ANUA Skincare Review: Natural Ingredients for Balanced Beauty

ANUA | Shop BONIIK K-Beauty Trendy Skincare Brands in Australia

Calling all skincare enthusiasts! Brace yourselves for the exciting news we've got to share: ANUA, the current sensation in the world of Korean skincare, has officially landed at BONIIK, and we couldn't be more delighted to introduce this fresh face to our lineup.

Here’s what has got us so excited (and why you should be too) — unlike other K-beauty brands that focus solely on one aspect of facial beauty, ANUA’s approach to skincare takes on a holistic approach, advocating a journey to better skin that goes far beyond topical solutions.

While this concept isn’t new, the difference is ANUA’s commitment to applying this integrative approach to all of its products. ANUA contends that true beauty comes from a healthy lifestyle - the brand’s products are designed to be an integral part of this transformative journey.

Before we jump into our review of the skincare products, let's take a moment to learn a little bit more about the brand ANUA.

ANUA’s Mission: Healthy, Relaxing, and Sustainable Beauty

ANUA | Shop BONIIK K-Beauty Trendy Skincare Brands in Australia

To support this transformative journey that ANUA stands for, it comes bearing four promises that shape its mission: Relaxing, Ingredient-Focused, Simplicity, and Sustainable Partnership. Through these promises, ANUA aims to deliver beauty products with simple formulations composed of natural and healthy ingredients that bring comfort and relaxation to the skin, always aiming for sustainability throughout the production process.

So, are you ready to discover what this new brand has to offer? Let's delve right into a comprehensive review of the most popular products within the ANUA brand.

Review of the Heartleaf 77% Clear Pad

Boasting 70 sheets infused with a robust 77% heartleaf extract, this multitasking wonder is suitable for all skin types, providing a soothing touch that caters specifically to sensitive skin concerns. With the power of Anua's exclusive "Anti-Sebum P" creation, these watery, non-sticky clear pads effectively control sebum production and minimise pores.

And the best part is yet to come: its formulation includes PHA, allowing for gentle exfoliation during the cleansing process to remove dead skin cells and reduce whiteheads and blackheads. The versatility of this product is a standout feature too, as it can also be used as a calming sheet mask by placing it on irritated areas, offering relief and soothing the skin.

Our verdict: The Heartleaf 77% Clear Pad is an easy addition to every daily skin care routine thanks to how suitable the formulation is for almost any skin type. The relief the clear pads offer to irritated or dry skin is also an immediate lifesaver, especially when you don’t have time for a full routine!

Heartleaf 77% Soothing Toner

The ANUA Heartleaf 77% Soothing Toner is the perfect everyday companion for achieving the ideal skincare balance. Crafted with 77% heartleaf extract, it provides care to troubled skin, offering a soothing touch that brings immediate relief to the skin. Its formulation, composed only of no harmful ingredients, contains Apple Fruit Extract and Centella Asiatica (CICA), which gently remove dead skin cells. Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive ones, this toner ensures your skin receives nurturing care with every application. That's a tick in our book!

Our verdict: Good toners are hard to find, and this is definitely one of the good ones. We found the balance of exfoliation and the near-neutral pH balance of 5.5-6 to be very gentle on the skin while still leaving it refreshed and hydrated.

Heartleaf 80% Soothing Ampoule

Crafted with 80% heartleaf extract, this soothing ampoule is a true saviour for troubled complexions. It has a gel-type formula that can calm and treat distressed skin. What sets it apart? Its tight yet non-greasy texture that your skin will drink up in no time, leaving you with a refreshed and revitalised feel. The ANUA Heartleaf 80% Soothing Ampoule will help your skin achieve perfect water-oil balance, granting hydration without any heavy residue to all skin types.

Our verdict: This ampoule solution solves the problem that many other formulas have: an oily texture on the skin after application. The gel formula doesn’t leave any uncomfortable residue. It’s a small thing, but we also liked how quickly the serum was absorbed by the skin, which can save time on getting the rest of your routine later on.

Heartleaf Pore Control Cleansing Oil

ANUA’s Heartleaf Cleansing Oil didn’t gain as much traction as other viral ANUA products at launch, but it has since become one of the favoured choices of the heartleaf line. Primarily a makeup cleanser that specialises in unclogging pores (and even removing blackheads), it works just as well at reducing redness and soothing irritated areas of the skin. In terms of consistency, the oil is less viscous that it looks, making application much easier when massaging into the skin.

Moving on to the ingredient list, there’s a whole list of nourishing plant oils like sunflower, olive, jojoba, and grape, along with soothing plant extracts like turmeric and heartleaf to brighten the skin.

Our verdict: The fact that this cleanser also tackles pore control is a huge plus — after using it, we found it to be almost like a 2-in-1 product. Don’t be surprised if this cleansing oil replaces one or more of your makeup removal favourites.

There's our review of the top four skincare products from ANUA. In a world that can sometimes be chaotic, ANUA invites you to invest in yourself, embrace simplicity, and focus on what truly matters. Shop now and get ready to embark on a journey towards real beauty. Welcome to ANUA, where beauty meets balance.
