Beauty of Joseon
Inspired by the Joseon era of South Korea, Beauty of Joseon creates timeless and inspired skincare that is holistic and heals the skin. Following traditional Korean remedies and medicine, their cosmetics are rich in soothing botanical extracts that help boost skin healing, improve texture and refresh the soul. Inspired by the Gyuhap Chongseo guide on peaceful living – their skincare line strives for gentle and holistic beauty.
Ginseng Skincare Line
One of their most famous product line infuses restoring ginseng into skin to hydrate and heal. Ginseng stimulates regrowth of skin cells, is rich in antioxidants and prevents environmental damage and helps stimulate the immune system for stronger, glowing skin. This ranges from their ginseng cleansing oil (to gently cleanse and hydrate) to their refreshing ginseng essence water.
Hanbang Serum Line
Distilled into their Hanbang serum kit, Beauty of Joseon has four famous serums that are designed to refresh, hydrate and balance skin. This includes their Glow Serum (enriched with brightening niacinamide and soothing honeybee propolis), their Glow Deep Serum (brightening rice extracts and alpha arbutin), Revive Serum (renewing ginseng and snail mucin) and their cooling Calming Serum (balanced with green tea and panthenol). Each serum is iconic, hydrating and perfectly designed to rejuvenate skin cells.
Suncare Line
Beauty of Joseon is also incredibly famous for their lightweight and hydrating suncare line. From their famous Relief Sun Cream (which refreshes dry skin with rice extract and healing probiotics) to its other half, the
Relief Sun Cream Aqua-Fresh (designed for oily skin care and SPF+50 protection). Each sun cream is designed to be ultra-light, absorb quickly and leave no cast – which is reminiscent of a light serum rather than a thick, occlusive sunscreen. It slides perfectly under make-up, provides strong protection and also moisturizes and protects the skin – making an iconic K-Beauty suncare line.
