When “anti-aging cosmetics” rank among the top three most searched terms on Xiaohongshu and Douyin’s official platforms, Mingyu Cosmetics Leveraging its advantage as a direct-from-source manufacturer, the brand has turned ergothioneine—a powerful antioxidant ingredient—into a runaway hit. In just three months, the repurchase rate for its fall-season single-item product soared to 58%, and despite three restocks across offline channels, it still sold out every time. So what exactly did Mingyu Cosmetics do right this fall?

 Anti-Aging Cosmetics Manufacturing Facility

1. Direct supply from the source factory, with active ingredients locked in freshness.
Mingyu Cosmetics operates a state-of-the-art, nearly 20,000-square-meter source factory that maintains sterile conditions throughout the entire production process—from fermentation and purification to bottling. Given ergothioneine’s extreme sensitivity to temperature and light, the factory employs an ultra-rapid cryogenic preservation technology using liquid nitrogen at −196°C, which locks in ingredient activity at over 98%, significantly surpassing the industry average of 82%. This robust technological capability has driven a 210% surge in the B2B platform search index for Mingyu’s source factory, directly boosting consumer awareness on the B2C front.

II. Ergothioneine × Tripeptide: Precisely Targeting Aging Signals
The R&D team has formulated a proprietary blend of 2,000 ppm high-purity ergothioneine with palmitoyl tripeptide-5 and acetyl hexapeptide-8, creating a dual-action “antioxidant + collagen-stimulating” pathway. Clinical data show that after 28 days, fine lines are reduced by 31% and skin elasticity increases by 27%. Compared with traditional retinol, this formulation does not require a build-up period, can be used during the day, and is safe for sensitive skin—resulting in an impressive conversion rate of 19.8% for anti-aging cosmetics, significantly above the industry average.

3. Dual-action whitening and moisturizing—one bottle solves dryness, aging, and dullness.
In addition to anti-aging benefits, Mingyu has also incorporated 5D hyaluronic acid and alpha-arbutin, resulting in a texture that strikes the perfect balance between serum and lotion—non-comedogenic for oily skin and non-stripping for dry skin. Consumer reviews confirm: “My complexion doesn’t look sallow after staying up late, and foundation applies smoothly without settling into fine lines,” making this autumn product a runaway hit on Xiaohongshu and Douyin.

IV. Content-driven seeding + private-domain repurchase: a closed-loop, end-to-end journey
Mingyu Cosmetics partnered with 50 medical-grade KOLs to launch a 28-day check-in challenge, providing authentic documentation of fine-line changes. By converting public-domain traffic into private-domain engagement, the brand saw private-domain customers generate an average order value 2.4 times higher than those in the public domain, with repeat customers accounting for 61% of total sales.

V. Price Anchoring and Scenario Positioning
While international luxury brands price ergothioneine at over RMB 800 per unit, Mingyu has positioned its product in the mid-to-high-end segment, leveraging the “same premium-grade ingredient at one-third the price” value proposition to deeply resonate with consumers. In addition, the brand has launched two signature limited-edition gift sets—“Late-Night Emergency Rescue Serum” and “Pre-Wedding Intensive Repair”—which precisely address the pain points of women aged 30–45, driving monthly sales of 500,000 units for each individual product.

From upstream raw materials and midstream R&D to downstream marketing, Mingyu Cosmetics Leveraging the strength of a direct-from-source factory, we’ve turned ergothioneine-based anti-aging cosmetics into a “buy-at-first-sight” blockbuster, setting a replicable growth blueprint for domestic skincare brands.
