• Kit Contains: Quinoa One-Step Balanced Gel Cleanser (8ml), Daily Purifying Treatment Toner (5ml), Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum (5ml), Complete No-Stress Physical Sunscreen SPF 50+ PA++++ (5ml).

This kit provides your full core routine. Here’s how to use it for immediate results:

AM (Morning) ☀️

1. Step 1: Cleanse with the Quinoa Gel Cleanser.
2. Step 2: Tone with the Daily Purifying Treatment Toner.
3. Step 3: Treat with the Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum.
4. Step 4: Protect with the Complete No-Stress Physical Sunscreen.

PM (Evening) 🌙

1. Step 1: Cleanse with the Quinoa Gel Cleanser.
2. Step 2: Tone with the Daily Purifying Treatment Toner.
3. Step 3: Treat with the Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum.
4. Step 4: Moisturise with your favorite night cream (a separate moisturiser is needed for the PM).

Use this routine daily (AM & PM, except for sunscreen which is AM only) to see the best results.

• 1. Quinoa One-Step Balanced Gel Cleanser (8ml):
  • Amount: A small bean-sized amount.
  • Method: Lather with water and gently massage onto your face for 30-60 seconds. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
• 2. Daily Purifying Treatment Toner (5ml):
  • Amount: 2-3 drops onto a cotton pad or into your palms.
  • Method: Gently sweep across the face, focusing on the T-zone and areas with breakouts. Avoid the immediate eye and lip area.
• 3. Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum (5ml):
  • Amount: 1-2 drops for the entire face.
  • Method: Apply to the face and gently pat until absorbed. You can apply an extra small drop directly onto stubborn dark spots.
• 4. Complete No-Stress Physical Sunscreen (5ml):
  • Amount: Use a generous amount for the face and neck (at least a nickel-sized dollop from a mini tube).
  • Method: Apply as the final step of your AM routine, 15 minutes before sun exposure. Pat gently for best absorption and to minimise white cast.

• Immediately: Skin feels clean, refreshed, and hydrated. The sunscreen provides a soft, non-greasy finish with a subtle tone-up effect.
• After 2-4 Weeks: You may notice a reduction in active breakouts and inflammation due to the toner. Skin may appear brighter and more radiant as the serum begins to work.
• After 4-8+ Weeks: With consistent daily use and diligent sun protection, you should see a visible reduction in the appearance of dark spots and a more even overall skin tone.

Note: Results vary based on the individual, the severity of the hyperpigmentation, and consistency of use, especially sunscreen application.

• Works Well With: This kit is a self-contained routine. For your PM routine, you can pair it with most hydrating or barrier-supporting moisturisers. Ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid, Snail Mucin, Centella Asiatica, and Ceramides will complement this routine perfectly.
• Use With Caution: If you use other strong actives like high-concentration Vitamin C, other AHAs, or retinoids, it's best to alternate their use with this routine to avoid over-exfoliation. For example, use the AXIS-Y toner one night, and your retinoid the next night.
• Avoid: Using harsh physical scrubs or other salicylic acid treatments at the same time as the Daily Purifying Treatment Toner, as this could lead to irritation.

• ✅ Oily & Combination Skin: An excellent fit. The routine is designed to control sebum, clear pores, and provide lightweight hydration that won't feel heavy in Mauritius's humidity.
• ✅ Acne-Prone Skin: Highly suitable. The toner's salicylic acid and tea tree help manage breakouts, while the serum's niacinamide fades the post-acne marks left behind.
• 🟡 Normal Skin: Good for those whose main concern is achieving a brighter, more even tone. You may find you need an additional hydrating layer or a richer PM moisturiser.
• 🟡 Sensitive Skin: Proceed with a patch test. While the ingredients are generally soothing, the toner contains salicylic acid and alcohol which could be sensitising for some. The physical sunscreen is often a good choice for sensitive skin.
• ❌ Very Dry Skin: This routine may not be hydrating enough. The toner, in particular, might feel stripping. A routine focused more on hyaluronic acid and ceramides would be a better fit.

• Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH): The core target. The Dark Spot Serum's 5% Niacinamide is clinically effective at fading the brown or dark marks left by acne.
• Uneven Skin Tone & Dullness: The combination of gentle exfoliation from the toner and brightening from the serum helps to restore radiance and create a more uniform complexion.
• Active Acne & Clogged Pores: The Daily Purifying Toner uses Salicylic Acid (BHA) to deep clean pores and Centella + Tea Tree to calm active breakouts.
• Sun Protection: The Complete No-Stress Physical Sunscreen provides broad-spectrum SPF 50+ PA++++ protection to prevent sun damage and stop existing dark spots from getting darker.

• Brand: AXIS-Y
• Origin: Seoul, South Korea
• Kit Name: The Mini Glow Set
• Authenticity: Sourced directly from authorised distributors in South Korea. We guarantee 100% genuine products.
• Shelf Life & PAO: Check individual product packaging for the Period After Opening (PAO) symbol (e.g., "12M" for 12 months). Unopened, products are typically good for 24-36 months from the manufacturing date (제조).

• Halal Status: This kit is not fully Halal-friendly. While the cleanser, serum, and sunscreen are formulated without alcohol (ethanol/denat.), the Daily Purifying Treatment Toner contains a small amount of Alcohol in its formulation. All products are free from non-halal animal derivatives.
• Vegan Status: ✅ Certified Vegan. All products in this kit are certified by the Korea Vegan Certification and Certification Union and are free from any animal-derived ingredients.

