Here's what our community thinks
Hada Labo Shirojyun Premium Whitening Emulsion 22 ingredients
I accidentally bought this instead of the lotion, not thinking much about it since I love the lotion version. But I had a terrible reaction to the lotion causing small bumps all over my face and neck, and very itchy red spots. Do not recommend if you have a history of eczema / dermatitis as it really flared up my skin issues.
