Key actives
2Glycerin
Glycerin is The primary humectant carrying water into the surface. It appears at position 2 of 29 on YUNJAC's own manufacturer ingredient list for this formula, which is real evidence of what the formula is built around rather than a marketing label placed over it.
3Polyglycerin-3
Polyglycerin-3 is A humectant used with diglycerin to hold water at the surface. It appears at position 3 of 29 on YUNJAC's own manufacturer ingredient list for this formula, which is real evidence of what the formula is built around rather than a marketing label placed over it.
11Butylene Glycol
Butylene Glycol is A humectant and solvent carrying the formula's actives. It appears at position 12 of 29 on YUNJAC's own manufacturer ingredient list for this formula, which is real evidence of what the formula is built around rather than a marketing label placed over it.
14Adenosine
Adenosine is The wrinkle-care active recognized in Korea's own cosmetic functional-ingredient system. It appears at position 15 of 29 on YUNJAC's own manufacturer ingredient list for this formula, which is real evidence of what the formula is built around rather than a marketing label placed over it.

Where each key active sits on the declared ingredient list, by entry number. Position is proportion: the further forward, the larger its share.
Is the Renewing Oil With Whangchil Extract 20ml sold here YUNJAC's Korean-market formula?
Yes. What ships is YUNJAC's release for the Korean market: the formula and packaging sold in Korea, with the Korean-market barcode and batch code intact on the box rather than swapped for an export or US-retail label.
Where does the Renewing Oil With Whangchil Extract 20ml go in a routine?
It takes the last step of a routine, after essence or serum. Use it exactly the way you would any cream at that point in a routine. A cream in this format is built with a richer base than a lotion or serum, which is the format choice for sealing in the steps underneath, which is the reason this step order tends to hold across brands, not only for this one.
What does Adenosine do in this cream?
Adenosine is The wrinkle-care active recognized in Korea's own cosmetic functional-ingredient system. It appears at position 15 of 29 on YUNJAC's own manufacturer ingredient list for this formula, which is real evidence of what the formula is built around rather than a marketing label placed over it.
Does the Renewing Oil With Whangchil Extract 20ml contain fragrance?
No. Parfum and fragrance do not appear anywhere on the manufacturer's own ingredient list for this formula, which is one reason it reads as a shorter, calmer list than a heavily scented formula in the same category.
How does buying the Renewing Oil With Whangchil Extract 20ml here compare with a US retailer carrying the same name?
A US listing under the same product name can be a reformulated export version and rarely states which one it is selling. What we carry is the Korean-market YUNJAC release, identified by its intact Korean barcode and batch code on the box rather than a relabeled export carton, so the unit you get matches what is sold on shelf in Korea.

