[Beauty of Joseon] Revive Eye Serum: Ginseng + Retinal

• An anti-aging eye treatment formulated by Beauty of Joseon, combining 10 % ginseng root extract and retinal (a vitamin A derivative) to support the delicate eye area.

• Positioned as a “serum” (though marketed for the eye zone), aiming at fine lines, wrinkles, dark circles, puffiness and signs of fatigue around the eyes.

• Comes in sizes including 10 ml and 30 ml in the Pakistani market.

Key Ingredients & What They Do

• Ginseng Root Extract (~10 %): A traditional Korean herb (“Shincho”, “herb of the gods”) rich in saponins, antioxidants and known for skin-revitalizing, circulation-boosting, tone-improving effects.

• Retinal (often liposome-stabilized): A more potent form of vitamin A derivative compared to retinol; helps with collagen stimulation, skin cell renewal and improves texture around the eyes. For example, some sources note 0.02% active retinal in liposome form.

• Additional supportive ingredients: Brightening agents (e.g., niacinamide), hydrating/moisture-retaining actives, soothing botanicals to minimize irritation around sensitive eye skin.

Benefits & Features

• Reduces visible fine lines and wrinkles around the eye region due to retinal’s action on collagen and renewal.

• Improves firmness and elasticity, making the under-eye area appear smoother and less crepey.

• Brightens the eye zone and aids in dark-circle reduction via ginseng and brightening other supplementary ingredients.

• Lightweight, non-sticky texture suited for layering (under eye creams, or on top of moisturizer) and for the sensitive skin around the eyes.

How to Use

• Use in your evening routine, after cleansing and toning (if you use toner) and before your eye cream or moisturizer. Many sources recommend night use because retinal increases sensitivity to sun.

• Take a small amount (usually one pump or a small drop) and gently tap around the orbital bone, under the eyes, outer corners, upper lids (if you wish and if tolerated) — avoid getting it too close to the lash line/eyelashes to prevent irritation.

• Because retinal is a potent active, if you are new to it, begin every other night or few times a week, then increase frequency as your skin tolerates. Some users layer a good hydrating moisturizer on top.

• Morning after use: Make sure to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with adequate SPF to protect the eye-area skin.
