Ian saw his wife, MJ, using a sheet mask and was shocked by the toxic ingredients. When it comes to sheet masks, you have to be very cautious about the ingredients because you leave the mask on your face for 20–30 minutes to help them absorb into the skin. However, conventional sheet masks are mostly from abroad and made with toxic chemicals to prevent molding—which you don’t want your skin to absorb, as they will irritate your skin.
Ian juggled being a dad to two babies while turning his vision into reality. Using his knowledge as a biomaterial scientist, he worked to substitute the toxic chemicals with safe and effective ingredients.
Finally, Ian invented the world’s first organic sheet mask using the finest ingredients—ones that benefit the skin and are also safe to use. MJ’s sensitive skin improved significantly, and she felt confident with her calm and radiant complexion.
Ian created the brand name ORGAID, combining “organic” and “aid.” Not long after launching, many people who were concerned about the harsh ingredients in sheet masks joined Ian’s journey. As ORGAID grew, Ian and the team opened a second headquarters in California.
Ian didn’t stop there. He sourced the most beneficial natural ingredients for the skin and developed ORGAID’s own bioactive extract.
Finally, ORGAID now offers a full set of organic skincare, with an ongoing journey to find the best solutions for the skin, in the safest manner.
