RIMAN Honored With iF DESIGN AWARD, Strengthening Its Global Brand Leadership

SEOUL, South Korea – RIMAN, a premium Korean skincare and wellness brand, announced its ICD Dermatology Line, featuring boosters, serums, and creams, has received the iF DESIGN AWARD 2026 in the Packaging Design category.
The packaging reimagines RIMAN’s signature ingredient, Giant BYoungPool™ (Giant Centella Asiatica), in a minimalist and sophisticated form. The distinctive ‘Greenish Ivory’ color, inspired by Lava BYoungPool Water™, symbolizes clarity and vitality and reflects the synergy between Jeju Lava Energy Water and Giant BYoungPool™.
The hue expresses the purity and energy of nature reinforced by the brand’s science-driven approach to skincare. This distinctive color identity reflects RIMAN’s positioning at the convergence of heritage ingredients and advanced research.
ICD Dermatology Line – Booster, Serum and Cream
The uniquely textured cap surface draws inspiration from Jeju’s volcanic basalt, known for its natural filtration of Lava Energy Water. This tactile detail transcends decoration and symbolizes the brand’s origin and philosophy while strengthening its authentic connection to Jeju’s pristine environment.
Youngsu Hwang, Global Chief Sales Officer with RIMAN, commented:

“As well as representing a design achievement, this award also validates our ingredient-centered philosophy and long-term commitment to integrating research, innovation, and brand identity. We will continue elevating RIMAN as a differentiated global K-beauty brand.”

Raising the Standard: How Greenway Global’s Persian Gulf Cruise Redefined the MLM Lifestyle

In network marketing, incentives are not just about rewards, they are about vision.
When Greenway Global brought 600 qualified partners aboard the ultra-modern MSC Euribia for a seven-day voyage across the Persian Gulf, the company wasn’t simply organizing a cruise. It was demonstrating what a higher standard of life in MLM truly looks like.
Departing from Dubai, the journey became a living illustration of how entrepreneurship in direct selling can expand not only income — but mindset, environment, and personal benchmarks.
Network Marketing as a Vehicle for Lifestyle Elevation
The route — Dubai, Doha, Bahrain, Abu Dhabi, Sir Bani Yas, and back to Dubai — offered more than postcard views. It symbolized mobility. Freedom. Choice.

Waking up each morning in a new country reframes what is possible. For many partners, this was proof that the MLM profession, when approached strategically, can finance experiences traditionally reserved for corporate executives.
In direct selling, environment shapes ambition. And stepping onto a 331-meter flagship liner with 19 decks and 2,400 cabins sends a clear psychological message: raise your standards.
Leadership Development at Sea
Yet luxury without growth would be hollow. The cruise was deliberately structured as a floating leadership academy.  During the cruise, top executives — including company CEO Svetlana Semenova, Vice
