Ingredients Explained

Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.
So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

Anua 8 Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Gentle Foaming Cleanser 32 ingredients
I've tried a few Anua products in the past, but unfortunately, they all led to breakouts.
The products I used were:
1) Anua Azelaic 10 Serum (too harsh, has BHA)
2) Anua PHA Toner Pads (too harsh)
3) Anua Heartleaf Pore Cleansing Oil (too harsh)
4) Anua 77 Heartleaf Toner (does nothing)
5) Anua Sunscreen (quite matte hence drying)
I initially thought my skin just didn’t react well to Show more
Finding a good cleanser is hard for my dry sensitive skin but this one has become quickly my holy grail product. Not only does it cleanse my face very well it also leaves it soft. My face does not feel dry.
