Rose & Botanic HA Aqua Cubic Hydrator EX
🌱 Brand Story: Naruko is a Taiwanese brand founded in 2002, which is a long time in the Asian skincare world. Nui Er, the founder, has very direct involvement in the development and testing of Naruko’s products and oversees strict quality control. Naruko’s product lines tend to highlight star ingredients, though their formulas contain a range of beneficial components.
🌱 Claims: A gel moisturiser that provides long-lasting lightweight hydration.
🌱 Key Ingredients: phytoferulinr extract, kalanchoe spathulata extract, glycyrrhizin labra (licorice) root extract, alpine skullcap (scutellaria alpine) flower/leaf/stem extract
🌱 Notes: I’m amazed at how thick the formula was for not having any snail secretion in it. It is completely vegan, but holds moisture incredibly well.
🌱 Texture: Rather thick gel coming out of the bottle, but as soon as it hits warm skin it starts melting. Very unique formula.
🌱 Scent: Smells exactly like a bouquet of fresh roses. This is one of the best smelling products I’ve ever used.
🌱 Application: You know those products that are so perfect, you use as slowly as possible and hang onto them well past their expiry date? This is one of those. Just the most refreshing, hydrating experience with the softest scent of roses. My skin always looked plump and ten years younger when I used it in the morning.
🌱 Every day: Given an unlimited supply, yes.
🌱 Packaging: The bottle shown here is the old packaging, and has since been repackaged into a similar style of bottle, but more pink. I love that this product has a completely airtight pump that does not allow oxygen of bacteria to contaminate the formula. Good packaging greatly extends the shelf life of skincare, and is a benefit to customers who become loyal brand customers.
🌱 Overall: This product is discontinued from Naruko, which is a shame because it is such a lovely and unique formula. Asian skincare brands have a knack for creating holy grails and then killing them off for no reason. Sigh.
I believe it has been discontinued 💀🪦🥲
