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.
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.
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.
The absolute ultimate starter retinol for sensitive, acne-prone Asian skin. Traditional Western retinoids often dump high percentages of pure retinol into basic formulas, causing severe peeling, extreme chemical burning, and painful purging cycles. Some By Mi masterfully structures this by using a gentle, introductory 0.1% Pure Retinol backed by a tiny trace of fast-acting Retinal and 0.5% Bakuchiol (a plant-derived retinol analogue). It is completely stabilized inside a rich lavender-tinted fluid loaded with Centella, Panthenol, and Ceramides. It delivers authentic cell-turnover benefits (pore tightening, blemish clearing, fine line smoothing) with practically zero barrier irritation. It is incredibly safe for daily nighttime use.
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.
An incredibly controversial formulation. Marketed as a light day and night moisturizer for acne-prone skin, it inexplicably loads the base with highly comedogenic esters (Isopropyl Myristate, Stearic Acid) and heavy physical mattifiers (Talc, Aluminum Starch). Furthermore, it includes chemical UV filters (Benzophenone-3, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate) alongside physical Titanium Dioxide. Using chemical sunscreens overnight is biologically redundant and severely risks trapping sweat and sebum, leading to massive cystic breakouts rather than clearing them.
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.
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.
The absolute classic anti-acne foaming wash. It relies on a heavy saponified fatty acid matrix consisting of Myristic, Stearic, Palmitic, and Lauric acids neutralized by Potassium Hydroxide. This composition creates a massive, ultra-dense cloud of lather that forcefully strips away heavy grease sheets and oxidized sebum blocks. The addition of pure Australian Tea Tree Oil establishes an immediate antibacterial baseline to combat acne nodes.
A breathtaking bio-ferment treatment engineered to rebuild the skin microbiome natively. By subjecting Galactomyces, Red Ginseng, and Centella to a proprietary double-fermentation protocol, Skinmade radically reduces the molecular weight of the bio-active peptides, ensuring maximum cellular absorption without surface stickiness. It floods the stratum corneum with a massive concentration of Prebiotics, Probiotics, and Postbiotics. The texture is an absolute weightless, crystal-clear water essence that splashes over the skin cleanly, absorbing instantly to leave a highly refined, luminous and balanced canvas.
A massive holy-grail staple across Malaysia, celebrated for offering immense volume and an unparalleled weightless texture. Rohto Mentholatum masterfully dissolves broad-spectrum chemical filters (Tinosorb S, Uvinul A Plus, and Octinoxate) inside a highly advanced hydro-gel matrix. It utilizes a volatile alcohol carrier to rapidly glide across the face, flashing off moisture heat instantly under intense tropical humidity. It leaves an entirely transparent, fresh dewy-satin canvas that locks down water depth using four weights of Hyaluronic Acid, making it completely clear of chalky white ghosting on all skin complexions.
A traditional, heavy-lathering saponified foam wash. Because it utilizes Myristic and Stearic fatty acids reacted with Potassium Hydroxide, it has a very high, alkaline pH. Despite marketing claims targeting soothing benefits, the aggressive alkaline soap base will strip the natural acid mantle, leading to a tight, squeaky feeling. The inclusion of Niacinamide and Salicylic Acid in a rinse-off alkaline format offers limited biological contact time, while the Peppermint oil creates a cooling but sensitizing wash experience.
