I’ve become such a big fan of the new products from AXIS-Y that they launched via their
Water Your Skin campaign.

I’ve been using their Aqua Boosting Essence Toner and their Advanced Aqua Boosting
Ampoule everyday since late fall and my skin looks and feels smooth, supple and healthy, even in the middle of a cold winter day.

This Heartleaf My Type Calming Cream was developed and is part of the same campaign. However, I don’t use it in my current skin care routine.

Let me tell you why.

I love Rovectin products and it’s become one of my favourite Korean skin care brands.

I’ve tried many of them, from Rovectin Clean Lotus Water Cream to Rovectin Skin Essentials Conditioning Cleanser, and found them gentle and effective.
