About COSLIFE
History
COSLIFE was founded in 2002 as a distributor handling both imported luxury cosmetics and domestic Korean beauty brands. During its early years, the company managed internationally recognized luxury brands including Chanel, Dior, Bvlgari, and SK-II while simultaneously building partnerships with Korean cosmetic manufacturers.
Between 2002 and 2012, COSLIFE expanded its domestic distribution network before officially reorganizing as Coslife Co., Ltd. in 2012. Following this restructuring, the company focused increasingly on exporting Korean cosmetics to international markets, particularly throughout Asia.
In 2013, COSLIFE became a distributor for major Korean beauty brands such as The Face Shop, Nature Republic, and Missha in China. In 2018, the company established its Vietnam operations and began managing cosmetic retail stores in both Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, strengthening its presence in Southeast Asia. 1
