• Gentle Cleansing Oil — A Korean Herbal Oil Complex that melts away sunscreen, waterproof makeup, and sebum in one step — then emulsifies to rinse clean without residue. The first step of the Korean double cleanse, refined by 50+ years of hanbang science.

Notable Ingredients

• Korean Herbal Oil Complex — Each oil brings different fatty acid profiles: sesame seed oil is rich in linoleic acid (48%) for barrier support, apricot kernel in oleic acid (54-74%) for deep emollient nourishment, and camellia japonica provides a lightweight, fast-absorbing moisture film. Together they cleanse without stripping the skin's own lipids.
• Camellia Japonica Seed Oil — Camellia japonica (동백) has been used in Korean beauty for centuries — historically as a hair and skin oil by Jeju Island women. Its fatty acid profile is similar to olive oil but lighter, making it an ideal cleansing oil component that dissolves impurities without heaviness.
• Squalane — In a cleansing oil, squalane serves a dual purpose: it helps dissolve oil-based impurities (like dissolves like) while leaving behind a thin moisture layer that prevents the tight, stripped feeling after washing.
• Nelumbo Nucifera (Lotus) Seed Extract — One of several hanbang (한방) botanical extracts in this formula — alongside plum seed, chestnut shell, and citrus unshiu peel. These traditional Korean ingredients provide antioxidant support and a calming finish to the cleansing step.
