Snailwhite Essence Waters
Filipinos aren't used to adding this step to their skincare routine, but it's the one we need to achieve instant glass skin. It's a glass of water for thirsty skin, and provides much more than that. Meet Snailwhite's latest Moisture Soothing Essence Water and Gold Lifting Essence Water—the holiest of holy grails from Snailwhite! Both are infused with signature Snail Mucin to repair the skin barrier and stimulate collagen and elastin production. The Moisture Soothing Essence Water has Nano Hyaluronic Acid and Squalane which instantly plumps skin, and Vit. C to even out skin tone. On the other hand, the Gold Lifting Essence Water improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It gives an instant lifting effect, thanks to Wheatgrass extract and Snail Mucin. It also contains Niacinamide to treat hyperpigmentation, and 24K Lipobelle Gold for a radiant glow! It's time to be like the Japanese and Koreans— add that extra layer of essence after cleansing and toning, and you're ready to apply the rest of your routine!

Oxecure Daily Sunscreen SPF50
SPF for acne-prone skin? It's now a reality!

It's both a physical and chemical sunscreen, helping you get the best of both worlds, without irritating skin. The lightweight formula lightens dark spots, controls excessive oil production, and the physical UV filters have anti-inflammatory properties to relieve redness and irritation from breakouts. The unique formula contains Cactus extract, Organic Aloe Vera, and Dandelion extract that work hand-in-hand to control sebum, give a calming effect, and protect against pollutants. Lastly, Vit. E, B3, and B5 brightens and evens out skin tone!
