What it is
Advanced Lotion is the first step in moisturizing your skin. It contains a vitamin C derivative* that supports the skin's barrier function. Its slightly acidic pH makes it gentle on the skin. This thick lotion instantly penetrates the skin upon contact. It delivers moisture to every corner of the stratum corneum, just as your skin needs it, creating a foundation for moisture. *Ascorbyl glucoside (skin conditioning ingredient) *Packaging may change without notice.

I suffer from severe hay fever, and my usual skincare routine stings, so I started using the serum first. It felt great and the itching subsided, so I was interested in the lotion, too, and ended up buying the whole line and using it all. I thought it might be a little thick and sticky, but it wasn't sticky at all, absorbed quickly, and didn't dry out my skin until morning, which was great!
I started out using just the serum to combat my sensitive skin, but I liked it so much that I started buying the lotion as well. It's slightly thick and gently envelops the skin. I didn't experience any discomfort even before my period, during hay fever, or when lotion would irritate my skin. My mother, whose skin is even more sensitive than mine, also liked it and started using it.
I bought this product because it was recommended by a beautician I trust. My skin gets rough during the change of seasons and hay fever season, and no matter how much I moisturize, it still gets dry. This lotion contains ingredients that support the skin's barrier function, and its slightly acidic pH makes it gentle on the skin, so I was able to use it without any stress, even with my skin in that condition. With continued use, my skin condition has calmed down. I also like how the push-type formula makes it easy to dispense the right amount.
Advanced Lotion: Highly formulated with vitamin C derivatives* to support the skin's barrier function. Its slightly acidic pH makes it gentle on the skin. Its thick texture absorbs easily into the skin. Balance Repair Serum: A pale yellow serum. It provides essential moisture and supports the skin's barrier function in multiple ways. ◎ Moist Skin UV Glow Base: A new serum, UV Base, is the key to beautiful skin, protecting it from UV rays. Its refreshing, emulsion-like texture draws out the skin's natural hydration, leading to beautiful skin. Be sure to check out SKINFONIA's doctor's cosmetics.
It has a refreshing and moisturizing feel and no overpowering scent, which I really like! If it were a little cheaper, I'd definitely buy it again.
