Salicylic Acid + Gluconolactone Gentle Renewing Cleanser
Skinmade
Salicylic Acid + Gluconolactone Gentle Renewing Cleanser
Cleanser

A clinically brilliant active wash from Skinmade that perfectly balances deep pore purification with barrier protection. By skipping harsh alkaline soaps entirely, it leverages ultra-mild coconut and oat amino acid surfactants mapped to a physiological pH of 5.5. It uniquely combines oil-soluble Salicylic Acid (BHA) to liquefy deep internal pore sebum with Gluconolactone (PHA) to gently sweep away surface dead cells without the stinging limits of AHAs. Enhanced with Oat Extract and Zinc PCA, it controls oil output while keeping the skin completely calm. The texture is a smooth, clear liquid gel that forms a soft, low-friction lather, washing away completely bare without any tight, squeaky feeling.

Grape Seed Oil + Squalane Nourishing Cleansing Oil
Cleanser

The absolute gold-standard definition of double-cleansing compliance across Malaysia. Skinmade engineered this pure oil wash explicitly to solve the heavy, pore-clogging drawbacks of old mineral oil formulas. It structures the solvent system around lightweight, non-comedogenic Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil paired with bio-compatible Squalane. It breaks the lipophilic polymer bonds of waterproof sports SPFs and matte foundations effortlessly upon contact. Driven by PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate, it reacts instantly with tap water to turn into a milky fluid that washes off completely bare. The physical texture is an ultra-fluid, light golden oil with a slippery cushion glide, dropping rubbing friction flat.

Vitamin C & E + Alpha Arbutin Brightening Serum
Serum

A superb stable brightening fluid designed specifically for tropical climates where pure L-Ascorbic Acid oxidizes too rapidly. Skinmade utilizes 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, an elite highly stable Vitamin C derivative, and pairs it with melanin-blocking Alpha Arbutin and Vitamin E. 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.

Cosmoderm
Luminous A Creamy Liquid Cleanser
Cleanser

A traditional creamy foam wash built around saponified fatty acids. Driven by Myristic and Palmitic acids mixed with Potassium Hydroxide, it generates a dense luxurious physical lather that possesses massive surface degreasing strength. While it embeds Retinyl Palmitate to support general anti-aging concepts, the ingredient is washed down the drain within seconds. The alkaline wash layout is highly efficient at removing stubborn afternoon grime, but it can leave dry skin perimeters feeling quite tight if not buffered immediately with a toner step.

Vitamin E Revitalising Moisturizer 1000 I.U.
Cosmoderm
Vitamin E Revitalising Moisturizer 1000 I.U.
Moisturizer

A highly accessible, classic drugstore recovery cream. Cosmoderm loads this emulsion with 1000 IU of antioxidant Vitamin E (Tocopherol Acetate) and pairs it with Rosehip Seed Oil and Sunflower Oil to accelerate the healing of fresh red marks. While marketed as a light moisturizer, the formula is quite emollient, relying on Isopropyl Myristate and Stearic Acid. This gives it a dense, protective finish that is excellent for repairing compromised barriers, but it poses a very high comedogenic risk for hyper-oily or actively breaking-out skin types.

Tea Tree Oil Anti-Blemish X-press Gel
Cosmoderm
Tea Tree Oil Anti-Blemish X-press Gel
Spot Treatment

An aggressive, fast-acting localized spot solution engineered to dry out active pus-filled blemishes with speed. Skinmade structures this gel using pure antimicrobial Tea Tree Oil paired with lipophilic Salicylic Acid. To maximize immediate active delivery into the follicle gates, it utilizes a Denatured Alcohol base. This flash-dries on contact, driving the active components directly into the target node. While highly efficient at deflating painful bumps overnight, the presence of Menthol and solvents means it will sting if applied broadly across healthy skin zones.

Calming Micellar H2O Toner
Cleanser

A highly advanced micellar liquid functioning as a cleansing toner. It relies on a gentle but highly effective blend of Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside to encapsulate and lift daily makeup and SPF without stripping native lipids. By saturating the formula with hydrating sugars (Xylitylglucoside, Xylitol) and a mineral complex (Zinc, Copper, Magnesium), it actively remineralizes the skin immediately during the wiping phase safely.

Some By Mi
AHA-BHA-PHA 30 Days Miracle Toner
Toner

The absolute local legend of anti-acne clearing waters across Malaysia. Some By Mi masterfully bridges the gap between active multi-acid chemical peeling and everyday skin safety by keeping the raw concentration lines tightly controlled: containing **500ppm Citric Acid (AHA)** for surface smoothing, **100ppm Salicylic Acid (BHA)** for mild sebum clearance, and **100ppm Lactobionic Acid (PHA)** for moisture binding. This low-percentage triple synergy operates at a skin-friendly physiological pH of 5.5, micro-exfoliating dead skin cells slowly over consecutive nights. Infused with a high **10,000ppm Tea Tree** fraction, it actively controls acne bacteria propagation loops cleanly, setting down instantly with a cooling, minty bare-skin canvas.

Aiken
Prebiotic Micro Emulsion Oil Cleanser
Cleanser

A highly advanced, lightweight cleansing oil. By utilizing elite micro-emulsifiers like PEG-20 Glyceryl Triisostearate, the oil bonds instantly to heavy cosmetic polymers and completely liquefies them. Upon contact with water, the entire matrix turns milky white and rinses away without leaving a suffocating greasy film. The inclusion of Prebiotics ensures the skin flora is undisturbed during the heavy cleansing phase safely.
