⏱ 1 min read
⚡ Quick answer: 자소엽 (jasoyeop) is the purple perilla leaf you meet as a side dish before you meet it in a toner. Its rosmarinic acid content gives the soothing framing some grounding, and it sits comfortably in the Korean 진정 (jinjeong, calming) category alongside centella and heartleaf. Supporting botanical, not a corrective active.
