AHC launches new brightening line
THE Unilever-owned Korean beauty brand AHC has launched a new line targeted for those who want brighter skin — the line can “improve skin pigmentation and reduce [dark] spots in just four weeks,” it promises in a release.
The new products join the previously available lines from AHC: the anti-aging line 365 and the hydrating Aqualuronic line.
Called Peony Bright, it includes five products — a foam cleanser (P1,699 for 40 ml), a toner (P1,799 for 150 ml), a serum (P2,099 for 140 ml), a spot corrector (P1,700 for 20 ml), and toning up cream (P2,449 for 50 ml).
The latter is a cream that is used at the end of one’s skin care routine (after moisturizers, if you use them) and is meant to brighten and even out one’s skin tone before applying makeup.
The line caters to people with oily or combination skin with a focus on problematic skin because of the spot corrector.
AHC — a brand that has gained popularity due to its availability in high-end aesthetic clinics in South Korea — uses pink peony flowers from Gangwon province, “the cleanest region in Korea that is famed for its pristine beauty,” according to the release.
The flowers are picked, aged, and fermented before the extraction of the active ingredients meant to brighten the skin.
AHC is available in several online stores nationwide. The prices stated are from Watsons.com.ph.
