FAQ
What does Beauty of Joseon Ginseng Essence Water actually do for skin?↓
This first essence delivers an initial surge of hydration while preparing skin to better absorb the serums and moisturizers applied afterward. It contains ginseng extract, a staple in traditional Korean skincare known for its antioxidant and skin-brightening properties.
How do you use a Korean first essence in a skincare routine?↓
A first essence is applied immediately after cleansing and toning, before serums or ampoules. You can pat a small amount directly onto your face with your palms or use a cotton pad to gently sweep it across the skin.
Is Beauty of Joseon Ginseng Essence Water suitable for sensitive skin?↓
The formula is generally considered gentle and free from harsh irritants, making it suitable for most skin types including sensitive skin. However, if you have a known sensitivity to fermented ingredients or ginseng, it is advisable to do a patch test first.
What is the key ingredient in this essence and why is ginseng used in K-Beauty?↓
The hero ingredient is ginseng (Panax Ginseng Root Extract), which has been used in Korean herbal medicine for centuries for its adaptogenic and antioxidant properties. In skincare, ginseng is valued for helping to improve skin radiance, support elasticity, and combat oxidative stress.
How is a first essence different from a regular toner or serum?↓
A first essence sits between a toner and a serum in the K-Beauty layering system, offering a lighter consistency than a serum but more active nourishment than a basic toner. Its primary role is to enhance the skin's receptivity so that subsequent skincare steps work more effectively.
