Known for the iconic Snail Bee High Content Essence, the first product in the brand’s catalog, Benton was started in 2007 by Korean doctor Jang Won and his brother, Chae Won Lee.
Jang Won developed the snail and bee venom essence for his younger brother suffering from sensitive and allergic skin. Although the remedy was meant to stay in the family, its efficacy motivated the brothers to start the pharmaceutical brand.

The name ‘Benton’ draws inspiration from the famous film “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.” The Koreans’ mispronunciation of Button, the protagonist, led the Won brothers to pick it as a suitable brand’s name.
Benton’s mission revolves around making everyone’s skin beautiful, a vision that’s backed with the use of environmentally-friendly and helpful ingredients to heal the skin without causing irritation. At the moment, Benton is home to a plethora of skin-conditioning and beautifying skin care products. Most importantly, it has maintained its commitment to diversification, promising skincare enthusiasts to expect more from the brand.
