REVIEW: SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Toning Toner | First Impressions 2020
My Thoughts about SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Toning Toner
A few days ago, Review Hunters reached out to me to try out the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Toning Toner. As I am always on the lookout for new skincare products to try, I said yes and got my package sorted.
While waiting for the items to arrive (as the items ship directly from South Korea), I researched the items, and here is what I have learned.
SKIN1004 started in 2012 in South Korea with a promise to deliver the trusted skincare benefits of its star ingredient, Centella Asiatica, which they source from Madagascar. They also aim to be your skin's guardian angel, as the number “one thousand and four” is a homonym for “angel” in the Korean language.
The main ingredients of their Toning Toner are: Centella Asiatica extract, PHA (gluconolactone), and hyaluronic acid
What do these ingredients do to our skin?
1. Centella Asiatica Extract
The star ingredient, Centella Asiatica Extract or also known as "cica" or "Madecassoside" is an anti-aging, moisturizing, soothing, and healing ingredient that is almost always featured in most South Korean skincare products. It also has an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect which is something skincare lovers look for in a skincare item. Most importantly, it helps revitalize the skin's protective barrier and neutralize the free radical damage caused by the sun and pollution exposure.
The one I got is 210ml but there is also a 400ml version. The bottle itself is very minimalistic which is a welcome trend nowadays. It just states what it is and a photo of the Madagascar Sahara at the back. I suggest keeping the box if you would want to look back on the ingredients or other information.
Now, for my thoughts about the product itself.
The product is definitely worthy of a place on my vanity table. It is also durable as the packaging is made of thick plastic and not glass. I also like that it has a seal, which makes me feel at ease that my product has not been tampered with.
Surprisingly, there is no detectable scent. I expected it to smell like nature, but nothing at all. The texture is very watery, and it does not leave any sticky or tacky residue on the skin.
I will try this for a week and let you know what the effects are on my skin.
