Beauty of Joseon Ginseng Essence Water is a barrier-boosting essence packed with ginseng water and niacinamide for lasting hydration, nourishment and a glow boost. Ginseng has been treasured in Korean Hanbang tradition for centuries; here, ginseng root water and a ginseng complex nourish the skin with every drop, while niacinamide helps keep oil-moisture levels balanced. Its light, fast-absorbing watery texture is the first step of a ginseng routine and leaves the face soft, prepped and ready for serums, moisturizer and sunscreen.

Key Benefits

  • Lasting moisture: ginseng root water and a ginseng complex keep skin hydrated.
  • Moisture barrier support: a lightweight first layer that helps support the barrier.
  • Oil-moisture balance: niacinamide keeps skin comfortable, never greasy.
  • Glow boost: skin looks fresh and radiant.
  • Made to layer: pairs with any serum, moisturizer or sunscreen.

Key Ingredients

Ginseng root water hydrates and helps maintain moisture. The ginseng complex, with ginseng cell culture, root and berry extracts and a fermented ginseng filtrate, nourishes the skin and helps support the moisture barrier. Niacinamide helps keep oil-moisture levels balanced, and panthenol and allantoin add comfort.
