Ingredient In Focus: Ginseng in Korean Skincare
According to us, the proverb - good things take time – was meant for ginseng. This *really* slow-growing root has been a superfood since time immemorial, and today its many skincare benefits are used to gain super-fast glow-ups!
It takes 6 full years for this root to reach its max potency, and then it becomes a storehouse of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. But, wait! There is a lot more as to why this ingredient should be on your radar.
Top ginseng benefits for skin
Commonly used in East Asian countries as a medicine, it also has its root in skincare (pun, intended.) It’s been a vital part of Korean skincare since the 1500s, but has always managed to be the biggest skincare secret. Until the time when the world knew all about it, and went gaga over the much-hyped-but-worth-it red ginseng. It is like an elixir that can pretty much solve every skin issue.
Here are a few:
Anti-ageing properties: If you want to turn back time, then do it the ginseng-way. It blurs fine lines, wrinkles, as well as boosts skin’s hydration to prevent the formation of new ones.
Bye-bye dullness: Ginseng? More like ginzing! The energizing elements in ginseng awaken your skin, help reduce dark spots, and visibly brighten skin.
Balances dryness & oiliness: Yes, it can do both! So, no matter on which side of the spectrum your skin falls, ginseng’s antioxidant and moisture-retaining properties will help.
Acne, no more: Korean red ginseng is a god-sent for acne, skin irritation, and puffiness. Rely on its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, and watch them exit.
All that glows: It’s barely anytime since you start using ginseng and you’ll get comments like “you’re glowing!” pouring in. It keeps the overall skin healthy, and makes it GLOW!
