Let’s dive into how one of the most loved Korean skincare “Beauty of Joseon” came to be the ‘most loved’.<\/em><\/p>\n

A long time ago in a distant land in the continent of Asia, there ruled a majestic dynasty known as the Great Joseon (1392 \u2013 1910). This dynasty was known for having one of the highest standards of living in East Asia. The land flourished along with its people under Confucianist rule but not everyone seemed to benefit from the policies made by the Confucianist dynasty.<\/p>\n

The women of this period under the Confucianist rule were told that inner beauty was more important than to be paying heed to their outer appearance and so, they did not have much care for their skin. This went on for some centuries until the 1800s.Little did the majority know that things were about to change not just for them but also for some parts of the world.<\/p>\n

The year is 1809, and a writer named Yi Bingheogak compiles her knowledge into a book which she names – Gyuhap Chongseo. This encyclopedia compiles wisdom on beauty secrets for women and also Hanbang (Korean traditional medicine). It teaches women of the Joseon Dynasty period, mostly from the upper class on makeup and also skincare. It was from here onwards that the emphasis on skincare and aesthetics gained momentum.<\/p>\n

The Gyuhap Chongseo has stood the test of time giving inspiration till date. The Beauty of Joseon founded by Sumin 7 years ago derives its source of inspiration from this book, particularly Hanbang (Korean traditional medicine).<\/p>\n

What is Hanbang?<\/h2>\n

The Beauty of Joseon has been inspired from the beauty secrets of the Joseon Dynasty, more specifically from the book of Gyuhap Chongseo. Their skincare lines make use of Hanbang which were earlier used as medicines and food for oral intake but with modern advancement in sciences, these traditional ingredients have been incorporated into skincare lines to give some of the best results in skincare.<\/p>\n

Hanbang consists of ingredients like ginseng, licorice, green tea, Mugwort, mushroom, etc. One reason as to why Hanbang is regarded with so much importance is because ingredients like ginseng for instance have been found to have so many health benefits. The discovery of ginseng was not hundreds of years ago but was actually discovered thousands of years ago. Ginseng as part of the Hanbang family has been revered with much importance in countries like China, Korea and Japan till date.<\/p>\n
