Nineteen years ago, during a trip to France, Zhang Ting and her husband Lin Ruiyang stumbled upon a milk-derived strain of bacteria that could preserve youthful skin. Intrigued by its potential, they decided to bring this active ingredient back to Taiwan for research and development, with the aim of incorporating it into skincare products. After nineteen years of technological advancement and research, they successfully developed the world’s first skincare line with live yeast as the main ingredient. This unique skincare line, named “Tin’s Secret,” is a tribute to the brand’s spokesperson, Zhang Ting.
