Traditional Korean Anti Aging Skin Care On a Budget (Introduction to Hanbang Skincare Part 2)

- Introducing the best Korean anti aging skin care brands that won’t break the bank.
Hanbang skincare is a Traditional Korean skincare practice that involves the use of herbal prescriptions and formulation techniques based on original principles of Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM) with incorporation of modern science. The main application of these principles lies in anti aging skincare, and many Korean anti aging brands are based on Hanbang philosophy.
Due to a number of particular factors I’ll discuss in this video, many of these brands come at a pretty steep price point. In this video however, I’ll introduce you to the best entry-level traditional Korean anti aging skin care brands.
This video is the second and last part of a mini series on Hanbang skin care. In the first part I discussed the characteristics of Hanbang cosmetics and the principles they are based on. Part 1 of my introduction to Hanbang Skincare is available at the link below
• Introduction to Hanban...
I tried to keep these videos accessible and easy to follow even for casual skincare users with no prior knowledge of TKM or Oriental Medicine, however if you’d like to take a deep dive into the topic, I also wrote a very detailed article on Hanbang skincare on my website:

All original sources used to write this video are listed at the bottom of the article.

Discovering your channel was one of the best things that happened to me this year . I'm grateful and thankful to you for sharing your in-depth knowledge with us . I wish you a prosperous new year and hope that this channel grows by leaps and bounds very soon .
Thank you 😭😭 Fingers crossed! I planned my content for 2022 this week and I'll do my best to produce more content next year 🙏
@@OdileMonodTheMonodist with the quality of videos you're making you'll attract many more subscribers easy peasy :)
There is a Nature Collection store in my local H-Mart plaza that sells lots of Hanbang skincare that I've been curious to try, but don't want to pull the trigger on spending so much (especially as their return policy is very strict). I appreciate this video to learn more about these products and more about them before buying! I'm curious on finding products for brightening/helping calm redness and dark spots.
Yehwadam has an Artemisia line that is great to calm redness! If you're looking to lighten hyperpigmentation they have a line called Pure Brightening that is designed to be an entry-level version of Whoo's Gongjinhyang Seol and it’s pretty good!
Thank you kindly for this 😀❤️
🥰 thank you for the support!
Your videos are always so informative and super detailed. More than any article out there. Just ordered the Hwansaenggo Ultimate Rejuvenating Serum to give it a try and even got my mum a gift set in the hopes of introducing her to k-skin care. Thank you so much for taking the time to create each one of these videos :)
Thank you Odile 🙏🤗 this video was great👌👌👌
Thank you so much! I'm glad it was interesting 😍
Best Christmas gift ever getting your video for this series
Thank you 🥰 and to you as well!
Hi Odile, I've recently found and subscribed to your channel, I love listening to your soothing voice.
I'm in my early 50's and reside in Australia, my biggest concern is firmness and wrinkles, in particular my neck is starting to look saggy.
Can you please recommend the best products for me? In particular I'm interested in using skincare with active ingredients that will work on ageing skin.
Thank you in advance ❤
Again Odile, a wonderful informative video!!! Thank you for your recommendations.... happy holidays!!@
Thank you so much and hope you have a wonderful holiday season!
You make some of the best content on youtube by far - this video was a delight as ever. Unfortunately fragrance causes me to break out - do you know of any fragrance-free hanbang products (and if not, are there any hanbang-inspired products you might recommend)?
Your part 2 video was the holiday gift I needed right now! 😘 Hope you have a wonderful holiday and rest of the year💖
Thank you so much 🥰🥰 have a great holiday too!
thanks for introducing me more of hanbang skincare and tt there are other affordable options than just History of Whoo
You are a great show...just found you!! I am interested in Korean facial masks...what is the best. Also House of Pilla. products...what you think of them. Going to buy ginseng serum and cream based on this show ❤️
Thank you got the unique and well researched content!!! Sending lots of love from Colombia 🇨🇴
Pleasure is all mine! Thank you for the support 🥰
How did I missed this gem of a video!! Thank you for sharing this with us. I love herbal medicine and even more in beauty products 🤩🤩
Thank you! Herbal medicine deserves more love and recognition 😎
Really excited for part 2.
