We explore the essence,
and reinterpret its value.

A lifestyle curation brand born in Jeju

Left Behind. Loved Again.
SCROLL
WHY WE EXIST

Left Behind. Loved Again.

Every year, over 50,000 tons of citrus pomace — the byproduct left after juicing — is discarded in Jeju. Citrus has been used as traditional medicine for centuries, and even the peel has long been brewed as tea. Yet once the juice is extracted, all that remaining value is simply thrown away.

Left Behind. Loved Again.

JEJULABS was born from that sense of loss. We rediscover the essence hidden in what has been left behind, reinterpret its value, and bring it into people's everyday lives. That is why we exist.

Before asking what to make, we first ask why. We believe that when the reason is clear, the method and the result follow naturally.

"Left Behind. Loved Again."
From what remains, we create lasting value.
GOLDEN CIRCLE

How We Work

JEJULABS starts not with what we make, but with why we do it.

WHY

Purpose

We discover new value in Jeju's overlooked resources and bring that value into people's everyday lives.

HOW

Approach

We explore the essence of discarded resources and reinterpret them through green chemistry and proprietary patented technologies. It could be citrus pomace — or another untapped resource from Jeju.

WHAT

Result

Our first journey: delivering the antioxidant power of citrus pomace to the skin through vegan clean beauty skincare.

KEY INGREDIENT

Gyulbaksu — Born from Discarded Peels

A natural ingredient derived from citrus pomace left after juicing Jeju's pesticide-free citrus, using only water and heat through our proprietary distillation and extraction process. It contains over 90% natural monoterpenes with high antioxidant activity, delivering a subtle citrus aroma without any artificial fragrances.

Our distillation process extracts beneficial compounds from citrus pomace while separating volatile essential oils and organic acids that can burden the soil. The remaining pomace is left in an environmentally safe state, contributing to resource circulation.
