PRODUCT REVIEW: ROHTO HADA LABO HYALURONIC ACID LOTION - CULT FAVORITE J-BEAUTY TONER FOR DEHYDRATED SKIN
ROHTO HADA LABO | HYALURONIC ACID LOTION
First, I’m not even sure what this product is actually called. I just know it’s a cult J-beauty favorite.
And it’s not entirely because I don’t speak much Japanese beyond a few cuisine related terms, basic greetings — and introducing myself by name: カーマイン.
I picked up a few things when I taught ESL to Japanese students back in LA. My students called me Carmine-sensei (teacher) and dasai (geek). So disrespectful!
And, Tokyo is up there among my fave cities, along with London and NYC.
On Amazon, this unusual J-Beauty Hyaluronic Acid-powered toner is listed as Hada Labo Rohto Hadalabo Gokujun Hyaluronic Lotion Moist.
The Hada Labo Hyaluronic Acid Lotion has been around a while, but I wasn’t paying much attention to it until I was researching forms of Hyaluronic Acid for an upcoming blog.
It’s actually quite an intriguing formula with a surprising velvety texture. The Hada Labo Hyaluronic Acid Lotion has a very tight ingredient list with just 11 ingredients, three of which are forms of HA including Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate and Sodium Hyaluronate.
A high level of Glycerin also helps power its efficacy. It contains no proven skin irritants like fragrance, fragrant plant oils and alcohol.
I love the simplicity and true efficacy of the formula. It just has this otherworldly (dare I say it, alien technology!) feel to it that makes it difficult to put your finger on. There’s no doubt in my mind why this is such a J-Beauty must-have.
