PURITO SKINCARE PRODUCTS: DEEP FOAMING CLEANSER | CENTELLA GREEN LEVEL UNSCENTED SUNSCREEN | CENTELLA UNSCENTED TONER | BOOSTING ESSENCE

THIS POST IS SPONSORED BY PURITO BUT ALL OPINIONS ARE MY OWN.

There are some skincare rituals that are not just a must, but imperative to long-life healthy skin! One of these is sunscreen. I’ve been testing out several different ones during the summer, and finally found, ‘The One.’ Yet there are other essentials to achieving glowing skin. Essence water is literally essential in my skincare regimen as well as a good foaming cleanser. I’m a big supporter of Korean beauty skincare products - been using them since I was a little girl with my mom. In today’s post, I’m sharing a really great K-Beauty brand that has a great line of skincare products, especially their top-selling sunscreen. Continue reading to learn more about these products along with where you can find them!

FERMENTED COMPLEX 94 BOOSTING ESSENCE

The Fermented Complex 94% highly concentrated micro-particles, which are designed to help ingredients penetrate deeper into the skin. This essence has a light and clear texture that help to revitalize dull skin. It contains skin lightening ingredients such as Niacinamide and Adenosine to increase skin elasticity and improve its texture. This product fills the skin with moisture and keeps skin hydrated for a longer time. While toner hydrates the surface of the skin, facial essence adds moisture to the skin from deep within. Traditionally, an essence is used as the first step in treatment. I always apply essence before serum to help better absorb the serum into skin. Definitely gives that bouncy, supple and dewy skin. The boosting essence is a great addition to any skincare routine.

CENTELLA GREEN LEVEL UNSCENTED SUNSCREEN

If you couldn’t use sunscreen because you were put off by its strong scent or because your skin doesn’t take well to natural essential oils, you should try the new PURITO Centella Unscented Sun. Use the highly concentrated super centella and enjoy cica-care with an increased content of madecassoside. The new cica-care enhances the skin barrier to provide better protection from strong ultraviolet rays and external stimuli. The product contains mild and safe ingredients that are EWG Green Level Grades 1 and 2 to avoid side effects of the existing chemical sunscreens such as eye and skin irritation. It doesn’t cause any discomfort, even when applied to sensitive skin. If applying sunscreen before makeup was a burden because of the white cast and the stifling feeling, this sunscreen is the solution for that! Highly recommended for all skin types, but especially sensitive skin.

CENTELLA UNSCENTED TONER

This is an upgraded version of Centella Green Level Calming Toner that does not contain essential oils. I reviewed the scented toner last year, you can find the link here. This toner contains 10% Centella Asiatica Extract and Panthenol soothe and relieve irritated skin. Another ingredient in the toner is Sodium Hyaluronate that attracts moisture and penetrates deep into the skin due to its small molecular structure, nourishing rough skin. With a low pH of 5.5 and alcohol-free properties, this toner can be used on sensitive skin in the first step of your skincare regimen.

FROM GREEN DEEP FOAMING CLEANSER

This cleanser is formulated with natural ingredients and does not contain chemical surfactants such as SLS and SLES, which can cause irritation, making it great for people with all skin types including sensitive skin. It leaves the skin moisturized after cleansing and is great for morning and nighttime use. Keeping skin's acid mantle at the optimal pH of 5.5, this cleanser protects the skin barrier. Fine and rich foam removes impurities from the pores, and the Centella Asiatica Extract strengthens the skin barrier, hence resulting in healthy skin.
