Background After the coronavirus disease‐19 (COVID‐19) pandemic, the definition of health continuity, well‐being, and well‐dying is also evolving. Objectives This review is about the utilization of nuclear factor erythroid 2‐related factor 2 (NRF2) for customized inner beauty products and customized cosmetics through Direct‐To‐Consumer (DTC) genetic testing in the non‐face‐to‐face era that is evolving after the global pandemic. Methods In May 2021, we proposed a narrative review as a new report and commentary. It was written with reference to keywords such as “Covid DTC Genetic Test,” “Covid 4th industrial revolution,” “Covid NRF2,” and “Antioxidants.” This study was performed by searching on PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, and ResearchGate. A total of 432 papers were retrieved, of which 40 were successfully included in this study. Results With the rapid transition to a non‐face‐to‐face society after COVID‐19, the concept of DTC was born, which allows consumers to receive genetic testing directly without visiting a medical institution. Based on the 4th industrial revolution, a convergence medical device is needed to secure the function as an NRF2 regulator of antioxidants in customized inner beauty products and customized cosmetics. Conclusion Therefore, let us look at the fact that a fusion medical device based on the 4th industrial revolution has emerged in the global DTC genetic test market, which is still insufficient to summarize important research results. This study is expected to be an important data for the development of antioxidants as NRF2 regulators in customized inner beauty products and customized cosmetics. As mobile use increases in the future, additional research focusing on app development is needed, and various follow‐up studies are also needed.
