Caution: a patch test is recommended for sensitive skin
backed by evidenceNot a functional product
backed by evidenceRecommended situations: when dryness is felt, when you want to keep the routine simple
plausible, not testedAs a wipe-off toner: dispense an appropriate amount onto a cotton pad, wipe gently along the grain of the skin, then pat lightly to absorb.
plausible, not testedIngredient points: ceramide, hyaluronic acid, panthenol, centella extract
partly backedDaily routine: the first step after washing (morning/evening)
partly backedFeel guide, recommendations by skin type: (oily/combination) a fresh wipe-off toner · (dry/inner dryness) a moist toner pack and layering
partly backedAs a moisturising pack: soak a cotton pad generously, place it on dry skin and remove after 10 minutes.
partly backedIt is a milky texture that balances oil and moisture. The ceramide ingredient does not sit on top of the skin but absorbs densely like mochi, leaving only a deep moisturised feel without stickiness.
partly backedUsing it as a 'toner pack' by soaking a cotton pad generously and laying it on dry areas for 5 to 10 minutes, or putting it in an empty bottle and spraying it frequently like a mist, helps create dense mochi skin.
partly backedIt is a viscous milky white texture, but the moment it touches the skin it spreads softly and absorbs quickly, raising the adherence of the next skincare step.
partly backedThe ceramide ingredient fills moisture and nourishment at the same time.