• Protection Rating: SPF 50+ PA++++ (Independently tested and verified in South Korea).
• UV Filters: Physical (Mineral) Filters only.
  • Zinc Oxide (Non-Nano): Provides broad-spectrum protection against UVA and UVB rays.
  • Titanium Dioxide (Non-Nano): Provides excellent protection against UVB rays.
• Amount for Face & Neck: The "two-finger rule" is a good guide. For this mini tube, you'll need a generous squeeze to ensure adequate coverage. Don't be shy with application!
• Reapplication Rules: In Mauritius's high UV index, reapply at least every 2 hours when outdoors, or more frequently after swimming, heavy sweating, or towel drying.
• White Cast: As a physical sunscreen, it may have a slight initial white cast or tone-up effect, which typically settles and blends after a few minutes of patting. On deeper skin tones, the cast may be more noticeable. Applying it over a well-hydrated base can help it blend more seamlessly.

EU Allergen Disclosure: The toner contains Linalool, which is a potential allergen derived from the essential oils. Always perform a patch test if you have known sensitivities to essential oils.

Who Should Use With Caution:

• Individuals with very sensitive skin or a compromised skin barrier should introduce the Daily Purifying Treatment Toner slowly (e.g., 2-3 times a week) due to the presence of Salicylic Acid and Alcohol.
• If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it's generally recommended to consult with your doctor before using products containing Salicylic Acid (BHA), although the low concentration (0.5%) in the toner is often considered safe for topical use.

Patch Test Protocol:

1. Apply a small amount of each product to a discreet area, like behind your ear or on your inner arm.
2. Wait 24-48 hours to check for any signs of irritation, such as redness, itching, or burning.
3. If no reaction occurs, the products are likely safe for you to use on your face. Start by introducing them one at a time over a few days.

This kit is exceptionally well-suited for the Mauritian climate.

• Humid Summers: The lightweight gel cleanser, watery toner, and glow serum provide effective treatment without feeling heavy or sticky. The physical sunscreen offers robust protection that is less likely to feel greasy in high humidity.
• Drier/Cooler Winters or AC Environments: You may find the need to add a slightly more substantial PM moisturiser after the serum to lock in hydration and prevent dryness from air conditioning.
• Sun Protection: The high SPF and PA rating are essential for Mauritius's year-round high UV index. Remember to reapply every 2 hours if you're outdoors, swimming, or sweating heavily.

At Adilsons, we guarantee that every product is 100% authentic. This AXIS-Y set is sourced directly from the brand's authorised distributors in South Korea. You can verify authenticity through the unique holographic seal on the outer packaging of full-size products.

This mini set is designed for trial and travel.

• Estimated Duration: With daily use as recommended, the set should last approximately 1 to 2 weeks. This is enough time to get a feel for the textures and see initial calming and brightening effects.
• Cost-per-Use: This kit is a cost-effective way to test a full 4-step routine. It allows you to ensure the products work for your skin before investing in the full-size versions.
• Reorder Cadence: If you love the results, you can purchase the full-size products. The full-size serum (50ml), for example, will last approximately 3-4 months with daily use.

This kit is a fantastic start. Once you're ready to commit to full sizes or enhance your routine, consider these in-stock products:

The "Glow Up" Full-Size Bundle

• For Trying Different Brightening Actives: Beauty of Joseon Hanbang Serum Discovery Kit — Choose this if you want to experiment with various traditional Korean herbal ingredients for concerns like brightening, calming, and glow, rather than a single fixed routine.
• For a More Potent Dark Spot Treatment: Anua NIACINAMIDE 10% + TXA 4% Dark Spot Correcting Serum — Choose this if your primary concern is stubborn hyperpigmentation or melasma and your skin already tolerates active ingredients well. This serum offers a higher concentration of Niacinamide plus Tranexamic Acid.
  • Pair it with: ROUND LAB 1025 Dokdo Cleanser for a gentle cleanse and your favourite sunscreen.

Mindful Use Reminder: If you already have comparable products at home, we encourage you to finish them first to avoid waste and give your skin a chance to show results from a consistent routine.

• Packaging: The products come in small, plastic squeeze tubes and bottles, housed in a recyclable cardboard box. The mini sizes are perfect for air travel carry-on luggage.
• Storage: To preserve the integrity of the active ingredients, store the kit in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat, like a bedroom drawer or cabinet. Avoid storing it in a steamy bathroom.
• Recycling: Please rinse the empty plastic containers before placing them in your recycling bin. The outer cardboard box is fully recyclable.

Many users on Reddit's r/AsianBeauty (2024 thread) praise it as the best way to test the full AXIS-Y line before committing to the more expensive full sizes.
• The Effective: An Amazon customer (2024-02) with combination, acne-prone skin reported, "This set calmed my skin down and the glow serum is not a joke. My skin looks brighter and the dark marks on my cheeks have faded noticeably."
• The Caveat: Some users with deeper skin tones have noted that the physical sunscreen can leave a noticeable white cast if not patted in thoroughly. A Reddit user mentioned (2023-11), "I love the routine but the sunscreen is a bit too white for my liking, I use a chemical one instead."

• Niacinamide: A form of Vitamin B3 that helps brighten skin, regulate oil production, minimize pores, and strengthen the skin's barrier.
• BHA (Beta Hydroxy Acid): An oil-soluble exfoliant, most commonly Salicylic Acid. It's effective at penetrating pores to clear out excess oil and dead skin cells.
• Physical Sunscreen: Also called mineral sunscreen. It uses minerals like Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide to sit on top of the skin and physically block or reflect UV rays.
