For over 2,000 years, Ginseng Root has been part of the traditional South Korean pharmacopeia. Erborian harnesses the powerful properties of the herb to fight the visible signs of ageing. Requiring lots of love and care, Ginseng takes 4-6 years to reach maturity before it can be harvested. After harvesting this prized root, it goes through a steam distillation process stabilising the many rich compounds.
Ginseng gathers so active ingredients that it takes nearly 15 years for the soil to be suitable again for suitable cultivation.
Red Ginseng is ideal for skincare formulations as it is so rich in moisturising and smoothing properties.
