All About Pyunkang Yul

Pyunkang Yul’s brand story

Pyunkang Yul has a straightforward brand story starting with Eastern medicine, which helped treat patients with skin troubles such as atopic dermatitis. After over 40 years of research and the creation of one of the largest oriental clinics in Korea, the brand developed a reputation for the treatment of such diseases. Then, Pyunkang Yul started developing home care cosmetics. That is how the brand started offering solutions to sensitive skin, acne, and atopic dermatitis through “simplicity.” The brand only relies on the necessary ingredients to help the skin rest and help the body “cure itself.”

Finally, as seen on its website and social media pages, Pyunkang Yul stays true to its “Clean” philosophy. Indeed, most products are completely colorless and fragrance-free. This drives the message of simplicity through the imagery of the brand.

Pyunkang Yul’s Top Ingredients

When the experts at Pyunkang Clinic started developing skincare, their goal was to “create products that help the skin’s self-regeneration.” As a result, we can find the following key ingredients among the varied lines that the Korean beauty brand Pyunkang Yul has to offer:

• Astragalus Membranaceus Root: this medicinal herb that the Chinese commonly used in the practice of traditional medicine has helped treat various conditions for over 2000 years;
• Coptis Chinensis Root: one of the 50 fundamental herbs in traditional Chinese medicine, it is proven to carry anti‐inflammatory and anti‐bacterial properties, even helping with cardiovascular problems;
• Lonicera Japonica Flower: in traditional medicine, the leaves and flowers are dried and used to treat fever, inflammation, and skin infections;
• Mug Bean extract: packed with anti-inflammatory properties and vitamin A and C, it helps with dullness and improves the overall skin texture while protecting it from UV rays;
• Fermented Black Tea: also known as kombucha, fermented black tea can reduce skin inflammation, resulting in improved skin elasticity.
