The concept of TCM beauty is deeply rooted in ancient Chinese medicine and beauty culture, which emphasizes the philosophy of “nourishing from within to balance the outside.” This means that by harmonizing the body’s internal energy (Qi), blood, and Yin-Yang balance, one can enhance external beauty. Chinese medicine has been used for skincare for thousands of years, with a long history of herbal remedies, facial massages, and beauty rituals. During the Tang, Song, and Ming-Qing dynasties, TCM and beauty practices became widespread among the elite, using herbal formulas and techniques passed down through generations. Famous remedies from ancient texts like the Compendium of Materia Medica (Bencao Gangmu) were widely used for beauty and skincare.

In modern times, with advancements in technology, TCM beauty has evolved from traditional herbal face masks and medicinal soups into more diverse and systematic skincare methods, including Chinese herbal serums, creams, and massage devices, combined with modern extraction techniques and formulation science to offer convenient and effective skincare experiences.
