  • How to use The History of Whoo Gongjinhyang Basic 2 Pcs Special Set

    1. Cleanse (not included, but essential first step): Begin with a thoroughly cleansed face. After washing your face with your preferred cleanser, gently pat your skin dry.
    2. Apply In Yang Balancer (Toner): Dispense an appropriate amount of the balancer onto your palm or a cotton pad. Gently pat or sweep it over your entire face and neck. This step hydrates, balances the skin's pH, and prepares it to better absorb subsequent products.
    3. Apply In Yang Lotion (Emulsion): After the balancer has fully absorbed (usually within 30 seconds to a minute), pump 1-2 times to dispense the emulsion. Gently spread this light, milky moisturizer evenly across your face and neck. Emulsion provides essential hydration and helps to create a comfortable, non-sticky base.
    4. Follow with Cream (optional, but recommended for complete routine): If you desire deeper hydration or are targeting specific concerns (like anti-aging), follow the emulsion with a cream from the Gongjinhyang line (e.g., Qi & Jin Cream). This set provides the essential foundation.
    5. Repeat Day and Night: These two steps form a foundational hydration routine suitable for both your morning and evening skincare regimens. In the morning, always conclude with a high SPF sunscreen after the emulsion (or cream, if used).

    Most common questions about The History of Whoo Gongjinhyang Basic 2 Pcs Special Set

    What is "Gongjinhyang" and its main benefits?
    "Gongjinhyang" refers to the core line of The History of Whoo, inspired by traditional Korean royal palace remedies. It's designed to balance the skin's energy ("Qi" and "Jin"), provide fundamental hydration, promote elasticity, and offer anti-aging benefits using precious Hanbang ingredients like Gongjinbidan (a blend of deer antler, angelica root, cornus fruit, and more) to restore a youthful, healthy complexion.

    Is this 2-piece set suitable for all skin types?
    Yes, the Gongjinhyang Basic line is formulated to be suitable for most skin types, particularly normal, combination, and slightly dry skin seeking fundamental hydration and balance. Its elegant textures provide sufficient moisture without feeling heavy, making it a great daily staple.

    How does "Hanbang" skincare differ from Western skincare?
    Hanbang skincare, prevalent in Korea, is deeply rooted in traditional Korean herbal medicine principles. It focuses on holistic balance, using complex formulations of natural herbal ingredients (like ginseng, reishi mushroom, goji berries) to address skin concerns by promoting internal harmony and vitality, rather than just targeting symptoms. This often results in rich, unique textures and scents.

    Can men use this basic set?
    While The History of Whoo has a dedicated men's line (Gongjinhyang Kun), this basic set can certainly be used by men as well, especially if they are looking for gentle hydration and balancing properties from a luxurious Hanbang brand. The scent is typically more universally appealing than strongly masculine fragrances.

    What is the correct order to use these two products?
    In a traditional Korean skincare routine, you would always apply the Balancer (Toner) first, immediately after cleansing. This preps your skin. Then, you would follow with the Lotion (Emulsion), which acts as a lighter moisturizer, providing the next layer of hydration and nourishment.