😍 Thank you!
@@OdileMonodTheMonodist Take care. Big fan of yours ❤
such a beautiful video! Thank you for this gift ^^ and the textures featured are so yummy... *-*
Thank you for the lovely comment 🥰🥰
I love your videos & looking forward to this one. Can you do a video or blog post on BB creams? The origin always seems vague when they say it was some German doctor who created it for his patients. And also recommendations for different ages. Would also love a video for 6th cycle products. Thanks and keep up the fantastic work!
I’ve heard about the German one too , I even bought it. However I think Korean made it famous and I still to this day only like Korean bb creams. I’ve only came across on western brand that somewhat can resemble a Korean bb cream. But even the ones directly imported to western country isn’t the original Korean formula. I think part of it is because western has different preferences and needs than East Asians… ie the whitening aspect of bb cream etc.
Thank you for your recommendations! I really want to try the Suryeohan cream now. Lately I have been trying products from Hanyul, an Amorepacific brand.
I love Hanyul 🥰 I initially planned to include them in this video but they a few months ago reformulated all their traditional lines that I like (the Geuk Jin and the Songdam) and I need some time to test them out 😅
Thanks so much for this....the music and style is so relaxing that I watch this as I fall asleep hahahah (that sounds a bit strange !🤭). I am going to try find out how to order that fermentation cream asap. I am a huge fan of traditional Korean and Chinese medicine as it's just amazing. I'm also a huge K Beauty fanatic and am wanting to start incorporate a more dense, rich cream.
Her video can definitely fall under ASMR for sure
Sehr informativ und kompetent! Vielen Dank und viele Grüße aus Deutschland!
그리고 새해 복 많이 받으세요.
Happy new year 🎉
감사합니다~ 새해 복 많이 받으세요 이다니엘님 🙇♀️🙇♀️
Amazing video
Thank you 🥰
I also wanted to ask, will you ever talk about Coreana company and their skincare products? I'd love to know which ones are decent.
I was just wondering if you could do a video on hanbang hair care?
Fantastic video as always, Odile! I'm not sure if you've mentioned it elsewhere before on your Instagram or Twitter, but I was wondering what are your thoughts the brand Beauty of Joseon? It's quite affordable for a student like me, but would you consider them a Hanbang beauty brand? And are there any products you would recommend? Thank you! 😊❤️
Thank you! Beauty of Joseon falls in the category of Hanbang-inspired brands since they use traditional ingredients formulated in a modern way. I don't mind their products per se, but I do find their marketing choices to be quite questionable to be completely honest. In my video on Korean Ginseng I raised the issue that they were making anti-aging claims without sharing details on which variety of ginseng they were using (long story short: not all of them have anti-aging properties) and six months after that video they got fined for making unauthorised marketing claims like I suspected ( I talked about it here twitter.com/odilemonod/status/1347485680826425351?t=ydIfS0CWmx-H8ZMnVUjigw&s=19). It would have been fine if they just promoted their serum an anti-oxidant product, but I'm not too fond of companies making regulated claims without knowing what they're doing 🤷♀️
@@OdileMonodTheMonodist Thank you for your elaborate and detailed reply! I had watched your video on ginseng earlier, but missed out on your Tweet and the fine, so thank you for raising that. Wishing you a wonderful new year, and keep making these incredibly educational videos :)
Sei molto competente e brava ti ascolto molto volentieri complimenti!
Grazie mille, mi fa davvero tanto piacere sentirlo 🙏
thanks for the video! :) I searched for Missha
MISA Geum Sul Vitalizing Eye Cream and it was discontinued:( Do you have any affordable alternatives for it? (concerns - loss of elasticity, sagging, wrinkles, dry skin) :) thank you!:)
Are any of these good for oily skin types? Or Which anti aging cream/serum would you recommend for oily skin? Thanks you!😘
Thank you so much for the informative video. I have a question, at what age should you start using anti aging products? And what is the ideal skincare for oily acne prone skin. ? Thank you in advance! 🤗
I know your question was directed to the creator but I did hear from a skincare pro that anti-aging products can start to be used when we hit second puberty which for women is when we hit our 20s since that's when we experience lots of body changes
Thanks for another informative video! On a similar matter, wanted to know your opinion on Yehwadan Brightening line. Do you find it effective? I have hyperpigmentation on my cheeks. Yehwadan brightening products caught my eye.
