What customers say
Customers find the skincare kit effective and appreciate its excellent value. The kit receives positive feedback for its radiant appearance, smooth texture, and double cleansing duo, with one customer noting its hydrating properties. While some customers report their skin clearing up, others experienced breakouts, and opinions on skin irritation are mixed, with some finding it gentle while others report burning sensations.

The "Customers liked" module was not rendered for this ASIN. No individual review text loaded at capture; the aggregate sentiment above is Amazon's own AI summary.
3. Product Ingredients
This is a multi-item kit, so ingredient coverage is limited. COSDNA was unreachable at capture (Cloudflare interstitial), and Skinsort does not index this kit (it carries single products, not sets). The listing itself exposes no full INCI; only the brand's disclosed hero actives are published. The table below consolidates everything that could be collected.
| Step | Product | Disclosed actives | Brand claim |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Deep Cleansing Oil | Heartleaf (Houttuynia/Centella family) extract | Non-comedogenic; removes makeup, sunscreen, sebum |
| 2 | Foaming Cleanser | Heartleaf powder | Gentle, hydrating, cushiony double-cleanse |
| 3 | TXA Serum | 10% Niacinamide + 4% Tranexamic Acid | Dark-spot care; lightweight, fast-absorbing |
Disclosed actives by step
Count of named hero actives per step, as disclosed by the brand (not a full INCI). A complete ingredient panel could not be assembled because COSDNA was blocked, Skinsort has no kit entry, and Amazon published no ingredient list for the set.
| Channel | Status | Note |
|---|---|---|
| COSDNA | Blocked | Cloudflare interstitial; no search results. |
| Skinsort | Not indexed | Two searches found no kit entry (only single Anua products). |
| Amazon listing | Partial | Hero actives disclosed in bullets/A+; no full INCI. |

Monitoring since Jun 18, 2025. The 3rd Party New current observation ($45.00) is dated Aug 17, 2026 — about 74 days before capture, so it should be re-verified. The all-time low ($36.00) is the genuine bargain on record, 20% under list.

Limitations. (1) Snapshot as of 2026-10-30. (2) Ratings (4,294) count stars, not written reviews. (3) No individual review text loaded; aggregate sentiment is Amazon's own summary. (4) Ingredient analysis is limited to brand-disclosed hero actives — no full INCI available from any accessible channel. (5) Price current observation is ~74 days stale and should be re-verified.
