we can truly make our own.
