AESTURA, Korea's #1 Dermatologist-Recommended Dermocosmetic Brand for Sensitive Skin Launches Exclusively at Sephora Canada
TORONTO, July 24, 2025 /CNW/ -- AESTURA, Korea's #1 dermatologist-recommended dermocosmetic brand for sensitive skin [1] breaks new ground in the Canadian skincare market with its exclusive launch at all Sephora Canada locations and on This strategic partnership with Sephora answers the growing demand for advanced, science-backed solutions in the dermatologist skincare category. AESTURA is more than just a skincare brand—it is the culmination of over 40 years of scientific research and dermatological expertise. AESTURA's specialized sensitive skin solutions are trusted by dermatologists at Korea's leading medical institutions. The brand has been ranked as the No. 1 dermocosmetic brand sold in skin clinics for 9 consecutive years [2], and has widespread distribution, reaching 100% of tertiary general hospitals in South Korea. [3] It has also been awarded the title of Best-Selling Dermocosmetic Facial Care Brand in South Korea. [4] Through AESTURA's Derma-Science Advisory Board in the US, the brand works closely and continuously with dermatologists to ensure that every formula is backed by the latest dermatological science. "We are thrilled to introduce Aestura to our Canadian beauty community," said Jane Nugent, SVP Merchandising, Sephora Canada. "With roots in advanced Korean dermatological science and a commitment to skin barrier health, Aestura delivers exactly what today's skincare-savvy client is looking for: efficacy, innovation, and gentle formulations. We are proud to be the brand's exclusive launch partner as we continue to bring globally loved Korean skincare brands to our shelves." At the heart of AESTURA's breakthrough skincare is the proprietary technology behind the bestselling ATOBARRIER 365 Cream, which features one million capsules packed with barrier-boosting ceramides in every tube. [5] These capsules stay on the skin for up to 18 hours [6], delivering maximum hydration while strengthening, repairing, and protecting the moisture barrier which can be weakened in sensitive skin. "Sensitive skin often struggles with compromised skin barrier, making it more susceptible to dryness and irritation," says Dr. Richard D. Granstein, an academic dermatologist and Chair of AESTURA's Derma-Science Advisory Board. Additionally, according to Dr. Y. Claire Chang, board-certified dermatologist at UnionDerm in New York City and clinical instructor at Mount Sinai Hospital, "For those with sensitive skin, ceramides are crucial. It's not just about any ceramides, though. Sensitive skin benefits most from specific ceramides that mimic those naturally found in the skin. AESTURA's innovative capsule technology, used in the ATOBARRIER 365 Cream, encapsulates these barrier-boosting ceramides, allowing for deep absorption to help rebuild and strengthen the skin's natural barrier. Results reported from a clinical trial of the ATOBARRIER 365 Cream demonstrated significantly enhanced skin hydration and improved barrier function." The ATOBARRIER 365 Cream has become a viral sensation in Korea, with one cream sold every 7 seconds [7] due to its proven ability to strengthen, protect and hydrate the skin. The cream provides immediate and up to 120 hours of lasting hydration after one application. [8] Formulated for daily use, the rest of the ATOBARRIER 365 collection provides a complete routine for sensitive skin. The collection includes the Foaming Cleanser, Hydro Essence, Hydro Cera-HA Serum, Face Lotion (a 2024 Allure Best of Beauty Award Winner), Hydro Soothing Cream, Cream Mist and Body Lotion. Each product in the collection is formulated to address specific skin concerns like dryness, irritation, and barrier damage while enhancing overall skin health. With the Mini Best Sellers Kit, exclusive to Sephora, consumers can discover ATOBARRIER 365 with trial sizes of the Cleanser, Serum, and Cream. "Bringing AESTURA to Canada is an exciting milestone for us," said Giovanni Dimas, Senior Brand Manager at AESTURA. "Our heritage is deeply rooted in Korean dermatological science, and for years our formulas have been trusted by skin experts and sensitive-skin users alike. Partnering with Sephora allows us to share our clinically backed, innovative skincare solutions with a new community that values both performance and care." Aestura was pleased to present at the Canadian Dermatology Association's 2025 Centennial Conference in Halifax, featuring a keynote by Dr. Sandy Skotnicki, a respected dermatologist and member of the Canadian Medical Association, the Canadian Dermatology Association, the American Academy of Dermatology, and the American Contact Dermatitis Society. Dr. Skotnicki discussed Aestura's cutting-edge technology and its pharmaceutical heritage, where dermatology meets beauty. She also expressed her enthusiasm for the availability of Korea's #1 dermatologist-recommended dermocosmetic brand for sensitive skin [1] at Sephora Canada. Canadian consumers can now easily access a skincare brand that is recommended by dermatologist in Korea. Starting August 2025, the ATOBARRIER 365 Collection will be available exclusively at Sephora Canada stores and on with prices ranging from $29.00 for the Mini ATOBARRIER 365 Cream, ATOBARRIER 365 Foaming Cleanser and ATOBARRIER 365 Cream Mist to $52 for the ATOBARRIER 365 Body Lotion.

Frankie Bridge swears by this Korean ‘sensitive skin lifesaver' balm that gives ‘glass skin'
If you're looking to get glowing, 'glass skin', Frankie Bridge has just shared her skincare 'lifesaver', and it hails from a viral Korean skincare brand 'Glass skin' is a trending buzzword that's been cropping up time and time again, with hundreds of brands jumping in on the trend. It describes skin that's so healthy-looking and hydrated, it almost looks translucent, glowy and glass-like. It's not just about piling on different products and hoping for the best, but instead building up your skin's moisture barrier so you get that glow-from-within effect. That's where AESTURA Atobarrier365 Cream with Ceramide, priced at £25.99, comes in. Loved by so many, including Frankie Bridge, who calls it a 'sensitive skin lifesaver', this K-Beauty balm is the secret to achieving 'glass skin'. If you're skin has been feeling dry, sensitive and in need of a little TLC, this barrier cream might be just what it needs. Trusted by millions in Korea and with one selling every 20 seconds, the moisturising formula promises up to 120 hours of hydration for the skin. It's infused with many skin-loving ingredients, but the secret is that it is packed full of ceramides. What exactly are ceramides? They're a crucial part of the skin's lipid barrier that helps to retain moisture, protect against external pollutants and keep any irritation out. That's what makes this AESTURA cream so perfect for sensitive skin. The cream is also free from any fragrance, has been allergy-tested and is gentle enough for the whole family to have also backed Frankie's praise up with one happy shopper writing: "The hydration is next-level - rich without being greasy, and it absorbs beautifully. What really impressed me, though, is how calming and soothing it is. My skin feels balanced, soft, and genuinely healthier after using it." While a second claimed it's: "The HOLY GRAIL for dry and sensitive skin". However, if you've got oilier skin this might be too much moisture, one shopper said: "After using it on my face, I felt like it was super moisturising, but for my skin type (combo leaning towards oily and sensitive), it felt like a bit too much. I would continue on with my day and still feel like there was a layer of moisturiser on my skin." If you're looking to achieve 'glass skin' without a using a product so thick, it may be worth trying out a milky toner. My personal favourites include BYOMA's Hydrating Milky Toner, Curel's Moisture Facial Milk and Beauty of Joseon's Glow Replenishing Rice Milk.