If it's post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, yes that line is pretty good (I liked the cream especially). For stubborn dark spots/sun damage and melasma I would recommend instead this product from the Hwansaenggo line which is more heavy-duty: www.glowpick.com/products/146791 you can find it on international websites listed either as "Yehwadam Hwansaenggo Yunseol Spot Cream" or "Yehwadam Hwansaenggo Snow Glow Dark Spot Correcting Cream". Hope that helps! 😊
@@OdileMonodTheMonodist Thanks a lot for recommendation, Odile 👍
I'm very interested in the Hyobidam Fermented Cream, but I'm wondering if it's suitable for those without dry skin. I have normal skin, and I generally prefer light, water gel moisturizers even in winter. I'm currently using the Donginbi Red Ginseng Moisture & Firming Emulsion, and it's working perfectly as my final step at night. I wouldn't want to add a much richer product to my routine.
So I'm a little conflicted. I'm greatly enjoying some of your Hanbang recommendations, but I'm wondering if you have any insight on the experiences of those who have mature skin that's also normal/oily skin.
I'm also very curious about the "for Men" product lines all of these brands seem to have. Are they equivalent quality? Because the overall esthetic and the fragrance descriptions appeal to me a lot more.
Thank you for all your excellent content! Happy Holidays
Sooryehan has a lighter version of their Hyobidam line designed for oily and combination skin, it’s called Hyobidam Water Spring. Same main ingredients and technology, just lighter formulas. The cream in particular is especially popular, it’s one of their top 3 bestsellers along with the standard Hyobidam Fermented Cream and their Ginseng essence. From what you describe, you might like the consistency of that cream because it's really fresh and gel-like.
Regarding the men skincare lines, they are indeed less oily than the standard lines since men tend to have oilier skin than women. I haven't personally tried Sooryehan's men line but my spouse uses the men lines from Sulwhasoo and Whoo and really likes them because they're nourishing without being heavy/greasy.
Can you please talk about anti aging foods or diet. Please.
a BIG thanks for this mini series ! I am very interested in TKM and skincare... Personnally, I have been very surprised by Geum sul serum, containing fermented ginseng ! I'd like to know more about other reasonable priced lines
Your videos are very interesting
Thank you! I will do a dedicated video covering the differences between Missha's Hanbang lines in 2022 😎
@@OdileMonodTheMonodist yes please do because I have no idea about differences between all those different lines
They relaunched their entire Hanbang range in March, I bought all the serums from the different lines and I'm currently testing them! Unfortunately these types of products that work mostly on skin resilience take a little more time than usual to test properly but I'm hoping to be done in September to produce a guide on the different lines in October / November.
Thank you, it was very informative. How would you rate Beauty of Josen skincare?
Beauty of Joseon falls in the category of Hanbang-inspired brands (I talked about the difference between Traditional Hanbang and Hanbang-inspired products in part 1) since they use traditional ingredients formulated in a modern way.

Wow that’s so informative
Is the reformulation of the missha eye cream the same? Or has it changed?
Hi Odile, May I know with all these hanbang anti aging skin care line, can they replace the benefits of a retinol cream/serum? I’m trying to choose wether I should embark on hanbang or use retinol instead.
The two approaches are not necessarily mutually exclusive! A few followers actually told me they like to combine Hanbang skincare and retinoids. Since Hanbang skincare works mainly on skin resilience, it can help you contrast the downsides of retinoids and reduce potential irritation/flaking. I don't tolerate strong retinoids so I generally prefer the Hanbang approach and occasionally add a mild retinoid to the mix, but you can absolutely combine the two!
Hello I want to buy the set of Gongjinhyang i have 25 years its a good idea ?
Wish you a Merry Christmas. May I know if LG has manufacturing facilities in Vietnam? I have been seeing a lot of LG skincare products on our local online platform coming from Vietnam and I'd like to know if they are authentic.
