APLB Hyaluronic Acid Ceramide HA B5 Facial Toner (160ml)

The APLB Hyaluronic Acid Ceramide HA B5 Facial Toner is a hydrating and skin-replenishing toner formulated to restore moisture, strengthen the skin’s barrier, and prepare the skin for subsequent skincare steps. With a blend of key ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and vitamin B5, this toner is suitable for various skin types, especially dry, sensitive, or compromised skin.

Key Ingredients & Benefits:

• Hyaluronic Acid: A powerful humectant that attracts and retains moisture within the skin, promoting plumpness and hydration.
• Ceramides: Lipid molecules that reinforce the skin’s natural barrier, reducing transepidermal water loss (TEWL), and protecting against environmental aggressors.
• Vitamin B5 (Panthenol): Known for its soothing, anti-inflammatory, and healing properties, aiding in skin repair and softness.
• Additional soothing agents: (if present) like glycerin or botanical extracts, further enhancing comfort and hydration.

Research & Scientific Basis:

1. Hydration Enhancement: Hyaluronic acid’s ability to bind water molecules makes it essential in maintaining skin moisture. Studies demonstrate its efficacy in improving skin elasticity and reducing fine lines associated with dryness.
2. Barrier Restoration: Ceramides constitute 50% of the skin’s lipid barrier. Scientific research confirms that topical ceramide application enhances barrier function, especially in compromised or dry skin, leading to better retention of moisture and protection from irritants.
3. Skin Healing & Soothing: Panthenol (Vitamin B5) has been shown to promote skin healing, reduce inflammation, and improve overall skin comfort, making it beneficial for sensitive or irritated skin.

Uses & Indications:

• Primary Use: To hydrate and prep the skin for serums and moisturizers.
• Suitable for: Dry, sensitive, dehydrated, or compromised skin types.
• Additional benefits: Calms irritation, enhances skin elasticity, and reinforces the skin’s natural barrier.

Application Process:

1. Cleansing: Begin with a gentle cleanser appropriate for your skin type to remove dirt, excess oil, and impurities.
2. Toning:
   • Pour a small amount of the toner onto a cotton pad or directly into clean hands.
   • Gently sweep or pat onto the face and neck, avoiding the eye area.
   • Ensure even coverage to maximize hydration and barrier support.
3. Absorption:
   • Allow the toner to fully absorb into the skin for 1-2 minutes.
4. Follow-up Skincare:
   • Apply serums, especially hydrating or barrier-repair formulas containing peptides, niacinamide, or additional hyaluronic acid.
   • Finish with a moisturizer to lock in hydration.
   • Use sunscreen during the day to protect the skin barrier.

Frequency of Use:

• Daily: Morning and evening for optimal hydration and barrier reinforcement.
• Adjust frequency based on skin sensitivity and specific skin concerns.

Storage & Handling:

• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Keep the cap tightly closed after use to prevent contamination.
