We don't own a factory. We own the outcome.
Living Lively Inc. has developed, certified and exported cosmetics from Seoul since 2013. We are the office in Korea you don't have: the people who choose the factory, negotiate the price, stand on the line and answer the phone.
Independent by design.
A manufacturer will always recommend its own line. A marketplace will always recommend whoever paid to be listed. Because we are independent, we can recommend the right CGMP manufacturer and the right component supplier for each product, and renegotiate when it isn't working.
The right factory, every time
Different manufacturers excel at different things: emulsions, sun care, mild surfactants, organic audits, color. We match the product to the plant, not the plant to the product.
Repeat-buyer pricing
We place many projects across the same suppliers, so you benefit from relationships and volume that a single brand can't build on its own.
Skin in the game
We sign for the project. We earn on production, so our income depends on your product landing on time, to spec, and reordering.
Localization is a discipline, not a translation
We've worked across North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia and know how texture, scent, claims and compliance expectations differ by market.
We have run the whole chain ourselves, so we know where it breaks.
Our team has taken products through COSMOS Organic and Vegan Society certification, Dermatest and clinical testing, EU, UK and Japan notification, and Amazon and Qoo10 logistics. That experience is what you are hiring.
Our operating principles.
Say the real number
MOQs, lead times and costs are given as realistic ranges from day one, not optimistic ones that drift later.
Show, don't tell
Photo and video from the factory floor, test reports as they arrive, and a weekly written status you can forward to your board.
Plan compliance first
The product we formulate is the product that registers. We never find out at the end that an ingredient isn't allowed in your market.
Protect your work
NDA before we see your brief. Written ownership terms for custom formulas. We never resell your development to another brand.
Your language, your hours
Calls scheduled in your time zone, updates written in your language, and a manager who reads the nuance in both directions.
Stay after shipping
Reorders, complaints, new SKUs and regulatory updates. The relationship starts when the first order lands, not ends.
Who you'll be working with.
