Our philosophy

We don't think of this as selling.
We think of it as sharing
with friends.

I.

Shared, not sold.

Every product here is something we'd genuinely tell a friend about. Not a curated shelf built for margin — a list built the way you'd be excited to share with someone you care about.

II.

Placed in our own spaces.

If we wouldn't put it on our shelf, in our bathroom, on our desk — it doesn't belong here. The bar is simple: would we actually want to keep this for a long time — and would it bring a little joy?

III.

Recommended to friends.

The final test: would we be happy to give this as a gift to someone we care about? Or tell someone we love to buy this? Not as a professional endorsement — as a genuine, personal recommendation with no agenda behind it.

A platform that started
with one good product.

The things we bring to Find My Mood are the same things we'd put in our own spaces, use in our own routines, and tell our friends about over coffee. Not because we're in the business of selling them — but because we genuinely believe they make everyday life feel a little joyful.

Find My Mood didn't start as a business plan. It started the moment a friend asked what I was using — and I found myself genuinely excited to tell them. Not just about the product, but where to get it, why I loved it, and why I'd already bought it as a gift.

After 18 years in busy corporate life across Asia and Europe — countless business trips, late nights, early flights — a little shopping after a long day became its own kind of joy. Not luxury shopping. The quiet kind: something famous only in that city, something worth testing, something worth bringing home. A lip balm. A herbal candy. A pillow spray. Small things that made the journey feel a little more like living.

When I loved something, I got it for friends and family too. That instinct — to share what's good, not sell it — is what Find My Mood is built on. After all those small discoveries across all those cities, one thing became clear: the most durable connections are built on genuine trust, not pitch. People trust people who've actually been where they are.

That's all this is, really. Finding good things. Bringing them closer. Passing them on.

Scouting Maison & Objet, Sep 2026

How a brand earns a place here

01
Discovery

We find brands through personal use, travel, peer recommendation, and events like Maison & Objet — not through inbound pitches or PR. It's like a little treasure hunt!

02
Real use

We use the product ourselves — in real life, over real time. No PR samples reviewed in a week. It earns its place by actually being good. We don't want to add more to your space — this should be good enough to replace something you've already got. We don't need more. We just need a good one.

03
The story

We learn the brand's story, values, and supply chain. If the product is good but the brand doesn't hold up, it doesn't make it. It's all about alignment!

04
The introduction

We bring it to the right audience — in the UK, EU, or Korea — with the full story of why we chose it. Not a product listing. A proper introduction to our friends.

What we are — and aren't

A different kind of shop.

Not this
A marketplace competing on price and volume.

We don't carry hundreds of brands. We don't chase trending products. We don't take gifted items in exchange for placement.

This
A place where every recommendation is something we'd share with a friend.

We carry a small number of brands we genuinely stand behind. Every product has a story. Every recommendation is real.

Not this
A dropship store stocking whatever sells.

We're not a reseller chasing margins. We build real relationships with our brand partners — and those relationships show in the quality of what we bring.

This
A bridge between brands that deserve more attention and the audience that's ready for them.

Korea ⇄ UK ⇄ Europe. The right brand, to the right audience, with the right introduction.

and everyday objects that make life
