A highly astringent, old-school purifying toner. It utilizes a massive payload of Denatured Alcohol as its primary solvent to deliver Niacinamide and Salicylic Acid deep into the pores. This ensures an absolute flash-drying finish that leaves zero sticky residue, making it deeply satisfying for hyper-oily skin types. However, the combination of high alcohol, Peppermint Essential Oil, and synthetic fragrance makes it extremely aggressive. It is likely to strip the moisture barrier and cause stinging on compromised skin.
A magnificent, multi-tiered therapeutic moisturizer built to rescue Malaysia's most fragile, air-con damaged skin barriers. Skinmade engineered this cream around clinical **Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Extract** and **Alpha-Glucan Oligosaccharides** to directly feed beneficial skin flora and instantly mute severe itching pathways. By synergizing this with a complex biomimetic **Ceramide network** and Shea Butter, it forms a breathable but highly protective occlusive ceiling. The physical texture is a remarkably smooth, whipped cream-lotion that spreads with a rich emollient cushion, melting down flat within 30 seconds into a beautiful, non-greasy dewy satin shield.
An incredibly elegant, lipid-rich cleansing milk designed specifically for dry and compromised skin barriers. It utilizes exceptionally gentle, plant-derived glucose surfactants combined with Sunflower Seed Oil to melt away daily impurities and light makeup without disrupting the acid mantle. The inclusion of fermented honey extract ensures the skin microbiome is supported during the wash safely.
A breathtaking achievement in local Vitamin C formulation. Pure L-Ascorbic Acid oxidizes rapidly in tropical heat, turning brown and irritating the skin. The Raw bypasses this by utilizing a staggering 20 percent concentration of 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, the most stable and effective Vitamin C derivative available. This allows for clinical-grade collagen stimulation and spot fading without the low-pH acid burn. The massive botanical load ensures the skin remains completely calm while the active vitamin works flawlessly.
The absolute gold standard for calming reactive skin layouts. Instead of a water base packed with synthetic thickeners, it replaces 77% of the bottle with pure Houttuynia Cordata (Heartleaf) extract. Heartleaf contains natural quercitrin compounds that immediately restrict vascular swelling and down-regulate heat inside the skin layers. It feels exactly like pure, light water and absorbs instantly with zero tackiness, acting like a cooling, anti-inflammatory splash. It works miracles for calming active, angry acne breakouts and cooling down skin flushed by tropical heat, but holds minimal lipid value for dry skin types.
A spectacular formulation milestone in the local Malaysian mass market that merges clinical active treatment with ultra-mild cleansing parameters. Safi entirely discards harsh, high-pH sodium lauryl sulfate detergents, engineering this gel cleanser close to the skin natural physiological pH of 5.5. It utilizes soft coconut-derived amphoteric surfactants (Cocamidopropyl Betaine) to float away sweat and pollution. Enhanced with leave-on style serum concentrations of pure Centella Asiatica and active Salicylic Acid, it suppresses blemish inflammation and melts surface micro-clogs during the wash step, leaving an absolute zero-tightness dewy-smooth finish.
A highly unique, ultra-lightweight gel lotion that bridges the gap between a body lotion and a facial moisturizer. By combining a staggering 27-ingredient matrix including Niacinamide, Ceramides, and various botanical extracts, it hydrates deeply without heavy stickiness. However, the inclusion of Ethanol (drying alcohol) alongside Lavender and Rosemary essential oils makes it a significant risk for hyper-reactive or clinically sensitive skin maps despite its Derma Care labeling.
A highly practical, fast-acting drugstore favorite across Malaysia designed specifically to handle severe T-zone congestion under intense tropical heat waves. Aiken effectively pairs oil-soluble Salicylic Acid (BHA) to break apart hardened sebum plugs inside the pore walls with large-molecule Lactobionic Acid (PHA) to sweep away surface dead cells gently. It incorporates an ethanol baseline vehicle to rapidly dissolve skin surface grease, which grants an instantaneous cooling, weightless bare finish. While highly efficient at checking daytime shine, its astringent volatile nature requires proper hydration profiling right after to prevent compensatory oil overproduction on compromised skin paths.
A highly sophisticated, feather-light clinical eye treatment designed to tackle puffiness and genetic hyperpigmentation simultaneously. Skinmade avoids heavy, milia-inducing eye creams, opting instead for a rapid-absorbing serum vehicle. It features highly stable 3 percent lipid-soluble Vitamin C (Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate) and a triad of tyrosinase inhibitors (Kojic Acid Dipalmitate, Licorice, Alpha Arbutin) to shut down localized melanin production flawlessly. Furthermore, the precise dose of Caffeine acts as a diuretic, immediately stimulating microcirculation to drain water retention and under-eye puffiness. The texture is a brilliant, water-light fluid that sits perfectly under daytime concealers without creasing.
An advanced hybrid sunscreen that seamlessly merges physical Titanium Dioxide with high-performance chemical filters like Tinosorb S and Uvinul T 150. This creates an incredibly photostable UV shield. The tinted formulation entirely bypasses the white cast problem typical of physical filters, while the addition of Licorice Root Extract acts as an active brightening agent to tackle hyperpigmentation during the day safely.
A traditional, 100 percent natural DIY-style physical powder mask. It relies purely on the mechanical friction of ground oats, rice, and epsom salt to physically sheer away dead skin cells. The inclusion of raw Turmeric powder provides a massive antioxidant and anti-inflammatory burst, highly effective for flattening active acne nodes. However, as a dry physical scrub, it requires extreme caution and a very gentle hand to avoid creating micro-tears in the moisture barrier.
The absolute brute-force drugstore weapon against fungal acne and body congestion across Malaysia. Unlike gentle low-pH modern gels, Safeguard utilizes a traditional high-pH saponified soap base (Sodium Palmate) packed with raw elemental Sulfur. This alkaline environment combined with sulfur provides an incredibly powerful keratolytic and antifungal action—shredding the lipid food sources of Malassezia yeast and flattening active backne pustules within days. However, because its pH sits near 9.5, it is intensely stripping. If used full-face daily without an extreme ceramide repair routine, it will completely denature your stratum corneum lipids and induce severe tightness.
