── The benefits of ikaw oil
ikaw’s oil is made to nourish your skin. It’s not just oil; it’s made of “an original blend that leads the skin to its most ideal state and well-balanced skin structure of a 22-year-old.” Apply it on cleansed skin as the first step of your skincare routine to achieve soft, supple skin.
── The benefits of yourskin lotion
Yourskin lotion is packed with 49 potent ingredients. It’s not only hydrating but also enhances skin immunity and brings out the innate strength of the skin. It’s got a light, water-like texture that is mild and comforting to the skin.
── The benefits of softskin cream
The cream coats the skin to seal in nutrients and hydration. A facial cream is essential to keep your skin nourished and hydrated and strengthen the skin — It’s the ultimate and last step of your skincare routine. We have succeeded in making the cream as lightweight and smooth as ever.
── The benefits of moistskin cleansing oil
Cleansing oil serves the most crucial role in your skincare routine — removing dirt clogging the pores. By thoroughly cleansing the foundation of your skin, it promotes the delivery of the beneficial agents of the skincare products that follow and greatly affects the sensation of your skin. ikaw's cleansing oil is rich in moisturizing ingredients, leaving your skin feeling soft while also effectively cleansing your pores. We highly recommend this product for you to use the most.
── The Role of Ikaw Moist Skin Wash
Our skin produces sweat and sheds old skin cells every day. It’s natural for environmental impurities to accumulate on the skin. That’s why daily cleansing is essential for maintaining healthy skin and achieving a radiant, fine-textured complexion. The key is using “high-quality foam,” which is why Ikaw’s facial cleanser focuses on creating the perfect foam. From its lather, smoothness, and density, to the comforting sensation when applied to the skin, and its thorough rinse—ikaw Moist Skin Wash bestows a remarkable experience with its cleansing and moisturizing power.
── The benefits of softskin cream
Made with a lavish blend that comes close to a serum, it seeks to capture the distinct comforting texture unique to ikaw. The dewy and smooth finish gives the sensation of applying skincare. A completely new UV item has emerged from ikaw—with the concept of “living together with you,” it will make you want to use it every day throughout all seasons while protecting your skin.

ikaw FAQ
-
1 I skimp and use only half a pump of ikaw oil. Would that still be enough to make my skin soft?
Our skin is drier than we think, affected by the environment and seasons. First, it’s crucial to nourish your skin thoroughly so that it doesn’t get dehydrated — and keep skin hydrated from the inside. Therefore, it’s better to use at least 1 pump of the oil for quicker results.
-
2 I only use ikaw oil for my skin, but should I also use other products?
ikaw oil works well on its own, but yourskin lotion and softskin cream each have different benefits and work uniquely. Using all three potent products is the fastest route to well-balanced and healthy skin.
-
3 My skin quenches up yourskin lotion immediately and feels a bit dry afterward.
Because of the lightweight, water-like texture of yourskin lotion, some people — especially those who have been using a heavy moist toner before — find it too light. However, our toner is like a serum, containing 49 potent ingredients. We recommend using a bit more than the suggested amount in the beginning. It’s also important to review the cleanser(s) you currently use as they likely cause the skin to dry out. The toner helps your skin boost its hydration level and become supple from the inside.
-
4 Can I use ikaw oil on a toddler or little kids?
Absolutely, you can use it on them. ikaw oil has been patch tested on babies to adults, and the results have shown that it’s safe for newborns, infants, small children, and older.
-
5 Can I use the products on other parts of the body?
You can use all ikaw skincare products on the face and the entire body. They are made focusing on the face, but they are great to put on the neck, around the collar bones to the chest, breasts, hands, nails, and hips to help improve wrinkles, dullness, stretch marks,and smoothen the skin. It’s also good on the hair — you can apply it before and after blow drying. Our products are unisex, accommodating any age and lifestyle.

6 Is there any solution for when the moistskin cleansing oil leaks?
