Climate-inspired Korean skincare
28 products in the database · compositions verified against the manufacturer
AXIS-Y is a Korean skincare brand founded in 2019 in Seoul, under the parent company Asia Master Trade Co., Ltd. It describes its approach as climate-inspired: the idea that skin reacts to humidity, temperature and city conditions, so formulas should account for the environment people actually live in. Every product is vegan and cruelty-free, and manufacturing stays entirely in Korea.
The brand is known for its 6+1+1 formula: six botanical extracts as a base, one active ingredient for a specific concern, and one technology ingredient. Its most recognized product, the Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum, is built around niacinamide, rice bran extract, squalane and papaya, and has stayed near the top of K-beauty rankings for several years. Alongside it sit a quinoa-based cleansing range and treatments featuring centella and heartleaf (houttuynia).
This page collects the AXIS-Y product catalog with each formula broken down. For every item you can see the full INCI list, and each ingredient carries an evidence rating through a traffic-light system and A–F tiers, plus pregnancy safety notes. Evigrade is an independent ingredient reference, not a shop and not a source of medical advice: it lets you check what a product is made of and how the evidence rates its components.

AXIS-Y is a Korean brand founded in 2019; all products are vegan, cruelty-free and made in Korea. Whether a given product suits you depends on its formula and your skin type. The catalog on this page shows each product's INCI list and evidence-based ingredient ratings so you can judge for yourself.
AXIS-Y is sold through K-beauty stores and online retailers in many countries, including MiiN Cosmetics and other Korean-skincare shops. Evigrade does not sell cosmetics or compare prices; it breaks down product ingredients.
The serum's main ingredients are niacinamide, rice bran extract, squalane and papaya extract, plus glycerin and sodium hyaluronate for hydration. The full INCI list and a rating of each ingredient are in the product entry.
There is no blanket answer: it depends on the specific product and personal tolerance. The brand uses botanical extracts and fragrance, which can irritate some people. You can check any formula for potential triggers in the INCI breakdown on this page.
