Hey there— we’re Cardon.
And you’re finally done searching for the one brand that will actually solve your skin and hair concerns. It’s nice to meet you.
Fewer Products, More Results
Our lineup is intentionally streamlined, as our multifunctional products each pack a punch. Whether you’re looking to treat dark circles, soothe shaving irritation, prevent hair loss, or all of the above—our personal care solutions are as good at multitasking as your boss thinks you are.
Cardon’s products are easy to use, made of non-toxic, premium ingredients, and are backed by Korean innovation and science.
It Began By Asking Men About Protection
SPF protection, that is. While in school, our founders ran a focus group out of their apartment with a handful of their male classmates. The topic: skincare. When given the chance (and some pizza and beer), the guys were quick to open up about the topic. Narae and Jacqueline were inspired by what they heard and hit the ground running.
Founder Fact: Narae’s decade of experience working in the Korean skincare world paired with Jacqueline’s expertise in the e-commerce startup space perfectly positioned the pair to create this performance-driven brand that the market was missing.
First up: Sun Protection
Arguably the most important step in anyone’s skincare routine, from outdoor enthusiasts to urban-dwellers alike.
Our award-winning, lightweight Daily SPF + Moisturizer has been followed by a full line of quality products that all men can feel confident using.
