Our founders and certified esthetician, Ron & Lina Kwok, struggled their whole lives with acne and redness. They saw how their own sensitive skin react to active ingredients making it nearly impossible to transform stubborn skin issues like breakouts, dark spots, redness, and dull texture.
Their mission was to create a transformative skincare line using all the best actives, but safe for the most sensitive skin.
Dozens of top chemists, dermatologists, and years of research later, Clearly Basics finally lets everyone use actives totally worry-free.
Our Promise to You
Skincare is truly a science, where everything down to the water used needs to be considered. That's why we source the cleanest, potent, vegan, and non-irritating ingredients free of toxins and fillers. All of our products gently deliver the function they promise as well as hydration and skin barrier support, which we believe are the requirements for healthy glowing, #GlassSkin.
Our products are backed by scientific research from chemists of top universities in Japan, Singapore and Korea. We use latest science and AI to identify botanical extracts rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and fatty acids. These plant actives are packed into our formulas and tested in third-party trials. The results? Our products outperform other leading brands!
Sustainability Matters – Deforestation is the second leading cause of carbon pollution. Trees clean our air, filter water, and absorb carbon emissions. They're disappearing at alarming rates. We plant one tree for every Clearly Basics order with to help build a sustainable future.
Clearly Basics marks a new approach to skincare for problematic skin. Being founded by an Expert Esthetician and formulated by acclaimed doctors and chemists we live by two core questions: What does the science say and how can we make it usable? Well there’s a third thing… being authentic.
"We were so tired of over-hyped and over-promised products that just wasted our money." When Founders Ron & Lina developed Clearly Basics they were tired of the OTC hamster wheel of products full of toxins. "We understand your pains and frustrations, that’s what gave birth to Clearly Basics." and the rest is history.
