About Puyun

Puyun ( "poo-yoon") brings together two Chinese words. Pu means simple and unadorned. Yun means rhythm, and the quiet resonance that lingers after something beautiful. Together, they describe the life we hope to share: simple, natural, and in rhythm with the seasons.

Our Story

Puyun began in Shanghai with four people who share one thing: years spent in Traditional Chinese Medicine, in clinics, research labs and classrooms.

Over those years, we noticed something. The most lasting parts of Chinese wellness wisdom aren’t the complicated ones. They’re the small daily habits our grandparents never skipped: a warm foot soak on winter nights, combing hair slowly in the morning, a cup of ginger tea when the weather turns cold, a little fragrance carried through the day.

These habits are simple, but they are quietly disappearing from modern life. Puyun is our way of bringing them back, into your home, wherever you live.

Who We Are

• A TCM dermatologist and postdoctoral researcher practicing in Shanghai, who reviews the guidance we share.

• A TCM doctoral researcher with clinical experience, who answers your questions and writes our seasonal living notes.

• A research scientist specializing in plant-derived ingredients, who reviews the ingredients, materials and documents of every product we carry.

• A TCM graduate student and founder, who works with our makers every day to bring each product to you.

How We Choose Our Products

We’re a small, young team, and we want to be honest with you: we don’t make every product ourselves yet. For now, we curate. We work with established makers and choose each item for three reasons:

1. It fits an Eastern everyday habit worth keeping.

2. Its ingredients or materials are documented and reviewed by our team.

3. It’s simple, honest and fairly priced.

Every product page tells you who made it. Our long-term goal is to create Puyun’s own formulas, built on our team’s research into botanical ingredients. When they’re ready, you’ll be the first to know.

What We Promise

A way of living, not a cure. Our products are for everyday care and enjoyment. We will never promise to treat or cure anything, and we’ll never exaggerate what a product can do.

The tips we share are general lifestyle information rooted in Chinese tradition, not medical advice. For any health concern, please talk to your own doctor.

Where We Ship From

We’re based in Shanghai, China, and orders ship from our partners in China. Delivery to the US usually takes 7–15 business days. Every order comes with tracking.
