Key Ingredients:

• Liposome Encapsulated Retinal 0.1%
  Retinal (retinaldehyde) is often considered more potent and faster-acting than retinol, as its form and structure are one step closer to retinoic acid, the active form of Vitamin A. 107 aims to stabilize the retinoid formula for maximum effectiveness upon application, further encapsulating the retinal in liposomes to minimize oxidation from light and heat. They also carefully maintain a neutral pH range of 5-7 and choose a dark, airless pump container to minimize exposure to air and improve the stability of this potent ingredient. Soseo VINBIOME Retinal Serum contains 0.1% active retinal, which is often considered the optimal concentration for skincare.

• VINBIOME™ Complex
  Based on rigorous scientific research, 107 carefully selects proven and effective skincare ingredients, which are fermented by Hanega artisans to develop patented vinegar extracts with higher concentrations of absorbable active ingredients for enhanced efficacy. Since 107 values balanced skin health, they combine patented fermented extracts with their special aged vinegars to create a unique, holistic complex called VINBIOME™, which helps promote a healthy skin microbiome and sustainable "revitalization" of the skin.

• Probiotic Complex
  Hanega artisans care deeply for their proprietary probiotic cultures, nurturing them as their own children. They feed their probiotics with the finest herbs and naturally sourced foods, even playing traditional Korean folk songs to provide a peaceful environment for their growth. They never enter the warehouse unless they are in a good emotional state. The artisans care so much for their probiotics because they know that effective fermentation of the probiotic culture is crucial for producing abundant and balanced postbiotics.

107 also highly values the harmony and well-being of the skin microbiome, as any imbalance can lead to various skin challenges. They study the skin microbiome and select key probiotic strains that can help balance and improve the health of the skin's microbiome. The 107 Probiotic Complex includes selective probiotic ingredients such as Lactobacillus Plantarum, Lactobacillus Johnsonii, Lactobacillus Rhamnosus, Lactobacillus Acidophilus, and Lactobacillus Reuteri), Lactococcus Ferment (Lactococcus Lactis), Bifida Ferment Lysate (Bifidobacterium Longum), and Streptococcus Thermophilus Ferment.

• VinB10-Biotic™ Ginseng (Hydrolyzed Ginsenosides)
  For generations, Hanega artisans have fermented vinegar with ginseng roots for traditional Asian medicine doctors, who have used these vinegars in the creation of traditional remedies. The Panax ginseng root is often known for containing large amounts of unique saponins, known as ginsenosides, such as Rg1, Rg3, Rg5, Rh1, Rh4, and Rk1, which are beneficial for health and well-being. The long and meticulous fermentation process of aged vinegar further breaks down these unique saponins into a greater variety and more easily absorbed ginsenosides. 107's patented ginseng VinB10-Biotic™ is fermented with a 10-year-old black vinegar and further refined into a multifunctional ingredient that helps firm and soothe the skin.

• VinB10-Biotic™ Wheat (Triticum Aestivum Seed Extract)
  One of the most important ingredients for aged vinegar is the Korean fermentation starter called "nuruk," which is a naturally fermented wheat mold containing various microorganisms and enzymes. “Nuruk” has a rich concentration of polysaccharides, which are beneficial for skin health. In collaboration with Hanega artisans, 107 discovered the optimal fermentation and refining process to break down these wheat polysaccharides into the most effective form for skincare formulations. 107 uses their own VinB10-Biotic™ wheat, fermented with a 10-year-old black vinegar and further refined into a multifunctional ingredient that helps firm and soothe the skin.

• VinH7-Biotic™ Pine (Pinus Sylvestris Bark Extract)
  Another important ingredient for Hanega's aged vinegars is pine needles harvested from acri pine trees in Hanega's brewery on Ganghwa Island. It is no surprise that pine bark extract is often recommended as a skincare ingredient by Korean dermatologists due to its exceptional antioxidant capabilities. Alongside Hanega artisans, 107 develops the optimal fermentation and refining process to increase the content of taxifolin, one of the representative antioxidant components found in pine trees. 107's patented VinH7-Biotic™ Pine is fermented with a premium 7-year-old ginkgo vinegar and further refined into an enhanced antioxidant ingredient that helps combat oxidative stress on the skin.

• VIN-B10™
  VIN-B10 is a patented vinegar ingredient from 107, processed from 10-year-old black vinegar from Hanega with 35+ beneficial nutrients such as amino acids, organic acids, minerals, and vitamins. This premium aged vinegar contains more vitamins such as Vitamin A, B5, C, and D, which help brighten and hydrate the skin. Hanega artisans source the organic rice used in this premium aged vinegar from trusted rice grain producers throughout Korea.

• Prebiotic Complex
  Microorganisms and probiotics in the skin microbiome need "food" or prebiotics to stay healthy and functional. Based on research, 107 selects key prebiotic ingredients that can help nourish the skin's microbiome. The 107 prebiotic complex consists of proven prebiotic ingredients like xylitol, rhamnose, fructooligosaccharides, and inulin.

• Niacinamide
  Helps improve the appearance of enlarged pores, uneven skin tone, fine lines, wrinkles, and dullness of the complexion.
