BALOOM is expanding multi-functional booster gels with three targeted formulas designed to function as standalone treatments while supporting gua sha and microcurrent routines. The Peptide Booster Gel Cream combines five peptides with Centella and ceramide for firming care, while the Hydro version targets hydration, cooling and barrier support. A Phyto-PDRN formula uses spirulina-derived Sodium DNA alongside niacinamide, red ginseng and squalane. Each maintains the cushioning texture and glide needed for use with skincare tools.
For BALOOM, creating formulas that serve both treatment and tool-assisted routines allows individual products to address multiple consumer needs. The targeted variations can also encourage customers to purchase different gels for specific concerns rather than relying on one universal formula. Expanding the collection builds on the brand’s existing Collagen Booster Gel while strengthening its position within K-beauty and the growing market for at-home skincare devices.

What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Tool-compatible Skincare
- Hybrid formulas that perform as both treatments and device-friendly mediums create space for products designed around at-home beauty rituals.
- Targeted Booster Formulas
- Concern-specific gel variations reflect a shift away from universal skincare toward modular routines tailored to hydration, firming, barrier support and radiance.
- K-beauty Device Pairings
- The pairing of K-beauty actives with gua sha and microcurrent tools signals new potential for ritual-driven product systems that increase regimen complexity.
Sectors Adopting This
- Skincare
- Multi-use textures with active ingredients can reshape facial care by merging sensorial application, treatment benefits and compatibility with beauty tools.
- Beauty Devices
- At-home skincare tools benefit from dedicated companion products that enhance glide, conductivity and perceived results across daily routines.
- Cosmetics Retail
- Retail assortments built around tool-and-formula ecosystems create opportunities for bundled purchases, regimen education and higher-value skincare collections.
