Regardless of whether you struggle with acne or the occasional pimples, Innisfree’s Bija Cica Balm EX is the spot treatment for you.

Innisfree’s #GoPlump challenge — which promotes their Green Tea Seed Hyaluronic Serum — blew up when Jang Wonyoung took part in it. ICYMI, the original TikTok video amassed over 2.9 million likes and 27.6 million views.
While many fans bought the product to support the fourth-gen It-girl, they ended up incorporating the product into their skincare routine after realising its benefits. FYI, the serum contains extract from a new green tea variety that Innisfree specially cultivated — it’s meant to be more moisturising than regular green tea.
For girlies who want clear skin like K-pop idols: Seonghwa from Ateez also shared on a livestream that he uses this serum frequently.

If you struggle with acne, blemish scars and hyperpigmentation, check out Innisfree’s Retinol Repair Cica Ampoule.
For the unacquainted, ampoules are basically concentrated serums. However, one should use ampoules sparingly unlike serums which can be applied daily. Spring out these skin treatments in times of skin emergencies, or if you need to turn up the glow for a big day.
Since the product contains retinol — a type of vitamin A — it can also help to address concerns like enlarged pores and ageing skin.

Though toners and essences have similar consistencies, they serve different purposes. While toners balance the pH level of your skin and prepare it for your skincare routine, essences nourish and treat your skin.
Innisfree’s Black Tea Youth Enhancing Treatment contains a unique black tea extract that’s mixed with eight kinds of peptides to increase skin turnover and slow down ageing. Packed with antioxidants, the essence also stimulates collagen production to plump up your skin.

Made with volcanic clusters from Jeju, Innisfree’s Super Volcanic Pore Mask is great for absorbing sebum and impurities from your skin. What’s more, since it contains both AHA and volcanic ash particles, the mask acts as a chemical and physical exfoliant to remove dead skin cells and even out your skin texture.
The Super Volcanic Pore Clay Mask also doubles as an overnight spot treatment, so you won’t need to spend on a pimple cream. Talk about killing two birds with one stone.

Considering Singapore’s weather, sunscreen is a must. But, let’s admit it, a large majority of us do not reapply sunscreen throughout the day. That’s valid though — I mean, who has the time?
With Innisfree’s Intensive Long-Lasting Sunscreen, you can rest assured that your face will be protected from harsh UV rays for up to eight hours. According to the brand, the product is extremely waterproof, perfect for outdoor activities and playing sports.

Multipurpose products always steal my heart, and Innisfree’s No-Sebum Mineral Powder is no exception. Since 12 units of the product are sold every minute, I’m sure many people share the same sentiment.
Besides acting as a loose powder to absorb excess oil and give your skin a smooth and matte finish, the powder can also be used as a dry shampoo, eye makeup primer, and skincare fixer — to get rid of that icky feeling after applying sunscreen.

As Singaporeans, we all love saving money. If you’ve been debating whether to buy the Dior Addict Lip Glow, consider purchasing Innisfree’s Dewy Tint Lip Balm instead. Though both products look and feel similar, the Dewy Tint Lip Balm is much more affordable.
The Dewy Tint Lip Balm comes in five colours — Baby Pink, Melon Coral, Love Beige, Rose Brick, and Power Cherry. Moreover, it is also infused with hyaluronic acid to hydrate your lips and make them look fuller.

Hair can make or break your look. If you’re fed up with bad hair days ruining your #OOTD, check out Innisfree’s My Hair Recipe Essential Oil Serum.
To combat dry and frizzy hair, the hair serum contains camellia leaf extract for hydration, and camellia oil to boost the shine of your hair, and increase its nutrient retention.
According to reviews, only a little bit of the product is needed to tame unruly hair, so a 100ml bottle will be able to last you a long time.
