How it works
Houttuynia Cordata Extract leads the ingredient panel on this toner. Houttuynia Cordata is heartleaf, and it is one of the two or three anchor plants of Korean calming skincare. Its extract carries quercitrin and other flavonoids and is used for the look of redness and blemish-prone skin. On this panel it sits alongside Centella Asiatica Extract, Glycyrrhiza Uralensis (Licorice) Root Extract and Hyacinthus Orientalis (Hyacinth) Extract. Centella Asiatica is the plant behind the whole cica category, sold as gotu kola or Madagascar centella. Its extract is the anchor of Korean formulas built for easily reddened skin, and its work is done by four triterpenes: asiaticoside, madecassoside, asiatic acid and madecassic acid.

Key actives
Houttuynia Cordata Extract
Houttuynia Cordata is heartleaf, and it is one of the two or three anchor plants of Korean calming skincare. Its extract carries quercitrin and other flavonoids and is used for the look of redness and blemish-prone skin.
Centella Asiatica Extract
Centella Asiatica is the plant behind the whole cica category, sold as gotu kola or Madagascar centella. Its extract is the anchor of Korean formulas built for easily reddened skin, and its work is done by four triterpenes: asiaticoside, madecassoside, asiatic acid and madecassic acid.
Glycyrrhiza Uralensis (Licorice) Root Extract
Licorice Root Extract carries glabridin and liquiritin. It is one of the classic plant ingredients used for the look of uneven tone and redness, and it appears in almost every brightening formula that avoids synthetic actives.
Hyacinthus Orientalis (Hyacinth) Extract
Hyacinth extract, used as a floral herbal extract. It is one of the less common botanicals to meet on a Korean label.
When in a routine should I use this toner?
Use it as the toner step, AM and PM, right after cleansing and before serum. Placing a toner out of order is the most common reason a Korean routine feels like it is not working, so keep this one at its own step rather than doubling it up with a product built for a different stage. Give it a few weeks at that placement before judging the result.
Is this the same formula sold in Korea, or a US version?
This is the exact Korean-market formula, not a US-shelf reformulation. Numbuzin sells a separate reformulation on some US shelves, and this listing is not that version. The Korean-market batch coding and packaging travel with it, which is the detail worth checking against the box on arrival.
Where does this formula come from?
It comes from the Korean-market catalog rather than a US-shelf reformulation, and the packaging carries the same Korean-market batch coding a shopper would find on the box in Korea. That sourcing is checked on this row before the page is written, not assumed from the product name. It is the detail worth checking against the box on arrival.
What does Centella Asiatica Extract do in this formula?
Centella Asiatica Extract is the cica extract Korean skincare built an entire calming category around, prized for a mild, even-tempered feel. Centella-led formulas are one of the most recognizable categories to come out of Korean skincare, built specifically around a calm, low-drama daily feel. It sits at its own position on this product's own ingredient list rather than being assumed from the product name.
What does Houttuynia Cordata Extract do in this formula?
Houttuynia Cordata is heartleaf, and it is one of the two or three anchor plants of Korean calming skincare. Its extract carries quercitrin and other flavonoids and is used for the look of redness and blemish-prone skin. It is named on this product's own ingredient panel.

How to use
- Apply it within a minute of cleansing so the surface is still wet and will take the water in.
- Pour a generous amount into damp palms and press it over the face and neck in two passes.
- Move on to serum and cream while the skin still feels tacky rather than waiting for it to dry.
- Do not wipe it on with a dry cotton pad, since the cotton takes a share of the dose and drags on skin that already flushes.
Worth knowing
- Patch test on the inner arm first if trying a new brand's formula for the first time.
- Stop use and check the ingredient list against any known sensitivities before continuing.
