I used to think all Hyaluronic Acid (HA) was the same, but most serums just sit on the surface and leave a sticky film. This one is different because it uses five different molecular weights of HA to actually reach the deeper layers of your skin. It’...

I reached for the Dear Klairs EGF Blue Youth Activating Drop during a full skin crisis - fungal acne flare that wouldn’t calm down no matter what I tried. I was so scared to try anything new that I patch-tested on my jaw first. What shocked me was ho...

Mantasha K profile picture

Arencia Fresh Green Rice Mochi Cleanser 120g
 
Mantasha K profile picture
This one's basically the triple threat of exfoliation in a single bottle.. glycolic acid (AHA) for surface texture, salicylic acid (BHA) to actually clear inside the pore, and lactobionic acid (PHA) as the gentle one that hydrates while it exfoliates...

As the tittle says: toning toner. This is an absolute must have as a 1st step after cleansing the face, its extremely lightweight hence it gets absorbed into the skin deeply and prepares it for the second step which is serum.
