  • Adenosine closes out the back half of the list at position 38 of 48, a supporting rather than lead role.
  • Centella Asiatica Extract appears at position 12 of 48 on the ingredient list, ahead of most of the formula's supporting agents.
  • Ceramide NP appears at position 14 of 48 on the ingredient list, ahead of most of the formula's supporting agents.
  • Sodium Hyaluronate closes out the back half of the list at position 46 of 48, a supporting rather than lead role.

Key actives

NiacinamidePosition 6 of 48 ingredients on this row's own list

Niacinamide is one of the most established multi-tasking actives in Korean formulation, valued for supporting an even, calm-looking tone and a smoother surface texture with continued use.

AdenosinePosition 38 of 48 ingredients on this row's own list

Adenosine is a wrinkle-care ingredient standard across Korean cosmetics, commonly included to support a firmer, smoother-looking surface as part of a daily routine.

Centella Asiatica ExtractPosition 12 of 48 ingredients on this row's own list

Centella Asiatica Extract is the calming botanical behind the cica category in Korean skincare, traditionally included to support a soothed, less reactive-looking complexion.

Ceramide NPPosition 14 of 48 ingredients on this row's own list

Ceramide NP is one of the lipids that make up the skin's own barrier structure, and including it here is meant to support the look and feel of that barrier over time.

Sodium HyaluronatePosition 46 of 48 ingredients on this row's own list

Sodium Hyaluronate is a lower-molecular, water-soluble hyaluronic acid derivative that draws and holds moisture at the surface, supporting a plumper, more comfortable feel.

How to use

  1. Use it after your toner while the skin is still damp, so it spreads without dragging.
  2. Dispense a small amount, warm it briefly between your palms and press it over the face and neck.
  3. Follow with your serum, then your moisturiser, going from thinnest to thickest.
  4. Do not layer it over a moisturiser, since anything watery applied on top of an occlusive layer mostly sits there.

How it works

Missha is a mainstream Korean drugstore brand with one of the longest-running catalogs in Korean skincare, and CHOGONGJIN GEUMSUL JIN BOOSTING ESSENCE 90ml is formulated as an essence for the Korean market rather than a US-shelf reformulation. Niacinamide is one of the most established multi-tasking actives in Korean formulation, valued for supporting an even, calm-looking tone and a smoother surface texture with continued use. It sits at position 6 of 48 ingredients on this row's own list, ahead of most of the formula's supporting agents. Adenosine is a wrinkle-care ingredient standard across Korean cosmetics, commonly included to support a firmer, smoother-looking surface as part of a daily routine. Further down the list, Centella Asiatica Extract appears at position 12 of 48, adding a supporting layer rather than the lead role.

Worth knowing

  • Fragrance is on the ingredient list, so anyone avoiding added scent should check the list before buying.
  • Alcohol Denat is on the list, so very dry or reactive skin may want to patch test before working this into a full routine.

  • 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.
