Are RIMAN and Incellderm the Same Brand?

In simple terms: RIMAN is the parent company, and Incellderm is one of its skincare lines.

RIMAN is a Korean beauty company that develops, manages, and distributes multiple skincare brands.
Incellderm is one of the most well-known product lines under the RIMAN ecosystem, particularly recognized for its structured skincare routines and ingredient-focused formulations.

This relationship is similar to how a parent beauty group may operate several distinct product ranges under one corporate umbrella.


Why Do People Sometimes Confuse the Two?

Confusion usually happens for three main reasons:

  • Product-first exposure
    Many people encounter Incellderm products before learning about RIMAN as a company.
  • Routine-based discussions
    Incellderm is often discussed in the context of a full skincare routine, which can make it feel like a standalone brand.
  • Different naming usage by region
    In some regions, discussions focus more on “Incellderm skincare,” while in others, “RIMAN” is used as the broader brand reference.

Because of this, it’s common to see both names used interchangeably in online conversations, even though they serve different roles.


How the RIMAN Ecosystem Is Typically Structured

Within the RIMAN ecosystem:

  • RIMAN refers to the company and overall brand platform
  • Incellderm refers to a specific skincare line developed and distributed by RIMAN
  • Skincare education often focuses on routines, not individual products

This structure allows RIMAN to emphasize long-term skin maintenance, barrier care, and step-by-step usage rather than single-product marketing.


Is One “More Official” Than the Other?

Neither name is “more official” in isolation.

  • RIMAN represents the company and distribution system
  • Incellderm represents the product line used by consumers

When researching availability, usage instructions, or brand background, it’s helpful to understand which context is being discussed — company-level information or product-level routines.


What This Means for Consumers

For readers trying to understand Korean skincare brands:

  • Seeing both names together is normal
  • Learning the relationship helps avoid confusion
  • Product education and routine understanding matter more than naming alone

Future articles will explain how access, availability, and purchasing pathways can differ by country and region.


Summary

  • RIMAN is the parent skincare company