They do have facilites in Vietnam indeed, but I'm not sure which products are produced locally. I know for sure they make most Physiogel products in Vietnam because even the ones sold in Korea are labelled as "made in Vietnam". For other brands I'm not so sure sorry 😔
Could you make a video about your favourite anti ageing creams from History of Whoo? Also, you talked about Isa Knox before, could you make a video about their products too, pls?
Both videos are on their way 😎
@@OdileMonodTheMonodist Thank you! Love your channel btw. You explain all the information so well.
@@OdileMonodTheMonodist have you done the video about your favorite anti aging creams from History of Whoo? I can’t see it on your channel. It's so difficult to decide on my own so I definitely need your valued opinion on this. I'm using tretinoin every night, so the cream I choose must play nice with it and accommodate it 😅
No, in the end I opted for an overall brand guide where I explain the different features of their lines and recommend one product (cream or else) for each line. If you look up "odile history of whoo" it should be the first result. If there is enough interest, I can do a comparison video on all the different creams from Whoo 😎 every time I talk about their products, I get comments saying "I wish you would stop recommending expensive products all the time" etc so to be honest I feel a little pressure and I'm trying to space out these videos more to keep everyone happy.
@@OdileMonodTheMonodist oh I saw that video, twice 😂😂 Already put those products on my to buy list and I'm going to use the code you provided for Yesstyle 😄 It would be very lovely if you could do a comparison for the moisturizers someday. In the meantime, I'll try the The History of Whoo - Gongjinhyang Intensive Nutritive Cream you recommend, and see if I like that 😊 I have been binge watching your videos for days now, some of them 2-3 times, lol, and I saved them in my playlist for future refference. Thank you for all your hard work! ❤️
Hello Odile! What do you make of the Ginseng products from Beauty of Joseon?!
I remember that she covered her thoughts on this brand in one of her older videos on antiaging skincare. It goes in depth on ginseng quality in various formulas.
Beauty of Joseon falls in the category of Hanbang-inspired brands since they use traditional ingredients formulated in a modern way. I don't mind their products per se, but I do find their marketing choices to be quite questionable to be completely honest. In my video on Korean Ginseng I raised the issue that they were making anti-aging claims without sharing details on which variety of ginseng they were using (long story short: not all of them have anti-aging properties) and six months after that video they got fined for making unauthorised marketing claims like I suspected ( I talked about it here twitter.com/odilemonod/status/1347485680826425351?t=ydIfS0CWmx-H8ZMnVUjigw&s=19). It would have been fine if they just promoted their serum an anti-oxidant product, but I'm not too fond of companies making regulated claims without knowing what they're doing 🤷♀️
@@OdileMonodTheMonodist oh thank you for clarifying, I'll be sure to watch the video you mentioned. It's so unfortunate that BoJ has gone that route as I've actually enjoyed their ginseng products
I cry over the fact that none of them are vegan 😭, also, the Sooryehan brand has no link, I found it on Amazon but i don't know how reliable that can be
Would you consider some of the products from Pyunkang Yul to be hanbang?
They fall in the category of Hanbang-inspired brands.
I talked about the difference between Traditional Hanbang brands and Hanbang-inspired brands in part 1 of this series, basically Hanbang-inspired brands use some ingredients from Traditional Korean Medicine but they follow modern formulation techniques without altering the original properties of the raw materials, an approach that is closer to Western herbalism rather than Hanbang.
The formulation principle and processing techniques used in Traditional Hanbang are known to alter the properties and effects of the original ingredients in a way to target a specific condition (the most notable example is certainly ginseng that has different properties and biochemical characteristics depending on how it’s processed).
As mentioned in part 1, there are many Hanbang remedies made of the exact same ingredients but formulated in different ways (and consecutively, ratios) and this affects the final use of a formula. These particular preparation methods are what sets apart Traditional Korean Medicine from Western herbalism so when a brand doesn't follow them, they can classify at most as "Hanbang-inspired".
This is also why the Korean cosmetic advertising guidelines that I covered in the article on my website, make the distinction between cosmetics based on traditional remedies (as in, blends) and cosmetics that simply use traditional ingredients.
