While many beauty consumers are used to the idea of skincare moisturizers being rich, thick and creamy, the Missha Super Aqua Ultra Water-Full Clear Cream offers a different take on this concept.
The product is packaged in entirely clear packaging to highlight the fact that consumers may look straight through the moisturizer, which takes the form of a lightweight, gel-like water-based moisturizer. In the oil-free formula, some of the standout ingredients include: baobab tree extracts, glacial water and hyaluronic acid. For use, a light layer of the skincare product is to be applied to the face in an upward motion following one's regular cleansing and toning rituals.
The eye-catching Korean beauty product was recently named a winner in the 2017 Soko Glam Best of K-beauty Awards.
