The most ancient Korean anti-aging secret: discover the power of Red Ginseng (feat. Donginbi)

[@Pika-ck7ww]

Sulwhasoo is also a luxury red ginseng skincare brand that's more widely known. I used their products (cleanser, first serum, essential water and ginseng renewing cream), I absolutely love every single one of them! Not only the results are incredible, but the experience, the feel and the finish are also just fabulous. I tested Donginbi products on my hand, and I liked how they felt on my hand, but I never used them on my face. Whats the difference between Sulwhasoo and Donginbi? and which one do you think is better?

History of whoo is the best

[@DoctorAnne]

I love the packaging of the brand (and of course the history behind the ingredient).

[@OdileMonodTheMonodist]

Yes, I love it when a premium brand puts some effort into the sensorial aspect of their products as well as in their formulas!

[@DoctorAnne]

@@OdileMonodTheMonodist Definitely important too.

[@k.huelle]

I was so excited for this video, loved it! I really appreciate hearing the breakdown of all the lines. And a huge discount, thank you! 🤩🤩🤩

[@OdileMonodTheMonodist]

😎 very happy to hear it didn't disappoint. I wanted to create a helpful video for people looking for an introduction to the brand, considering how little information is available in English. Plus, I had most of their products already so I didn't have to rely on the sponsorships to test the products and give you my thoughts about it, which was ideal. But the promo of course was a huge plus 😁😁😁😁

[@SandraJohanne]

I wish that they would have some more fragrance free products. I've tried a few (the ones available in the essential kit) but the perfume (probably) in the products triggered some really bad eczema 😬 Also to be honest, even if I wasn't sensitive to the perfume I think the smell is very "manly" and VERY strong. But I like their 1899 single essence!

[@OdileMonodTheMonodist]

I totally get it, I personally like it but the fragrance is not for everyone and it's definitely not subtle 😁

[@TsubataLately]

I'm not sensitive to fragrance, but I find it a bit overpowering, especially in the Daily Defense Essence EX. The 1899 Single Essence is divine.

[@mayarapatriciaribeirodasil2220]

Last month I bought my first luxury product recommended by you, The History of Whoo. Now I don't know which Donginbi product should I Choose next!

[@OdileMonodTheMonodist]

Thank you for the trust 🙏🙏 I hope you'll enjoy the brand as much as I do!

[@elsahuezo2227]

Thank you Odile, I was waiting for this video. Donginbi I loved, keep your excellent work. Sending you 🙏👍

[@OdileMonodTheMonodist]

😃 pleasure is all mine! Thank you for the kind comment!

[@loudeillunzaga4476]

I tried ginseng in a sheet mask form from the face shop. It was really good and it brightens my face. It smells very rooty and woody too..

[@OdileMonodTheMonodist]

I absolutely love the smell of ginseng, it's not for everyone but I have a thing for woody/earthy fragrances 😍

[@kriella30]

Your video was mentioned by Dr dray so I immediately click the link And thank God

[@monstrevanilla5846]

Thanks for your recommendation I purchased the history of jinyul with red jinseng I can't wait to start using it

[@OdileMonodTheMonodist]

I had a similar experience myself with Whoo when I was younger and that made me want to dig into the nature of these products 🤓 Thank you so much for the lovely comment, it's a pleasure knowing there's an audience for in-depth informative content on Korean beauty.

[@AlondraMiroslava]

Hi odile! I just found out your chanel and i have been on a marathon watching all your videos, for sure you are amazing! I will recommend your chanel on my skincare groups because seriously i love your content! Oh an also my wallet its kinda angry at you because now i have so many stuff in my wishlist 🤭 but I'm hapoy so its fine! ✨

[@OdileMonodTheMonodist]

Thank you so much 🙏🙏

[@casspeter6013]

Really wanted to try Donginbi but the price online is quite expensive for me. Hope can travel to Korea in the future to buy it. When my parents went to Korea in 2016, the Cheong Kwan Jang products were cheaper to buy in Korea compared with buying online. Sadly they didn't buy Donginbi since my parents are not interested in skincare

[@mmfcfa1]

I purchased a travel sized set of the power repair line which typically lasts a week or so depending on use to see if my skin tolerated it. Reasonably priced and found that my skin absolutely loves it.

[@OdileMonodTheMonodist]

Yes duty-free shops always offer great deals on premium Korean skincare brands, I hope everyone can go back to travelling soon 😭

[@prosaicprosaicix8265]

I discovered Donginbi & bought their 1899 essence & daily defence essence, in large part due to you. The 1899 is a keeper & I already repurchased! The signature oil is on my wish-list! The discounts are very generous. It's a pity it's only available for US customers. (They don't deliver to my country & even if they did, I'd end up paying exorbitant shipping.) I buy from koreadepart. I enjoyed this video, thank you.

[@OdileMonodTheMonodist]

My pleasure! I was aware that the promos wouldn't be available for all countries so I tried to put together an informative video that could be helpful for everyone looking for an introduction to the brand, regardless of the promo. Thank you for your kind words and the trust!

