[Beauty of Joseon] Ginseng Essence Water

Overview

• This is an essence / toner-type product, designed to deliver hydration, balance, and nourishment in a lightweight, “water-essence” texture.

• Inspired by traditional Korean herbal medicine (Hanbang) with ginseng as a core ingredient, blending heritage ingredients with modern skincare actives.

• The product is suitable for daily use (morning and night) for all skin types, with particular benefits for skin showing signs of dryness, dullness, or early ageing.

Key Benefits

• Deep hydration and moisture retention: Because it’s formulated with a high proportion of ginseng root water, it helps deliver and hold moisture in the skin.

• Skin texture & radiance improvement: Helps smooth the skin surface, refine texture, and give a more even, brighter-looking complexion.

• Oil-moisture balance & barrier support: With niacinamide (and other actives) included, it aims to help regulate sebum/oil, support skin barrier, and calm the skin.

• Lightweight layerable texture: Because it’s “essence water”, it layers nicely under serums and creams without heavy feel.

Star Ingredients

• Ginseng Root Water (≈ 80%) + Ginseng Complex: This is the headline ingredient. The brand states around 80% ginseng root water in the formulation. Ginseng is used for its antioxidant, nourishing, revitalising properties in skin.

• Niacinamide (≈ 2%): A well-known skincare active for improving texture, balancing oil, brightening, and supporting barrier.

• Adenosine (≈ 0.04%): An anti-ageing ingredient that supports collagen production and smoothes fine lines.

• Other supportive ingredients: glycerin, butylene glycol, panthenol, hyaluronic acid, etc. (see full ingredients list)

How to Use

1. After cleansing, optionally after toner if you use one, dispense a few drops of the essence into palms or onto a cotton pad.

2. Gently pat/press the essence into the skin on face (and neck if desired). Using upward motions helps absorption.

3. Follow with your usual serum and moisturizer to “lock in” the hydration and actives.

4. Use both morning and night for best results, although if you’re new you can start at night and then incorporate morning.
