Headquartered in California, USA, the company operates primary business functions across the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, India, Pakistan, and Ireland.
Known for its science-led product innovation and professional grade skincare formulations, the brand has built a worldwide reputation for quality. With operations spanning four continents and a rapidly growing global workforce, managing secure and seamless digital identity at scale became a mission-critical requirement
The Challenge
Decentralized login management across multiple global regions created mounting friction for both users and the security team. Without a unified identity layer, every regional deployment operated in isolation forcing users to authenticate separately in each region and leaving security gaps across the organization.
Regional Login Management
Without SSO, managing user access across multiple regions increased security risks and forced repetitive logins for every employee across every location.
No Multi-IDP Support
The Application Lacked Built-In Support for Multiple Identity Providers, Limiting Centralized Authentication Across Regions
Rising Security Risks
Fragmented Identity Management Increased Security, Compliance, and Operational Risks Across All Global Deployments.
Inconsistent User Experience
Regional teams faced different login flows and access policies creating an inconsistent and frustrating user experience that slowed down daily operations.
The Solution
Keycloak was implemented as a Global Identity Provider (IDP) enabling the application to leverage a single, centralized authentication system across all regions. Regional Gluu servers integrate with Keycloak for seamless user authentication from any location.
Keycloak as Global Identity Provider
Keycloak was deployed as the central IDP providing a single, unified authentication layer across all four primary operating regions without rebuilding existing applications.
Regional Gluu Server Integration
Each regional Gluu server was integrated with the central Keycloak IDP — allowing users to authenticate locally while maintaining global SSO consistency across all deployments.
Single Sign-On Across All Regions
Users from any of the four regions can now access all applications with a single set of credentials eliminating repetitive authentication and improving productivity.
Centralized Security Policy Enforcement
With Keycloak as the central authority, consistent security policies and access controls are now enforced simultaneously across all regions closing the gaps that previously existed.
Zero Application Code Changes
The entire IDP implementation was completed without requiring any changes to existing application code minimizing disruption to internal development teams.
Scalable for Future Expansion
The Keycloak architecture is built to scale as the organization expands into new markets, additional regions can be onboarded without rebuilding the authentication infrastructure.
The Impact
under one IDP

Effortless Access Across All Regions
Users across all four regions now access applications effortlessly with a single login no more repetitive authentication or region specific credentials required.
Eliminated Security Vulnerabilities
Centralizing identity management under Keycloak closed the fragmented security gaps that previously existed across regional deployments reducing risk significantly.
Scalable for Future Expansion
The Keycloak architecture is built to grow as the organization expands into new markets, additional regions can be onboarded without rebuilding the authentication infrastructure.
Improved Operational Efficiency
IT teams no longer manage separate authentication systems per region a single Keycloak instance handles all identity operations globally, reducing operational overhead significantly.
