    perfect for brightening sensitive skin

    Such a gentle and soothing product. It absorbs nicely and leaves my skin looking really bright and calm without any irritation. I’ve noticed my skin also looks more balanced and healthy since I started using it. Definitely a new staple in my routine. Love pairing with their cream.

    Unique, heavy-hitter in my skin routine

    Aunu's essence reminds me of specialty toners I've tried from Japanese and Korean brands. It delivers a gush of hydration while balancing skin texture + appearance. Unlike traditional toners, it doesn't strip or overly exfoliate. Have loved adding this to my routine.

    Radiance Booster

    I absolutely love Aunu's Essence. It brightens up my skin and seems to be the product in my routine that packs the biggest punch. I have been getting compliments left and right about my skin since starting in with this product and I feel it has really amped up my skin's radiance and clarity.
