Naruko Apple Seed & Tranexamic Acid Soothing White Hydra Essence

Naruko's Apple Seed & Tranexamic Acid Soothing White Hydra Essence comes in a 150ml purple plastic bottle with a white screw top cap. I find the colorless liquid to be more similar to that of a toner than an essence, and hence, dispense it onto a cotton pad before sweeping it over my face and neck. The scent is that of lavender.


The bottle comes with a plug which, although troublesome to remove at each use, somehow helps to maintain the freshness of the product.



It contains 3% tranexamic acid which acts to prevent and/or remove pigmentation of the skin such as freckles and sunspots. It also acts as an anti-inflammatory, and is thus helpful for sensitive and acne prone skin. Besides the phytoferulin complex of 11 plant extracts found in Naruko's products, it also contains apple extract, snow fungus extract, sodium hyaluronate, glycerin and vitamin E.


All of Naruko's products come in an unique award-winning box, which was designed in such a way that it can recycled into a pencil case, a pen holder or similar, with just a little craft work.

Here's the instruction sheet that comes with every bottle of the Apple Seed & Tranexamic Acid Soothing White Hydra Essence.


As I did have no use for a pencil case, I chose to convert my original green box into a more colorful one to hold my bottle of the essence instead.


With a more convenient flip top using the velcro dots provided.
