Jang Sam-Mool Beauty Wins Red Dot Design Award 2026

Jang Sam-Mool's new product, 'ARTIST EYE PALETTE CORE,' has been awarded the Winner title at the 2026 Red Dot Design Award, one of the three major design awards globally.

The Red Dot Design Award is recognized alongside Germany's iF and the USA's IDEA, distinguishing itself by evaluating not only aesthetic appeal but also usability, effective brand messaging, technological implementation, and future potential.

Receiving high praise, the 'ARTIST EYE PALETTE CORE' draws inspiration from individual iris colors, successfully translating the brand's core philosophy of 'true beauty' into both visual and functional aspects.

A notable feature is the top packaging design, which employs thin line graphics based on the brand slogan 'BEAUTY STARTS FROM YOU, JUST BELIEVE,' layering three distinct elements to intricately express the diverse and three-dimensional hues of the iris. Additionally, the packaging design connects the 'iris' graphic on the outside to the 'pupil' arrangement on the inside when opened, enhancing the coherence between internal and external design.

The internal divided design considers practical aspects of use, adjusting the surface area of frequently used base and eyeliner colors accordingly, demonstrating practical expertise from professional makeup artists.

The significance of this award is underscored by the achievement being entirely the result of Jang Sam-Mool's internal design team, encompassing everything from concept planning and structural design to 3D and graphic layering and final sampling supervision.

Including the 2026 Red Dot award, Jang Sam-Mool Beauty has entered 11 products into global design awards, achieving recognition for 8 of them, reflecting a commendable award rate of approximately 73%. This success validates the depth and quality of their in-house system, which integrates the brand’s philosophy and messaging throughout product design.

A spokesperson for Jang Sam-Mool Beauty stated, “This award is significant as it embodies the elevation of our beauty philosophy and makeup expertise without external interpretation. We will continue to pursue designs that encapsulate our brand's essence and unique usability, targeting the global market as a design frontier.”
