The hydrating ingredient that you should have known earlier!
The patented hyaluronic acid is the real deal.
“People would go crazy without drinking any water for one day!” I believe this scenario applies to everyone. After all, 70% of the human body is water. Water is related to various cycles of the whole body, but is it enough to just drink more water? Of course not! Because the harsh environment can also damage the health of stratum corneum, such as cold air, ultraviolet, and air pollution. The rapid damage of skin cannot be repaired by drinking water! Therefore, "replenish water" both on the inside and outside is a must.
The workload of skin is not easier than the body. It is very busy providing protection, executing metabolism, renewing, and storing moisture. Therefore, the intercellular lipids, hyaluronic acid, fibroblasts, collagen, elastin, etc. in the stratum corneum, epidermis, and dermis has to stay in healthy condition to perform well. This is the time that water plays a crucial role. Therefore, if you want to have “brightening, anti-aging, firming, elastic, and radiant” result, the requirement is hydrated healthy skin, so the operation of your skin factory can do its work!
“This step” is essential in skincare routine!
Toner is often considered by dermatologists or consumers as a “dispensable” step, but it is absolutely not. The first step of skincare routine is to use “water” to refresh the skin, like a starter to prep skin. Picture this scenario, after cleaning the face, it is a must to start skincare routine within 90 seconds. After 90 seconds, stratum corneum is dry on its surface and it doesn’t absorb heavy skincare products well in this condition. However, it usually takes more than 90 seconds for most people from cleaning face to start daily skincare routine. So, it’s a must to first apply toner to refresh and soften the skin, as a starter.
“Functional Essence” toner has been popular for a while. This kind of skin care products can be used for quick hydration masking, soothing, calming, cooling, conditioning damaged skin, and some functional toner even contains ingredients that are similar to serum such as hyaluronic acid, ceramela, vitamin B3 and provitamin B5, etc. It is not just a marketing stunt while it is indeed to satisfy skin needs at the first step in order to enhance the result of following skincare routine.
Hyaluronic acid is the unrivaled staple with moisturizing power beyond your imagination
There are a lot of moisturizing ingredients, but why a simple ingredient like hyaluronic is always on trend?! More importantly, derma skincare brands and dermatologists still value this ingredient greatly, mainly because hyaluronic acid is the only moisturizing ingredient that can “grab water” besides replenish moisture. It works like moisture absorbers to both water in the environment and skincare products, and one molecule can hold up to 500 to 1000 times of its weight in water. The moisturizing effect for the skin far exceeds anything else you’ve tried, and because the skin itself contains hyaluronic acid, it’s with great affinity for the skin and not sensitized.
DR.WU, which is known as "No.1 Hydrating Expert", launched the first "Intensive Hydrating Serum with Hyaluronic Acid" in 2003 that became a staple among derma skincare, then followed the launch of "Intensive Hydrating Essence Toner with Hyaluronic Acid", which contains exclusive hyaluronic acid with Japanese, German, and France patent. With the recent debut of "Intensive Hydrating Essence toner with Hyaluronic Acid - Light", the original "Intensive Hydrating Essence toner with Hyaluronic Acid" also presents a new packaging.
What is special about this Japanese-German-France Patented Hyaluronic Acid besides that it contains Japan's NASHA-grade macromolecular hyaluronic acid, and the Japanese patented small molecule hyaluronic acid?
With exclusive patent, DR.WU Intensive Hydrating Essence Toner with Hyaluronic Acid utilizes NASHA grade macromolecular hyaluronic acid and Japanese-patented small molecule hyaluronic acid to replenish and lock-in moisture for dry skin. Combined with German-patented hyaluronic acid activator and French-patented hyaluronic acid stimulant, it helps awaken the skin's water retention mechanism and achieves long-lasting hydrating effects. The powerful moisturizing mechanism provides endless hydration!
3 skincare tips and 5 minutes to create glowing skin
Oily or combination skin are usually with abnormal sebum production. During daytime routine, lightweight texture skincare product is what they need the most. It is the right time for "Intensive Hydrating Essence toner with Hyaluronic Acid- Light" during the daytime. This toner has a light and watery texture. In addition to the patented hyaluronic acid, it also contains vitamin B3 to regulate pores and brighten the skin, and Provitamin B5, which can replenish moisturize quickly and soothe dryness. The recommended technique is "layering" or "partial masking".
【Daytime Toner-layering】: You can apply "Light toner" with a cotton pad to gently wipe and pat the skin. The gentle wipe is mainly for secondary cleaning, because during sleep, the skin’s metabolism regenerates cell. At the night, the wiping can take away makeup residual, but the most important is that don’t be stingy with application. Then apply proper amount of light toner on the palm of your hand and directly press it into the skin with your hand to complete the layering technique.
【Daytime partial masking】：You can also apply "Intensive Hydrating Essence toner with Hyaluronic Acid -Light" for masking, especially on the cheeks. It takes about 5 minutes, and then you will find that it’s much easier to apply makeup foundation; it glides on smoothly and sets well, making sure it’s worry free under ultraviolet exposure or in an AC room. The “classic” version is also suitable for layering technique. It has a serum-like molasses texture, and, especially, contains my favorite ingredient, ceramela, which can repair the stratum corneum, prevent dryness and desquamation, maintain hydration and restore to smooth and soft skin.

【Nighttime layering】：First, apply the "light" Intensive Hydrating Essence toner with Hyaluronic Acid with a cotton pad, then use appropriate amount of "classic" version to press into the skin by the palm of your hand, feeling the sufficient moisture level, and let the palms sense the moisturized and plumped texture of the skin; the hands are the most perfect tool to measure this. Although this toner has a molasses texture, it feels silky at first and is absorbed immediately after a few pats. It penetrates quickly into the skin and you can feel the skin texture is hydrated but the surface is not sticky.
But people with mature skin are always worried that "is it enough to just moisturize?” 【My personal moisturizing routine】is: Add "Intensive Hydrating Serum with Hyaluronic Acid", "Extreme Hydrating Cream with Hyaluronic Acid" and my favorite "Intensive Repairing Serum With Squalane". I take a few drops of “Squalane serum” into “Hydrating Serum”, 1 drop in daytime routine, 2 drops at night, and more drops during winter season. At night, I definitely add in the cream. If you don't like heavy texture, you can choose "Extreme Hydrating Cream with Hyaluronic Acid" with moisturizing ingredient as the main formula, it provides deep hydration even to dry, scaling and tight skin.
Of course, don’t miss "Ultimate Hydrating Mask with Hyaluronic Acid" in moisturizing skincare routine. It contains 24ml of moisturizing serum; it’s like applying a full bottle of serum on your face. Also, “French patented compound organic algae” and “Ceramide” are in the formula to enhance the skin's defense ability. This mask uses natural cotton linter essence, which is unique micro-guide cotton with high elasticity and stretch ability to fit face perfectly. It can carry 13 times of its weight in essence, providing the skin full hydration immediately. After use, dry skin is repaired to its radiance, showing plumped and glowing result.
The skincare product line targets moisturizing effect and has water-blue package, which makes people assume that it’s exclusive to young people, and people with mature skin may consider them not suitable for them. It’s not really the case. Be sure to study the ingredients of its formula. No matter what skin type you are, or whether it is sensitive, or that your skin just went through medical treatment, the moisturizing ingredients that your skin really needs are just like human needs to drink water every day. You need it every day! And your skin would go crazy as well when it doesn’t get enough water!
