Star RetinAL Super Skin Renewal Night Serum
Skinmade
Star RetinAL Super Skin Renewal Night Serum
Serum

A highly advanced cellular renewal treatment engineered to deliver clinical-grade retinaldehyde without the notorious flaking loops of traditional retinol. By utilizing Cyclodextrin Complexed RetinAL, the active molecule is smart-released over hours deep within the skin layers. Synergized with X50 Peptides and RejuveNAD, it supercharges cellular energy and collagen synthesis simultaneously. The texture is a beautifully smooth, lightweight lotion that sinks into the skin flawlessly, leaving a perfectly balanced, non-greasy finish.

Vitamin C & E + Alpha Arbutin Serum
Skinmade
Vitamin C & E + Alpha Arbutin Serum
Serum

A superb stable brightening fluid designed specifically for tropical climates where pure L-Ascorbic Acid oxidizes too rapidly. Skinmade utilizes an elite highly stable dual Vitamin C matrix (Ethyl Ascorbic Acid plus Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate) and pairs it with melanin-blocking Alpha Arbutin, Vitamin E, and Ferulic Acid. This creates a highly tolerable, non-stinging brightening engine that fades sun spots safely. The texture is a lightweight fluid that glides beautifully without any sticky residue.

2% Alpha Arbutin + Tranexamic Acid Serum
Serum

An exceptional pigmentation eraser that delivers dual-action clinical brightening without the irritation associated with strong acids. Skinmade utilizes an optimized 2 percent Alpha Arbutin concentration (a safe hydroquinone derivative) to block tyrosinase activity directly. Concurrently, Tranexamic Acid shuts down the inflammatory pathways that tell the skin to produce excess melanin in the first place. The physical texture is a completely water-clear, ultra-lightweight fluid liquid gel that glides smoothly across uneven cell reliefs, drying touch-bare within 15 seconds into a fresh, non-sticky satin canvas.

Green Tea Seed Hyaluronic Serum
Innisfree
Green Tea Seed Hyaluronic Serum
Serum

The absolute benchmark for daily refreshing hydration across Asian skincare lines. In its newly upgraded iteration, Innisfree completely re-engineered this classic by ditching heavy volatile alcohols and infusing a high-tech 5-layer Nano Hyaluronic Acid system combined with localized lipid components (Ceramide NP, Cholesterol, Phytosphingosine). It completely satisfies dry, tight cells by delivering an immediate cooling splash that fully quenches internal pulling lines. The consistency is an ultra-fluid, slippery milky-clear gel that sinks in flat with an elegant satin finish.

Centella Complex + Squalane Serum
Skinmade
Centella Complex + Squalane Serum
Serum

The definitive SOS treatment for highly reactive, damaged skin. Instead of relying on a weak watery extract, Skinmade formulates this serum with a staggering 83 percent Centella Asiatica baseline. It physically isolates the most potent clinical compounds of the plant to rapidly accelerate wound healing. Supported by a 5 percent Beta Glucan matrix and bio-compatible Squalane, it drops localized facial heat almost immediately upon application. The texture is a beautiful, cloudy hydro-gel that spreads with an immensely soothing cushion, absorbing cleanly within 20 seconds to leave a touch-soft, deeply calmed canvas.

Nanowhite
Intensive Brightening Serum
Serum

A household dark spot clearing favorite across Malaysia, explicitly relied on to undo stubborn pigmentation caused by direct tropical sun waves. Nanowhite operates through its signature **Nano Encapsulation matrix**, binding raw lighteners (Arbutin, Vitamin C, and Glutathione) inside a micro-lipid carrier sheet. This allows the active molecules to slide past dense epidermal lipid boundaries cleanly without breaking down early. Enhanced with lipid-balancing essential fatty acids from Borage Oil, it clears up dark acne shadows seamlessly. The texture is a feather-light, milk-white fluid serum that liquefies instantly over cell junctions, setting into an absolute weightless touch with zero afternoon stickiness.

Salicylic Acid & PAD + Licorice Root Serum
Serum

A multi-pathway targeted treatment that replaces harsh traditional spot treatments. By utilizing Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate (a water-soluble Azelaic derivative), it avoids the chalky texture of pure Azelaic Acid. Coupled with BHA and Licorice Root, it rapidly deflates active blemishes and fades red post-acne marks simultaneously. The texture is a watery liquid gel that absorbs perfectly without stinging.

Golden C + Exoshot Collagen Boosting Filler Concentrate
Skinmade
Golden C + Exoshot Collagen Boosting Filler Concentrate
Serum

Dubbed the needle-free filler, this high-potency concentrate is designed for precise spot application. It utilizes a patented Golden C complex (Ascorbic Acid conjugated to Gold and Glutathione) to ensure absolute stability and penetration past the outer barrier safely. Driven by a massive bio-active network including Matrixyl 3000, Neodermyl, and Salmon DNA (PDRN), it exponentially accelerates collagen and elastin synthesis. The texture is a highly concentrated, rich serum droplet that melts seamlessly into the nasolabial folds and jawline to physically redefine facial contours.

While it will not deliver the rapid overnight peeling of pure prescription retinoids, it is expertly buffered with Niacinamide, Panthenol, and Silicones. This creates a very comfortable, silky emulsion that slowly brightens stubborn dark spots over weeks of consistent use without causing severe barrier damage.
