The Coreana Cosmetics Museum is the only museum in Korea that exclusively deals with traditional Korean cosmetic culture. Established in November 2003 with the purpose of preserving and introducing traditional cosmetic culture, the museum has continued to grow through its exhibitions and research projects. The museum focuses on improving the understanding of the history and trends of Korean cosmetic culture through its permanent and special exhibitions featuring modern cosmetics as well as natural cosmetic materials, cosmetic containers, and makeup tools that were used from the Unified Silla period to modern times.
