Key actives
3Glycerin
Glycerin is The primary humectant carrying water into the surface. It appears at position 3 of 34 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.
7Panthenol
Panthenol is A barrier-support humectant that also settles visible irritation. It appears at position 7 of 34 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.
8Butylene Glycol
Butylene Glycol is A humectant and solvent carrying the formula's actives. It appears at position 8 of 34 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.
19Sodium Hyaluronate
Sodium Hyaluronate is A hyaluronic form working at the surface. It appears at position 20 of 34 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 Whole Plant Effect Essential Toner 150ml 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 Whole Plant Effect Essential Toner 150ml go in a routine?
It takes the first step after cleansing. That placement follows from what a toner is, not from anything unusual about this specific unit. A toner in this format is a thin liquid meant to sit on skin briefly and prep it for the layers that follow, not a step meant to linger, so moving it earlier or later in a routine works against the format rather than with it.
What does Panthenol do in this toner?
Panthenol is A barrier-support humectant that also settles visible irritation. It appears at position 7 of 34 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 Whole Plant Effect Essential Toner 150ml 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 Whole Plant Effect Essential Toner 150ml 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 incidecoder.com on 10 September 2026.
30 of 33 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.
- Propanediol humectant
- Propanediol is a plant-derived glycol used in place of propylene glycol. It hydrates, carries actives into solution, and gives a lighter, less sticky slip than glycerin at the same strength.
- 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.
- Dipropylene Glycol humectant
- Dipropylene Glycol is a glycol used as a solvent and a light humectant. Its main job is keeping the rest of the formula dissolved and the texture fluid rather than adding hydration of its own.
- Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract plant extract
- Aloe Leaf Extract is mostly water with polysaccharides, amino acids and mild plant acids. It hydrates and leaves a light, cooling film, which is why it is the default after-sun ingredient.
- Trehalose humectant
- Trehalose is a sugar that some desert plants use to survive drying out. In skincare it is a humectant that holds water in the outer layer and helps a formula feel comfortable rather than tight.
- Panthenol humectant
- Panthenol is pro-vitamin B5: skin converts it to pantothenic acid. It is a humectant that holds water and leaves skin feeling soft and less tight, and it is one of the ingredients formulators reach for when a formula also contains something harsh.
- 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.
- Bis-PEG-18 Methyl Ether Dimethyl Silane silicone
- A water-soluble silicone used for a light, silky slip without an oily film. It also helps other ingredients spread evenly.
- 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.
- 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-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil emulsifier
- PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil is a castor-oil-derived solubiliser. It is what keeps fragrance and oil-soluble ingredients dissolved in a watery formula so it stays clear.
18 more explained
- Sodium Citrate pH adjuster
- Sodium Citrate is the salt of citric acid, used as a buffer: it holds a formula at a steady pH rather than pushing it in one direction. It is also a mild chelator.
- 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.
- Octyldodeceth-16 emulsifier
- An ethoxylated branched fatty alcohol. It emulsifies and also gives a formula a soft, cushioned slip.
- 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.
- 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.
- Sodium Hyaluronate humectant
- Sodium Hyaluronate is the salt of hyaluronic acid, and it is what most products labelled hyaluronic actually contain. The salt dissolves more readily and the molecule is smaller, so it sits in the outer layer of skin rather than only on top of it.
- Citric Acid pH adjuster
- Citric Acid is used in tiny amounts to bring a formula to the pH its actives need, not as an exfoliant at that level. It is an AHA, so at much higher concentrations it can also exfoliate.
- 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.
- 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.
- BHT antioxidant
- BHT is a synthetic antioxidant used in traces to stop the oils in a formula going rancid. It protects the product, not the skin.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Citronellol fragrance component
- Citronellol is a rose-geranium aromatic and one of the 26 fragrance components EU labelling names individually.
- Geraniol fragrance component
- Geraniol is a rose-scented aromatic found in geranium and citronella oils. It is one of the 26 declarable fragrance components.
- Linalool fragrance component
- Linalool is a floral aromatic found in lavender, bergamot and coriander. It is one of the 26 fragrance components EU labelling requires to be declared by name.

How it works
Whole Plant Effect Essential Toner 150ml is a toner built on Panthenol, a barrier-support humectant that also settles visible irritation, named 7 of 34 entries on YUNJAC's own manufacturer INCI for this formula. Sodium Hyaluronate runs alongside it, a hyaluronic form working at 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 first step after cleansing, and the toner format is the reason it behaves the way it does once it is on skin. A toner in this format is a thin liquid meant to sit on skin briefly and prep it for the layers that follow, not a step meant to linger.
How to use
- Apply to clean skin with a cotton pad or the palms immediately after cleansing.
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.
