[Beauty of Joseon] Green Plum Refreshing Toner: AHA + BHA 150m

Here’s a detailed description of the Beauty of Joseon Green Plum Refreshing Toner :AHA + BHA (150 ml) — what it is, how it works, its key ingredients, suitability, usage tips and things to note.

Overview

• This is a lightweight exfoliating toner formulated to help remove dead skin cells, clear clogged pores, refine skin texture and restore glow.

• Size: 150 ml.

• Combines modern exfoliants (AHA + BHA) with traditional Korean-herbal-inspired ingredients (green plum water, mung bean extract) under the Beauty of Joseon brand’s Hanbang-inspired philosophy.

Key Benefits

• Gently exfoliates surface skin: The AHA (glycolic acid) helps to remove dead skin cells on the surface, promoting smoother texture and brightness.

• Clears pores and sebum: The BHA (salicylic acid) penetrates pores to reduce buildup of oil/sebum/impurities — great for refining large-pores or oily/combination skin.

• Supports skin barrier & soothing: Ingredients like mung bean extract and green plum water help provide hydration, calming and balancing support rather than just “stripping” exfoliation.

• Preps skin for follow-up treatments: By clearing the ‘residual waste’ and dead skin, it may improve absorption of subsequent serums/moisturisers.

Key Ingredients & Their Roles

• Green Plum Water (Prunus mume Fruit Water) – about ~25% according to some listings. Offers gentle exfoliation (natural acids) plus antioxidants and revitalising effect.

• AHA (Glycolic Acid ~2%) – helps with surface exfoliation, smoothing texture, brightening.

• BHA (Salicylic Acid ~0.5%) – helps clear pores and reduce oil/sebum-related issues.

• Mung Bean Extract (~2%) – plant extract to soothe, hydrate and support skin barrier.

• Additional supportive ingredients: Rice bran water, ginseng root extract, other botanical extracts for skin-calming and antioxidant benefits.

How to Use

• After cleansing, apply the toner either by moistening a cotton pad and gently sweeping over face, or by pouring into your palms and patting into skin.

• Use in morning or evening (or both) according to your skin’s tolerance. However, because it contains exfoliants, using a sunscreen in the day is essential.

• For best results: after application, continue with your serum and moisturiser to lock in hydration and benefits.

• Patch-test recommended if you’re new to AHA/BHA or have sensitive skin.
