Our ingredients
ARBUTIN, LICORICE ROOT, AND TRANEXAMIC ACID
This potent trio works harmoniously to combat hyperpigmentation and promote an even skin tone. Arbutin, a natural derivative of hydroquinone, effectively lightens dark spots and enhances overall brightness by inhibiting tyrosinase, an enzyme that helps produce melanin, which is responsible for skin pigmentation. Licorice root extract contains glabridin, which also inhibits tyrosinase, further reducing melanin synthesis and aiding in the diminishment of discoloration. Tranexamic acid complements these ingredients by disrupting the melanin synthesis pathway, resulting in a more uniform skin tone. Together, these compounds create an excellent approach for achieving a brighter, clearer, and more radiant complexion.
BAKUCHIOL
Bakuchiol is a plant-derived compound known for its skin-enhancing benefits, serving as a natural alternative to retinol without causing irritation or peeling. While structurally different, bakuchiol parallels retinol's effects by strengthening the skin barrier and reducing fine lines and wrinkles through similar gene expression. It promotes cellular turnover and collagen production, improving skin elasticity and firmness. Clinical studies show that bakuchiol enhances skin texture and tone, offering a smoother, more youthful appearance. Gentle and suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin and during pregnancy, regular use of bakuchiol leads to a radiant complexion and provides antioxidant protection against environmental stressors.
BROCCOLI & GREEN TEA
Rich in antioxidants, Broccoli and Green Tea extract deliver potent protective benefits to the skin. Broccoli is packed with sulforaphane, a sulfur-rich compound that is a natural antioxidant and has shown to provide skin protection from UV rays by upregulating the expression of cytoprotective proteins. Green Tea contains polyphenols, which are plant-based antioxidants that reduce oxidative stress, and with its anti-inflammatory properties, calms irritated skin. Together, they combat oxidative stress, improve skin clarity, and enhance overall skin vitality, resulting in a refreshed and radiant appearance.
FERMENTED BLACK GINSENG
Black ginseng undergoes a unique process involving nine cycles of steaming and drying, followed by fermentation, which significantly enhances the levels of bioactive ginsenosides. Ginsenosides are the primary bioactive compounds in ginseng responsible for the potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging effects observed in various studies. Fermented Black Ginseng, widely valued in Asian skincare, contains higher concentrations of ginsenosides such as Rg3, Rk1, and Rg5 compared to other types of ginseng. These compounds are potent antioxidants that help protect the skin from oxidative stress, and promote skin rejuvenation, leading to a healthier and more luminous complexion.
GINSENG BERRY
Ginseng berry is a very rare fruit celebrated for its adaptogenic properties, helping the skin adapt to environmental stressors while promoting overall vitality. Rich in antioxidants, it aids in reducing inflammation and enhancing skin resilience. The berry's nourishing compounds support improved skin texture and elasticity. Regular incorporation of ginseng berry into skincare routines can provide a revitalizing effect, leaving the skin looking fresh, smooth, and radiant.

Cucurbita Pepo (pumpkin) is rich in vitamins A, C, and E, which are known for their antioxidant properties, help protecting the skin from oxidative stress and free radicals, which contribute to aging. Decursin and decursinol angelate, two pyranocoumarin compounds found in Angelica Gigas have shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory properties in multiple studies. The Hanbang Complex is formulated to deliver antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties to soothe irritation, brighten the skin, and reduce the visible signs of aging.
LIPID-CERAMIDE COMPLEX
Our Lipid-Ceramide Complex is a potent formulation designed to replenish ceramides, essential for maintaining skin barrier health. Ceramides serve as natural lipids that retain moisture and protect against environmental aggressors. This complex strengthens the skin's barrier, enhancing hydration retention and defense against irritants. Research shows that topical ceramides significantly improve hydration, reduce trans-epidermal water loss, and enhance skin barrier integrity. Regular use can result in visibly smoother, healthier skin while reducing dryness and flakiness. Additionally, the formulation's fatty acids support the skin's lipid matrix, promoting elasticity and resilience. This dual action repairs damaged skin and ensures lasting hydration for a supple, radiant complexion. Our Lipid-Ceramide Complex is essential for restoring and maintaining optimal skin barrier function and achieving a revitalized, youthful appearance.

Cranberry seed oil is packed with omega fatty acids and vitamin E, which help protect the skin from environmental damage and promote a healthy glow. This luxurious blend not only hydrates but also enhances skin elasticity, leaving it soft, smooth, and radiant.
NIACINAMIDE & TRANEXAMIC ACID
This powerful duo visibly transforms skin by enhancing texture and tone, reducing redness and addressing dark spots. Niacinamide, a form of vitamin B3, enhances skin barrier function, reduces redness, and minimizes pore appearance. Tranexamic acid effectively addresses hyperpigmentation by inhibiting melanin production, leading to a more even skin tone. Together, they promote a radiant and smooth complexion by tackling both texture and discoloration.
PANAX GINSENG ROOT
