Our skin naturally follows a 28-day cycle of renewal and gentle exfoliation. When this rhythm is disrupted by buildup of dead skin cells blocking the pores, it can cause irritation and leave the complexion looking dull and uneven.
With this in mind, Beauty of Joseon formulated a gentle, lightweight toner to help remove residual dead skin cells and sebum that may remain after cleansing.
At the heart of this toner is the power of plum, a long-standing herbal remedy, now harnessed for its cosmetic benefits in skin texture care and dead cell removal. Working in harmony with mung bean extract—a skin-soothing powerhouse—and the chemical exfoliants AHA and BHA, this toner is all set to revitalize your skin's natural glow.
Daily Exfoliating Toner
Green Plum Toner is ideal for use in the morning and evening during the first step of skin care to wipe away residual waste and smooth out the skin texture.
Key ingredients
Green plum water 25% + Mung bean extract 2%
Donguibogam, an herbal medicine book from the Joseon Dynasty, states that plums lower the temperature, ease the mind, and help stop thirst and diarrhea. Throughout Korean history, plum and mung bean were valued for their medicinal properties, often used to ease digestive discomfort and eliminate toxins. When used in skincare, plum water and mung bean extract help refine skin texture and deliver lasting hydration.
AHA + BHA
With a mixture of 2% glycolic acid and 0.5% salicylic acid, you can use it every morning and evening to remove dead skin cells without irritating your skin. It is made with a mild formula that combines a low concentration of chemical exfoliants and plant extracts rather than attempting to create powerful effects via overly high concentrations of AHA and BHA since cosmetics are not categorized as drugs.
