When curating the Sonagi Spring Box, we wanted to capture that fresh start energy — the feeling of stepping out into the sunlight after a long winter, skin soft, hydrated, and glowing.
That’s when we discovered Mesacosa - a rising Korean skincare brand crafting formulas inspired by hanbang (한방) tradition and powered by one beautiful ingredient: plum blossom, or maehwa.
And instead of picking a product off a shelf, we asked them:
“Would you make something just for us?”
They said yes.
And this is why we are proud to introduce the Mesacosa Maehwasoo Serum & Cream,
made to order, in small batches, exclusively for Sonagi.
🌼 Why Plum Blossom?
Every spring, plum blossoms bloom just before cherry blossoms — making them a symbol of resilience and quiet strength in Korean culture. In skincare, plum blossom extract is a goldmine of antioxidants, flavonoids, and natural brightening agents. It’s gentle on sensitive skin yet effective enough to calm, protect, and even out skin tone.
Mesacosa sources their maehwa extract from farms in the southern region of Korea, using a low-temperature extraction process to preserve nutrients without damaging the integrity of the plant. They don’t mass-produce. They don’t jump on trends. Everything is intentional, slow, and small-batch.
In skincare, plum blossom is known to:
- Brighten dull or uneven skin
- Soothe redness and inflammation
- Protect against environmental stress
It’s your skin’s soft reset button.
🌼 Made for Sonagi — Literally
The Mesacosa Maehwasoo Serum (10ml) and Cream (15g) in our Sonagi Spring Box can’t be found anywhere else. No stores. No Amazon. No secret link.
They were:
- Hand made to order in small batches

potency - Vegan, cruelty-free, 100% natural origin, with certified organic farming standards

🌼 Why We Chose It
We didn’t just want any cream and serum. We wanted skincare that felt:
Luxurious but minimal, Grounded in Korean seasonal skincare philosophy, Travel-friendly (but not sample-sized throwaways), and Special — something you couldn’t get elsewhere.
When Mesacosa agreed to a made-to-order run just for Sonagi, we knew we had something rare. And the result? A duo that reflects everything we want Sonagi to be: curated, considered, and quietly beautiful.
