Ginseng Extract
A Revitalizing Botanical That Energizes, Firms, and Brightens Skin
Ginseng Extract, derived from the root of the Panax ginseng plant, is a time-tested herbal ingredient widely used in traditional Korean and Chinese medicine. In modern skincare, it's valued for its anti-aging, brightening, and revitalizing properties that help improve skin tone, elasticity, and resilience.
What is Ginseng Extract?
Ginseng is a root extract known for its high concentration of ginsenosides—natural compounds with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. These help protect the skin from environmental stressors, improve circulation, and stimulate skin cell renewal. It's commonly used in anti-aging and brightening skincare to promote a healthier, more youthful appearance.
