Product Description
Hada Labo Arbutin Whitening range is its triple times of the hydration power!
Key Ingredients :
Arbutin – Natural plant extract that enhances skin fairness and fight against dark spots.
Vitamin C – Repairs dry and dull skin that has been through sun damage.
Hyaluronic Acid – Provides and retains intense moisture to the skin, keeping skin well-hydrated.
I redeemed a 20ml sample from its facebook page in November and have been using it as a toner for the last couple of weeks.
Hada Labo is famed for its products with Hyaluronic Acid that do not contain unnecessary addictives, colourants, alcohol, fragrances and mineral oil. This whitening lotion has the same philosophy.
Note that there is a new formula with Nano Formula indicated on the retail size however, my 20ml size does not have the fonts, so I am uncertain if its the same product. However, based on my understanding, the Nano Formula product can be redeemed on its facebook page from 1st November and I redeemed mine on 9th November, so logically, it should be the same product.
This light-textured lotion is water-based and colourless. Its not runny like water but still fluid enough to able to be patted onto the skin to get it absorbed. It does leave a slight stickiness immediately after application which took awhile for it to get totally absorbed.
Initially, I do feel that my skin is well-hydrated, almost bouncy and keeping my skin fair but after more than 2 weeks of usage, the effects were not that apparent and almost nonexistent. It feels like a regular toner.
Still, I have to say, my skin was not flaky during the time I was using this. The fairness was well-maintained but it did not provide me with the glow and radiance that I was expecting.
Despite touting the product as having 3 times of hydration, the ingredient is found near to the bottom of the list, so it seemed abit misleading to me.
It retails for $22.90 so its a value-for-money product if it works for you, especially with hydrating and whitening benefits together. Its not easy to find something that brightens and hydrates in a product, at least for my skin type.
This product scored 3.3 from 17 users on Makeupalley with some users encountering little red bumps on their skin.
