How it works
The Mugwort Serum is a 30ml serum, used after toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening. The plant extract it is built around is Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extract, named first on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Niacinamide, Allantoin and Tocopherol, so the plant extract is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extract stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the serum format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the serum I'm From sells in Korea, Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extract and all.

Key actives
Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extractplant extract
Artemisia Princeps is Korean mugwort, one of the country's oldest skincare and bathing plants. Its leaf extract is used for the look of reddened, reactive skin, and it is the ingredient behind the mugwort category. It is the entry this serum is named after, and the list carries it.
Niacinamideactive
Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. It is named seventh on this serum's list, alongside Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extract.
Allantoinactive
Allantoin is a comfrey-derived compound used to condition skin and soften the outer layer so it feels smoother. It is one of the standard additions to a formula built for easily irritated skin. The panel names it twenty-eighth on this serum's list, beside Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extract.
Tocopherolantioxidant
Tocopherol is vitamin E. It is an oil-soluble antioxidant that protects the oils in a formula from going rancid and works on skin as an emollient, and it is regularly paired with vitamin C because each keeps the other going for longer. The panel names it thirty-sixth on this serum's list, beside Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extract.
Ceramide NPbarrier lipid
Ceramide NP is the most used cosmetic ceramide, the same class of lipid that makes up roughly half the mortar between cells in the outer layer of skin. Added to a cream it slots into that structure, which is why ceramide formulas feel less leaky rather than merely greasy. The panel names it thirty-second on this serum's list, beside Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extract.
Where does this serum go in my routine?
After toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening. Anything thinner than a serum goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extract and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market serum or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extract and all. We match this serum to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.
What else is on the list besides Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extract?
Niacinamide, Allantoin and Tocopherol. The order they are printed in on this serum's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extract sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Ceramide NP, Beta-Glucan and Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract.

How to use
- Tone first, then apply on damp skin so three drops still cover the whole face.
- Press it in with flat fingertips, working outward from the centre of the face.
- Follow with a light moisturiser once it has settled for about a minute.
- Do not add a strong retinoid on the same night while you are still introducing this, since two changes at once hide which one your skin reacted to.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this serum on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extract on the list.
- Introduce this serum on its own for the first week, so anything your skin does is traceable to the Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extract rather than to three changes at once.

Additionally, it has been shown to improve dry skin in those with atopic dermatitis. It also can be good for those with acne-prone skin because of the antibacterial and anti-inflammatory benefits.
Marisa K. Garshick, MDDermatologist, The Zoe Report Allantoin can tone down the dryness of the individual cells. It increases the water content of the skin, which means it helps to hydrate and moisturize.

Niacinamide helps reduce the appearance of pores in a few ways. By strengthening the skin barrier and improving elasticity, pores appear less noticeable and more even.
