Description
This serum was created to help soothe skin irritated by UV rays and other external factors.
We selected green tea, an iconic antioxidant, and mugwort, an herb that helps soothe skin, as the base ingredients. We wanted to maximize the skin protection benefits through panthenol as a way to create the greatest synergy between these ingredients. Green tea and mugwort provide moisture and soothe the skin, while panthenol acts as a moisture barrier to protect the skin from becoming irritated.
Renewal : Enhanced soothing and moisturization effects
30% mugwort extract was added to enhance Calming Serumโs soothing effect.
In addition, the amount of panthenol, which protects the skin from external stimuli, has been increased from 2% to 5% for enhanced moisturization and moisture barrier care.
It has been revitalized as a formula that further enhances the moisturizing and soothing effects of the original version.
Green tea 50%
'Donguibogan', a traditional medical record in Joseon, records that greean tea keeps the head and eyes clear, and refreshes the energy. EGCG, which is main component of green tea leaf, helps soothe skin damaged by UV rays.
Mugwort 30%
Mugwort has been a very important ingredient throughout the history of oriental medicine. It has a warm nature, so when consumed as tea or food, it facilitates metabolism. As a skin care ingredient, mugwort provides moisture and helps to soothe skin.
Panthenol (Vitamin B5) 5%
As a well-known moisturizing ingredient, Panthenol is converted into vitamin B5 when absorbed into the skin. It binds strongly to moisture and prevents moisture from escaping, effectively keeping the skin hydrated
How to Use
Apply 2-3 drops of serum onto the skin and pat gently to help absorption.

Getting started
Patch test first โ dab a little on your inner forearm or behind the ear and leave it a day before using it on your face. Introduce one new product at a time, a week or two apart, so you can tell what your skin is responding to. If anything stings, itches, or turns red, stop using it.
Where it goes in your routine
K-beauty layers thin to thick: cleanser โ toner โ essence, serum, or ampoule โ moisturizer, and sunscreen last every morning. Let each layer settle for a moment before the next one โ no need to wait for it to dry completely.
New to this? Our 4-product starter routine walks through the whole thing.
What not to layer at once
Exfoliating acids (AHA/BHA), vitamin C, and retinal are best kept apart โ alternate them across mornings and evenings, or across days, rather than stacking them in one sitting. See the layering map for what pairs safely with what.
Storing your products
- Keep everything in a cool, dry spot out of direct sunlight โ a shelf away from the shower steam beats the windowsill or the car.
- Close caps and droppers tightly. Vitamin C keeps its potency longest sealed and away from heat.
- Water-light textures like essences and ampoules are best finished within their open-jar period.
- No need to refrigerate โ but a sheet mask chilled for ten minutes is a nice touch in summer.
Reading the date on Korean packaging
Korean cosmetics print dates as year-month-day (for example, 2027.03.15), with two common markings:
- ๊น์ง (kkaji) or EXP โ use by this date.
- ์ ์กฐ (jejo) โ the date it was made, not the expiry.
The open-jar symbol (12M, 6Mโฆ) tells you how many months the product stays fresh once opened. Unsure about a marking on your bottle? Send us a photo and we'll read it for you.
A note on ingredients
Some of K-beauty's most-loved ingredients โ snail mucin, propolis, honey โ are animal-derived, so check the ingredient list on the product page if a fully vegan formula matters to you. Curious what snail mucin actually does? We wrote about it honestly here.
