Description
Our skin goes through a turn-over process of repeating cell regeneration and exfoliation every 28 days. During this process, if the dead skin cells on the skinโs surface clog the pores, inflammation may occur in the pores causing a darkening of the skin tone by preventing new cell regeneration.
We created a light and mild toner that can wipe away dead skin cells and sebum in the pores and on the surface of the skin that can remain after cleansing.
The main ingredient is plum, which has been used as an herbal medicine for a long time. As a cosmetic ingredient, plum helps to remove dead skin cells and care for skin texture. It creates wonderful synergy with mung bean extract, a skin soothing ingredient, and the chemical exfoliants AHA and BHA.
Daily Exfoliating Toner
Green Plum Toner is ideal for use in the morning and evening during the first step of skin care to wipe away residual waste and smooth out the skin texture. After sufficiently moistening a cotton pad with toner, gently wipe the skin from the inside to the outside. It not only cleans up waste but also enhances the skin condition to facilitate better absorption of follow-up skin care products.
Green plum water 25% + Mung bean extract 2%
Donguibogam, an herbal medicine book from the Joseon Dynasty, states that plums lower the temperature, ease the mind, and help stop thirst and diarrhea. In Korean history, plum and mung bean were used as medicines to treat stomachaches or rid the body of toxins.
Plum water and mung bean extract as skin care ingredients help to smooth out skin texture and provide moisture.
AHA + BHA
With a mixture of 2% glycolic acid and 0.5% salicylic acid, you can use it every morning and evening to remove dead skin cells without irritating your skin. It is made with a mild formula that combines a low concentration of chemical exfoliants and plant extracts rather than attempting to create powerful effects via overly high concentrations of AHA and BHA since cosmetics are not categorized as drugs. This is because we believe that it is important to constantly monitor and care for the condition of the skin without causing irritation.
How to use
After cleansing in the morning and evening, moisten a cotton pad and gently wipe the skin from the inside to the outside. Or, you place a sufficient amount on the palm of your hand and dab lightly to absorb.

To use this product, start by cleansing your skin thoroughly in the morning and evening. Once your skin is clean, you have two options for applying the product. First, you can moisten a cotton pad with the product and gently wipe it across your skin, starting from the inside and moving outwards. Alternatively, you can apply a sufficient amount of the product onto the palm of your hand and dab it lightly onto your skin until it is fully absorbed. Both application methods can help to ensure that the product is evenly distributed across your skin for maximum effectiveness.

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.