[@TsubataLately]

Thank you for mentioning Koreadepart! It seems like a good retailer. I'll be making a purchase soon!

[@moskvagal]

Hi Odile, thank you so much for this vlog and all your vlogs, you have done so much research, and everything is in detail. Thank you and keep up the good work!! Also thanks for the Donginbi special offers for subbies, i will get to try it for the first time!! Please keep vlogging about anti-aging Kbeauty, cos noone else is doing it!! 🤩🤩🤩

[@CharlotteV3D]

Thank you so much for this video! During my research for a new face oil I fell on the Donginbi 1899 signature oil, and it was love at first sight. But seeing the price I wanted to know first what was your thoughts on it and I fell on your video, and I think I will go for it! That would be my first dip into Hanbang skincare! Thank you for this beautiful-soothing video once again. You are a true gem!

[@sunshine9993]

I needed a new face oil, I’m trading my dear Zelens d drops to buy this 1899 oil. I’m super excited to try it. Thanks for the wonderful discount 💜

[@OdileMonodTheMonodist]

Thank you so much for the support! I hope the oil will live up to expectations, it's truly one of my favourite products 😍

[@meredithhassig9589]

Odile, I'm really enjoying your videos! Very interested in trying this brand as well, although I'm very partial to The History of Whoo and have been for several years. I have to ask, what is your opinion of Whoo's Wild Ginseng Facial Oil both as a product and in comparison to the DONGINBI Ginseng products?

[@michaellaspobres5769]

You do not age Odile. I love your skin

Might well as start eating red Ginseng in my diet.

[@OdileMonodTheMonodist]

I've been taking red ginseng supplements for about 10 years to help with a hereditary health condition and that's how I learned to appreciate its benefits, way before I discovered ginseng as a skincare ingredient 😂

[@mj.sorrondegui]

@@OdileMonodTheMonodist is there a brand that you can recommend? Hopefully one that ships to the US but if not then I can use a shipping service. Thanks!!

[@OdileMonodTheMonodist]

Cheong Kwan Jang used to be the former state monopoly and it's widely considered to be the best Ginseng manufacturer out there (they also own the Donginbi brand). They have both online and offline stores in the US so you should find their products pretty easily. I personally take their "Red Ginseng Extract Everytime" but they have lots of different products 😊

[@mj.sorrondegui]

@@OdileMonodTheMonodist thank you VERY much!

[@mybigcatfamily.336]

Hello Dear, Tnx a lot ,I love your channel so much❤. After watching yor videos about red ginseng,wanted try some products ,but unfortunately i founded only 1 serum without fragrance(the original one from "donginbi")....I obviously will try this one...Maybe are you familiar with another products from this brand and "HISTORY OF WHOO " ? Tnx a lot.

[@LittleAmyHe]

What product(s) would you recommend for someone in their 50’s and who’s main concern is lack of elasticity (leading to stretched pores and stuff)? Would really like to gift my mom a good anti-aging product. ^o^

[@NB-lx6gz]

Tretinoin or Retinols in general always use sunscreen

[@LittleAmyHe]

@@NB-lx6gz Thank you! But I knew that already. I meant more so in terms of red ginseng.

[@OdileMonodTheMonodist]

Sorry I saw your comment only now. If it helps Donginbi's Power Repair line is designed exactly to improve loss of tone and elasticity related to aging. It also helps with skin density and, in turn, texture and it can also be combined with a retinoid for quicker results.

[@LittleAmyHe]

@@OdileMonodTheMonodist Thank you so much for the reply! Will definitely look into this line.

[@mlmaryful]

Hi Odile. Can you review Mixsoon Ginseng essence?

[@cristinalabarbie948]

Grazie Odile, ne ho approfittato per prendere la mitica 1899 Single Essence

[@OdileMonodTheMonodist]

Grazie mille 🙏🙏

[@delialupan]

Are they upgrading their lines? There is a store here in Toronto selling 40% off everything from the brand as they said new stuff is coming out.

[@hyunwookim8678]

Yes. As I know Moisture & Balancing Line and Daily Defense Line are already renewal, Power Repair and other line will be renewal as soon as possible I think.

[@OdileMonodTheMonodist]

Indeed, the Moisture & Balancing line was recently reformulated in Korea, so was the Daily Defense Essence (as shown in the video) and the Hydra Bounce line (the products in the video are the newly reformulated ones). I think some shops in the West might need to get rid of old stock because of all these reformulations 😃

[@monstrevanilla5846]

I wished I was there 🥺

[@kriella30]

Can you recommend more budgetary sunscreen that is great

[@ciaccara100]

Ciao Odile, vorrei acquistare l'olio. Pensi che vada bene per una pelle mista? Grazie mille. Adoro i tuoi video

Grazie ❤ non è un olio che rimane pesante sulla pelle o eccessivamente unto, quindi credo proprio non avrai problemi, soprattutto perché ne basta veramente poco!
