## Key benefits

- Mugwort Calming Serum is Round Lab's serum, sourced for the Korean market rather than reformulated for US shelves.
- Carries Betaine, which is a sugar beet-derived humectant that helps this formula feel less stripping on contact.
- Carries Artemisia Vulgaris Extract, which is mugwort (Artemisia) extract, a calming botanical long used in Korean folk skincare and now a mainstay of soothing formulas.
- Carries Panthenol, which is provitamin B5, a humectant that helps a formula feel less tight after it dries down.
- Ships with the Korean-market barcode and batch code intact, the same box sold on Korean shelves rather than a US repack.
- Suited to shoppers targeting redness and easily-stressed skin.

## How it works

Round Lab Mugwort Calming Serum is built as a serum, so its texture and finish are designed around one specific place in a routine rather than several. The formula's own ingredient list carries Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5), Sodium Hyaluronate, Allantoin among its named ingredients, placed at a level consistent with a serum rather than a spot treatment. The texture is built for use after your toner or essence and before your moisturizer, the concentrated middle step of a routine, which is why it behaves differently on skin than a product meant for a different point in a routine. This is the Korean-market formula of the mugwort calming serum, the version sold on shelves in Korea rather than a formula reworked for a different market.

## How to use

1. Use the Mugwort Calming Serum after toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening.
2. Apply an appropriate amount on clean skin and gently pat to aid absorption.
3. Toner first so the surface is damp, then this, then about a minute before your moisturizer goes over the top.
4. Twice a day, every day. Do not stack it with a second serum of the same kind; two hydrating serums in one routine do the work of one.

## FAQ

### Is this the same formula sold in Korea, or a version made for the US market?

This is the Korean-market formula, the same one sold on shelves in Korea, not a separate version reformulated for US retail. The pack you open matches what a shopper in Seoul buys.

### Where does this step go in a routine?

It belongs after your toner or essence and before your moisturizer, the concentrated middle step of a routine. Placing it earlier or later than that changes how it feels going on and how well the steps after it absorb, so keeping it in that order is worth doing even on a simplified routine.

### Can I use this if my skin runs sensitive?

This serum is formulated with skin types like normal skin, dry skin in mind, but any new product is worth a patch test first if your skin reacts easily. A short patch test on the inside of your arm or behind an ear is worth doing with any new product before it goes on your face, and that goes for sensitive skin most of all.

### How long before I will know if this is right for my skin?

Give it a full week or two of consistent use before judging, since a single use rarely tells you much either way. Watch for how skin feels rather than for any specific number, and stop use if you notice ongoing irritation.
