Hada Labo, one of Japan’s leading skin care brands, is finally in the Philippines. Known for providing intense hydration to the skin by harnessing the power of hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance naturally occurring in the human body that attracts and binds water, Hada Labo promises to improve the appearance and texture of various skin types.

Formulated with Japan’s upgraded formula and High Performance Penetration and Deep Moisturizing (HPP&M), Hada Labo actively infuses four types of HA to fully hydrate skin from surface to inner skin layers for significantly soft, smooth and supple skin.

Hada Labo will be bringing in its cult favorite, the Hada Labo Hydrating Lotion, which combines different types and sizes of HA in the best ratio ever to achieve best moisturizing efficacy, and prepare skin for enhanced absorption of skincare ingredients. Hada Labo Hydrating Lotion is fragrance-free and has balanced pH levels and a refreshing texture to minimize skin irritation.

The multi-awarded Hada Labo Hydrating Lotion has been the No. 1 facial lotion in Japan for 12 consecutive years now, and has sold over 55 million units in that country alone. Sales across Asia has become so successful that the brand has become one of the top three drugstore skincare brands in Taiwan, Singapore, and Malaysia.

In the Japanese skincare routine, lotions are used before the moisturizer and after the toner. For those who do not apply toner after cleansing, the lotion adds a light layer of moisture that serves as a base for the richer products applied later on.