Ingredient list read from inkeedecoder.com on 10 September 2026.
23 of 28 explained
- Water (Aqua) solvent
- Water is the base almost every serum, toner and cream is built on. It dissolves the water-loving ingredients and sets how light the finished texture feels. On an INCI list it is usually first, which only means it is the largest single ingredient by weight.
- Glycerin humectant
- Glycerin is the most used humectant in skincare. It draws water into the outer layer of skin and holds it there, and it is one of the very few ingredients whose hydrating effect is settled science rather than marketing. Higher amounts feel tacky, which is why it is usually blended.
- Polyglycerin-3 humectant
- Polyglycerin-3 is a short chain of glycerin units used as a gentler, less sticky humectant. It also helps oils and water stay blended.
- Methyl Gluceth-20 humectant
- Methyl Gluceth-20 is a sugar-derived humectant. It holds water in the outer layer of skin and gives a smooth, cushioned slip that plain glycerin does not.
- Alcohol Denat solvent
- Alcohol Denat. is ethanol with a bitter additive that makes it undrinkable, which is a tax rule rather than a formulation choice. It behaves like alcohol: a fast-evaporating solvent that gives a weightless finish and can feel drying at higher levels.
- 1,2-Hexanediol humectant
- 1,2-Hexanediol is a glycol used for two reasons: it holds water like glycerin, and it makes a formula harder for microbes to live in, so less traditional preservative is needed. Korean formulas use it heavily for that second reason.
- PEG-8 humectant
- PEG-8 is a short polyethylene glycol chain. It holds water, keeps a formula fluid, and dissolves ingredients water alone cannot.
- PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil emulsifier
- PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil is the most used solubiliser in clear toners and micellar waters. It holds small amounts of oil and fragrance in solution without turning the formula cloudy.
- Caprylyl Glycol preservative booster
- Caprylyl Glycol is a glycol that conditions skin and, more importantly, strengthens a preservative system so less of the traditional preservative is needed. It appears in most modern formulas built without parabens.
- Glyceryl Polyacrylate film former
- An acrylate polymer carrying glycerin groups, so it holds water as well as forming a film. It is used to give a gel body and a moist, flexible finish.
- Butylene Glycol humectant
- Butylene Glycol is a small glycol that does two jobs at once: it holds water in the top layer of skin and it dissolves plant extracts and actives that plain water cannot. It also thins a formula, which is why watery Korean essences lean on it.
- Xanthan Gum thickener
- Xanthan Gum is a polysaccharide made by fermenting sugar. It thickens a watery formula into a gel and holds the whole thing in suspension so nothing separates. Too much of it and a serum turns stringy, which is why it appears in fractions of a percent.
11 more explained
- Ethylhexylglycerin preservative booster
- Ethylhexylglycerin softens skin and boosts a preservative system, which is why it is nearly always sitting beside phenoxyethanol or 1,2-hexanediol. It also cuts down the odour bacteria produce, so it turns up in deodorising products.
- Adenosine active
- Adenosine is a nucleoside that Korea's own cosmetic authority recognises as a wrinkle-care functional ingredient, which is why it appears on so many Korean lists at a low level. It is used for the look of fine lines and is stable and well tolerated.
- Disodium EDTA chelator
- EDTA is a chelator: it locks up trace metal ions from water and packaging that would otherwise turn a formula cloudy, off-colour or rancid. It does nothing to skin and appears at a fraction of a percent.
- Angelica Gigas Root Extract plant extract
- Korean angelica root, a staple of Korean herbal medicine. Its extract carries coumarins and is used as a conditioning herbal extract.
- Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Extract plant extract
- Cocoa Extract carries polyphenols and a little caffeine. It is used as an antioxidant plant extract and gives a faint warm tint.
- Hydrogenated Lecithin emulsifier
- Hydrogenated Lecithin is lecithin with its unsaturated bonds filled in, which makes it far more stable. It emulsifies and is the standard shell for the liposomes that carry actives into the outer layer of skin.
- Cholesterol barrier lipid
- Cholesterol is the third of the three lipids the outer layer of skin is built from, with ceramides and fatty acids. Formulas that carry all three are following the ratio skin itself holds.
- Dextrin thickener
- Dextrin is a starch fragment used to thicken and to give a formula a light, powdery finish. It is also a common carrier for powdered extracts.
- Fragrance (Parfum) fragrance
- Fragrance, or Parfum, is a single declaration standing for a whole scent blend, which can be dozens of materials. Regulators allow it as a trade secret, so a list showing only this word does not say what the scent is made of. It is the most common trigger named by people with reactive skin.
- Hexyl Cinnamal fragrance component
- Hexyl Cinnamal is a jasmine-like aromatic. It is one of the 26 fragrance components EU labelling requires to be named individually.
- Limonene fragrance component
- Limonene is the citrus-peel aromatic. It appears here because EU labelling requires 26 fragrance components to be named individually rather than hidden inside "fragrance", and it is one of them.

How it works
Renewing Oil With Whangchil Extract 20ml is a cream built on Adenosine, the wrinkle-care active recognized in Korea's own cosmetic functional-ingredient system, named 15 of 29 entries on YUNJAC's own manufacturer INCI for this formula. Glycerin runs alongside it, the primary humectant carrying water into the surface, and the rest of the list rounds out a YUNJAC formula built for this format rather than a stripped-down version of it. It takes the last step of a routine, after essence or serum, and the cream format is the reason it behaves the way it does once it is on skin. A cream in this format is built with a richer base than a lotion or serum, which is the format choice for sealing in the steps underneath.
How to use
- Apply as the last step of a routine, warming a small amount between the fingers before pressing over face and neck.
Worth knowing
- Patch test on the inner arm first, as with any new step added to a routine.
- Discontinue if irritation develops and check the ingredient list against any known sensitivity.
