Jayunhwa Core Active Serum 50ml

A Capsule Boosting Serum Rooted in Ginseng Science

This anti-wrinking functional serum layers a multi-ginseng complex: high-concentration saponins from fermented baby ginseng, aged ginseng fruit, refined ginseng seed oil, and red ginseng. Lecithin-based capsules—similar in structure to skin lipids—gently dissolve to deliver active ingredients with stability. Use it as a boosting serum after toner to help rebalance disrupted skin and support elasticity care.

Elasticity Synergy from 5-Peptide Complex and Retinol

Five peptides, each with a distinct function, work in concert.

Acetyl Hexapeptide-8: targets expression lines
Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5: supports eye-area firmness
Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5: reinforce skin elasticity
Carnosine: antioxidant care

Retinol refines skin texture, while adenosine adds anti-wrinkle functionality. Together, they help restore structure to skin that's beginning to lose its bounce.

The Right Choice for Skin Showing Early Signs of Elasticity Loss

Ideal for those noticing a decline in firmness with age, or struggling with uneven texture. After cleansing morning and evening, apply an appropriate amount after toner, smoothing along the skin's natural texture and patting gently to absorb. For a more hydrated finish, layer with lotion or cream to complete your routine.

After toner, before hydration: the firming boost step

After cleansing, use your toner to prep the skin, then apply this serum before your lotion or cream. The capsule formula delivers ginseng and peptides to the skin in a stable, targeted way, helping the moisturizing steps that follow absorb more effectively.

Can be used morning and night, but evening is recommended

Because it contains retinol, it's best to focus on your evening routine. You can use it in the morning, but if you do, be sure to finish with a thorough layer of sunscreen. If you're new to the product, we recommend starting with evening-only application and monitoring how your skin responds.

Gently smooth over skin to let the capsules melt

Dispense an appropriate amount into your palms and smooth gently over the entire face, following the natural texture of your skin. The lecithin-based capsules melt at body temperature to release their contents, so rather than rubbing, gently cup your palms over your face to help absorption—it's more effective that way.

Routine pairings for firming concerns

If your skin has lost firmness, try prepping with Jayoonhwasoo Toner from the same line, layering this serum on top, and finishing with Jayoonhwayooaek Emulsion for a synergistic effect. If dryness is a concern, follow your lotion with a richer cream to reinforce the moisture barrier.

Precautions when using retinol products

• Due to the nature of retinol, using it on the same day as AHA, BHA, or high-concentration vitamin C may cause irritation
• If you're new to retinol, start with 2–3 times per week and gradually increase frequency as your skin adjusts
• If you experience severe redness, flaking, or tightness, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist
• Store in a cool place away from direct sunlight and keep out of reach of children
