Product info

Are your products authentic?

Yes Bomi!

We work directly with approved suppliers and carefully check the authenticity of every product we offer you.

That's why all the products sold on the Haru & Bom website are authentic South Korean cosmetics brands.

We also make sure every item has a certificate compliant with European regulations (CPNP, Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 on cosmetic products).

What's really in the products sold at Haru & Bom?

Every product page shows the full ingredient list, what each ingredient does and any potential allergens — so you can feel completely reassured.

I bought a product – can I combine it with other skincare?

Good question! Generally, yes: most Korean skincare is designed to work in synergy and fit easily into a routine. But there are a few exceptions, especially with powerful actives. Here are a few simple guidelines to help you:

Retinol (vitamin A):

✔️ Pairs well with moisturisers, ceramides, hyaluronic acid or niacinamide (to soothe and strengthen the skin).

❌ Avoid with pure vitamin C (risk of irritation), AHA/BHA/PHA and benzoyl peroxide.

Exfoliating acids (AHA, BHA, PHA):

✔️ Pair with soothing ingredients such as centella asiatica, aloe vera and panthenol.

❌ Best not combined directly with retinol or vitamin C.

Vitamin C (pure ascorbic acid):

✔️ Works well with vitamin E and ferulic acid (boosted antioxidant effect).

❌ Don't use at the same time as retinol, AHA/BHA or high-dose niacinamide (unless the formula is designed for it).

Niacinamide:

✔️ Very versatile, it gets along with almost everything (retinol, gentle acids, hyaluronic acid, peptides, ceramides).

❌ Only be careful when using it with a highly concentrated pure vitamin C: it can irritate some sensitive skin.

Hyaluronic acid:

✔️ It's friends with everyone: you can pair it with all your skincare without worry!

Which product suits my skin?

You can select your main concern in the menu at the top of the product pages – oily skin, hyperpigmentation… – to see targeted products.

Or contact us directly by email at: info@haruxbom.com or by private message on Instagram @haruxbom.

We'll be happy to guide you on your skincare journey – completely free!

How long does a product last? / When will I see results?

As a guide, a 50 ml jar lasts about 6–8 weeks depending on how often you use it. The first results usually appear after 2 to 3 weeks, depending on how consistent you are.
