Heartleaf 77 Toner: Lightweight Hydration for Your Routine
Anua's Heartleaf 77 Toner is a watery facial toner formulated with 77% heartleaf water, also known as Houttuynia cordata. It's designed to be incorporated after cleansing as a light first step for hydration and skin preparation.
Its formula combines moisturizing ingredients like glycerin, betaine, and panthenol, along with different forms of hyaluronic acid. The result is a fluid, comfortable texture that applies easily with hands or a cotton pad, without adding a heavy feel to your routine.
A Light Step After Cleansing
The Heartleaf 77 Toner can fit into routines that aim to add hydration before serums and cream. Its format allows it to be applied in one or several thin layers, depending on your texture preference and your skin's condition at any given moment.
Heartleaf is the common name for the plant Houttuynia cordata, a common plant extract in Korean cosmetics. Research on botanical preparations and their effects on skin is promising, although results depend on the specific formulation and do not automatically transfer to all products containing a plant ingredient.
How to Use
- Cleanse your face with a product suitable for your skin.
- Pour a moderate amount of toner into your palms or onto a cotton pad.
- Apply to face and neck with gentle pats, avoiding direct contact with the eyes.
- Continue with serum and moisturizer, if they are part of your routine.
- In the morning, finish with sunscreen as the last step in your facial care.
You can also soak several cotton pads with the product and leave them on specific areas for a few minutes as part of a hydrating treatment. Remove them if you feel discomfort and always follow the instructions on the packaging.
Who It's For
The Heartleaf 77 Toner can be an option for those who enjoy watery textures and are looking for a light hydrating step after cleansing their face. It can be integrated into routines for dry, combination, oily, or sensitive skin, but tolerance is individual and depends on all the ingredients in the formula.
When incorporating a new product, perform a patch test and add them one at a time. If you notice irritation, persistent redness, or discomfort, discontinue use and consult a professional if necessary.
