Functions
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Antioxidant
Fights free radicals — the unstable molecules from UV, pollution, and stress that break down collagen and cause premature aging.
Soothing
Calms redness, irritation, and inflammation. Your skin's chill pill — great for sensitive, reactive, or post-procedure skin.
Locks in moisture
Traditional Use
Ginseng root has been central to Traditional Chinese Medicine and Korean herbal medicine for over 4,000 years, prized for its adaptogenic and rejuvenating properties. Hydrolyzed ginseng was developed in modern skincare to enhance skin penetration and exploit its traditional benefits for vitality and anti-aging.
