⬥ The History of Whoo’s NEW “Gong Jin Hyang Firming” line

The History of Whoo’s NEW “Gong Jin Hyang Firming” line: a skin-firming and rebalancing solution.

It’s important to quickly address the factors contributing to a decline in skin elasticity and work towards restoring the skin’s natural elasticity balance.

Born from two decades of research into Gongjinbidan (공진비단, 供辰秘丹) and The History of Whoo’s proprietary Bio-Po Jae1 technology, Gong Jin Solution™ now offers even more powerful results. The ingredient works to promote skin balance by enhancing its natural elasticity.

[1] “Po Jae” (포제, 炮制) refers to the traditional techniques utilised in Korean Medicine for the preparation of herbs intended for medicinal use. These methods are designed to enhance or reduce specific properties of the herbs, tailoring them for particular therapeutic applications. (For further details, please consult the guide on Traditional Korean Medicine available on this website, specifically section 3.3, which covers “Herb preparation and processing methods”).

⬥ Point 1: 5% Gong Jin Solution™

⬥ Point 2: Gong Jin Solution™, the key ingredient to enhance skin elasticity

The History of Whoo’s “Gong Jin Hyang Firming Emulsion” enhances skin elasticity and firmness from within thanks to the inclusion of Gong Jin Solution™, an exclusive anti-aging ingredient specifically designed to improve skin elasticity. Gong Jin Solution™ was developed by isolating and blending Gongjinbidan (공진비단, 供辰秘丹) with three of its key components using The History of Whoo’s Active Tracking Technology.

⬥ Point 3: Active Tracking Technology

Active Tracking Technology is the signature technology of The History of Whoo’s “Gong Jin Hyang” line.

By leveraging the Hanbang Bio-Po Jae1 technology developed by the Whoo Oriental Medicine Skin Science Research Center, the brand effectively channels the skin-firming benefits of Gongjinbidan (공진비단, 供辰秘丹) to the skin. The technology combines Gongjinbidan (공진비단, 供辰秘丹) with factors that activate skin elasticity2, resulting in improved skin firmness.