Some video on hanbang mention House of Joseon, are they qualified hanbang or just using the same concept?
Sorry I saw you already answered
does all of the history of whoo product contain wild ginseng? I am talking about Bichup Self-Generating Anti-Aging Concentrate as well as Cheongidan and Cheonyuldan lines
Yup! Plus, their top premium lines (Hwanyu, Royal Privilege) contain especially rare varieties of wild ginseng.
@@OdileMonodTheMonodist thank you so much, I am 39 and looking for something to firm the skin and combat the signs of aging. The history of whoo is not a cheap brand so I'm trying to spend my money wisely to get the results. But it's not that easy to find information online about their products.Would you consider making a video (or post) on this brand, getting bit more into details about their products and who are they for or what age/problem group? It would be so much helpful. And thank you for everything you posted by now. You are doing great job and it is so informative. I really appreciate it
Why has the Missha Geum Sul Vitalizing Eye Cream being taking off of every website ? I love this eye cream and can not find it anywhere.
Missha relaunched their Hanbang lines under a separate brand called Chogongjin. I've been testing all their new products and a dedicated video will be up in autumn 😊
@@OdileMonodTheMonodist what is the video name called?
Hello dear , I would like to start the business with The First Whoo … but on wholesale bases … directly with manufactory . How can I contact them ? can you help ? Thnx a lot in advance .
thank you.
What do you think about the geum sul night cream? is it good as well?
Hello. I have the night cream on right now. I've been using it on and off this year. I do really like it, but I can only use it in the cooler months. It melts off my face in warmer temps, so I could never wear it in the daytime either, I have normal to dry skin. Its a beautiful texture, and I must say, my skin looks great the next day. Odile has convinced me to try the eye cream. Do some research, and see if you'd like to try it. Merry Christmas.
@@joannewells Thank you!
Yes! I only featured one product per brand otherwise this video would have been 45 minute long 😅 I will make a dedicated video on Missha's Hanbang lines in 2022 where I will cover more products, but long story short yes I do really like that night cream! It's extremely rich and noushing and makes skin baby soft the morning after. Overall my favourite Hanbang lines by Missha are Geum Sul and Chogongjin.
@@OdileMonodTheMonodist looking forward this video !
The automatic English subtitles are wrong.
Thanks for the heads up! I replaced them with the correct file.
Can these products be used by someone with thin skin with Rosacea?
Unless you're sensitive to fragrance (it's a trigger for some people with Rosacea, but not for everyone), yes absolutely. The positive thing about these brands is that they make really rich products that help support thin skin with a weakened skin barrier function. Some brands like Yehwadam, Sooryehan and Missha also have lines that can help you soothe redness associated with rosacea.
Yehwadam is a skincare line from The Face Shop? I'M so so confused😳
The face shop is owned by LG if I’m not mistaken. So you could say that they’re related.
Yehwadam used to be a sub-brand of The Face Shop (which is also owned by LG), around 2/3 ago LG decided to make it a separate brand along with all the TFS sub-brands like Dr.Belmeur, fmgt etc so on some websites you might find it still listed under The Face Shop.
@@OdileMonodTheMonodist Yes , I found it on Yesstyle and it listed as a The Face Shop. Thank you so much😊
Sadly most Han bang skin care are very difficult to find outside Korea, except for Misha, they also have yei Hyun line, what do you think about it ? Is it good ?
Overall I do like Missha's Hanbang lines, I just featured one representative product per brand otherwise this video would have been 45 minutes long 😅. Missha's Yei Hyun line is the line I used the least because it's designed as a preventive anti-aging line for younger people, I find the products in that line to be too lightweight for me (even when I was in my 20s!) but I guess it you're young and you have normal / combo skin you might enjoy it more than I did.
@@OdileMonodTheMonodist I am interesting in getting a line for myself (22 yrs old) and one for my mom (36 yrs old). Which do you recommend for our age groups? My mom needs some intensive anti-aging wrinkle fine line removing stuff and I have zero idea about it. Retinol doesn't seem to give her the results she wants either. I've been getting a lot of blackheads when I never used to have any.
