Give your skin the rich herbal cocktail of many an Asian grandmother’s loving herbal soups with the Asian Powerhouse Serum. Adeline formulated this serum by using herbal extracts that remind them of traditional Asian health-boosting soups and stews made for them when they were a child by their mother and grandmother.
Ingredient Deep Dive:
🌿 Ginseng: this antioxidant powerhouse is revered in traditional Chinese medicine for its ability to revive tired skin and its anti-aging properties.
🌿 Sake: Sake is incredible for evening skin tone and diminishing the appearance of scars, as well as to make skin appear younger and fresher.
🌿 Turmeric: a traditional ingredient used across Asia to speed scar healing, to even skin tone and brighten skin.
🌿 Camellia Japonica: also known as Tsubaki, this beautiful flower and plant is rich in vitamins A, B, D, E, and Omega 3, 6 and 9 and is many a Japanese woman’s skin secret.
🌿Goji Berries are antioxidant rich and helps rejuvenate sun damaged skin
🌿 Mushroom extract mix: mushrooms are anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and have anti-aging effects
🌿Bamboo and fermented Bamboo: provides deep hydration and helps with hyperpigmentation.
Asian Powerhouse Serum functions like a K-Beauty "essence" to be applied right after cleansing, and before heavier layers like the Marine Serum and facial oils. Pairs extremely well with Marine Serum (which will go on after you apply Asian Powerhouse).

This is one of the first items I tried from SB several years ago, and I have been using it ever since. It was part of a sensitive skin set I started out with. Asian Powerhouse Serum soaks in immediately and is a good preparation for layering other serums. It just takes a few drops.

I got the trial size which lasted me about a month. My skin is extremely dull and this helped brighten it up a bit! I'm sure with more use over time it could have a greater effect. It did leave my skin a little sticky so I only used it at night.
HI Samah, We are happy to hear that Asian Powerhouse has helped brighten your skin! - SB Team

Ugh, I wish this serum worked for me SO MUCH. I think it actually did work for me - it did amazing things to my skin, but it also did terrible things. :( I am super sensitive to ginseng - anytime I ingest it (soups, teas, gummies, etc), I get angry, red, hard cysts. I didn't think it was a concern putting it on my face - boy was I wrong! I ended up with multiple angry cysts on my face after using this serum for more than a week. :( So, so, so sad. But also glad I discovered how sensitive I am to ginseng.

I bought this product as recommended to counter my redness near my chin and nose area. While it didn’t complete remove the redness, it definitely toned it down. I love the scent of the ginseng and it’s nice and gentle on the skin. I find that it works well when paired with Marine serum, but if you go this route be sure apply Asian powerhouse first since marine is a little stronger. Photo shows the reduce redness after using just toner, Asian power house, and moisturizer in the morning.

I love the watery texture of this serum for summer skincare. My skin always looks and feels bright, tight, and happy when using this serum.
