*Self-assessed by Adilsons based on available ingredient data (no ethanol/denat.; PDRN is derived from fish, which is permissible).

Dealing with skin that feels stressed, red, or easily irritated can be frustrating. This advanced K-beauty toner is formulated as a first-response solution, combining the reparative power of Salmon PDRN with the legendary calming properties of Centella Asiatica to soothe discomfort, strengthen your skin's barrier, and restore a healthy, balanced complexion.

This is a reparative and deeply soothing toner designed to calm sensitivity, reduce redness, and strengthen the skin barrier. It uses Salmon PDRN and Centella Asiatica to promote healing and provide intense hydration without stickiness.

• Best for: Sensitive, combination, normal, or acne-prone skin experiencing redness, irritation, or a compromised barrier.
• What to expect: An immediate feeling of calm and hydration. Over several weeks, expect a visible reduction in redness and a more resilient, even-toned complexion.
• Texture: A clear, lightweight, watery liquid that absorbs quickly.
• Scent: Fragrance-free, with a very subtle, clean, natural scent.

1. Cleanse: Start with a clean face.
2. Apply Toner: Pour a small amount of the HEVEBLUE Toner into your palms and gently pat onto your face and neck until absorbed.
3. Seal & Protect: Follow with your favorite sunscreen in the morning or a moisturizer in the evening.

Mindful Tip: If you already own a hydrating toner, finish it first before starting this one to avoid waste. You can substitute this into your existing routine.

A morning routine with this toner focuses on calming, hydrating, and protecting your skin for the day ahead.

Minimalist Routine (3 Steps):

1. Cleanser: Wash your face with a gentle, low-pH cleanser.
2. HEVEBLUE Salmon Caring Centella Toner: Apply to soothe and hydrate the skin, preparing it for the next step.
3. Sunscreen: Finish with a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher). This is the most critical step to protect your skin and prevent further irritation.

Optional Additions:

• Antioxidant Serum: You can apply a Vitamin C or other antioxidant serum before the toner for extra environmental protection.
• Moisturiser: If your sunscreen isn't hydrating enough for you, apply a lightweight moisturiser after the toner and before your SPF.

Your evening routine is the perfect time to focus on repair and barrier support, allowing the toner's key ingredients to work overnight.

Minimalist Routine (3 Steps):

1. Double Cleanse: Start with an oil-based cleanser to melt away sunscreen and makeup, followed by a water-based cleanser.
2. HEVEBLUE Salmon Caring Centella Toner: Apply generously to replenish hydration and calm any inflammation from the day.
3. Moisturiser: Seal everything in with a nourishing moisturiser to support your skin's overnight repair process.

Optional Additions:

• Targeted Serum: Apply a treatment serum (like a retinoid or peptide serum) after the toner and before your moisturiser to address specific concerns like wrinkles or texture.
• Sleeping Pack: For very dry or compromised skin, use a sleeping pack as the final step 2-3 times a week for an intensive moisture boost.

• Amount: Dispense a coin-sized amount (about 2-3 shakes) into your palms, or enough to lightly saturate a cotton pad.
• Method 1 (Patting): Pour into clean hands and gently pat onto your face and neck until absorbed. This method is gentle and minimizes waste.
• Method 2 (Wiping): Apply to a cotton pad and gently wipe across your face, starting from the center and moving outwards. This provides very light exfoliation.
• Frequency: Use daily, both morning (AM) and evening (PM), after cleansing.
• DIY Mask: For extra soothing, soak a few cotton pads with the toner and place them on irritated areas (like cheeks or forehead) for 5-10 minutes as a calming mini-mask.

This is a gentle, daily-use toner. Its primary role is to hydrate and calm, making it an excellent buffer when you use stronger active ingredients.

• Daily Use: You can and should use this toner every morning (AM) and every evening (PM).

Example PM Routine with Other Actives:

• Monday (Exfoliation): Cleanser → Exfoliating Acid (AHA/BHA) → HEVEBLUE Toner → Moisturiser.
• Tuesday (Retinoid): Cleanser → HEVEBLUE Toner → Retinoid Serum → Moisturiser.
• Wednesday (Recovery): Cleanser → HEVEBLUE Toner → Hydrating Serum → Moisturiser.

Rule of Thumb: Because this toner is soothing, you can use it on the same nights as your exfoliants or retinoids. Applying it before your active can help hydrate and prepare the skin, potentially reducing irritation.

• Immediately: Skin feels instantly hydrated, soothed, and refreshed. Any feeling of tightness after cleansing is relieved.
• After 2-4 Weeks: You may notice a visible reduction in persistent redness and inflammation. Skin feels calmer and less reactive to external stressors.
• After 4-8+ Weeks: With consistent use, your skin barrier becomes stronger and more resilient. Skin texture appears smoother, and the overall complexion looks more balanced and healthy.

Individual results may vary. Consistent daily use and sun protection are key to achieving the best results.

• Myth: "Irritated skin needs a strong, alcohol-based toner to 'disinfect' it."
• Reality: Alcohol-based toners strip the skin's natural oils, damaging the moisture barrier and causing more irritation and redness. A gentle, hydrating toner like this one calms inflammation and helps the barrier heal, which is what truly restores skin health.

• ✅ Works Well With: This toner is designed to be compatible with almost all skincare ingredients. It's excellent for layering with active ingredients like Vitamin C, Retinoids (Retinol/Retinal), and Exfoliating Acids (AHA/BHA), as its soothing properties can help buffer potential irritation. It also pairs perfectly with hydrating ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid and barrier-repair ingredients like Ceramides and Peptides.
• ⚠️ Use with Caution: While compatible with most ingredients, always introduce new products one at a time to monitor your skin's reaction. If you are layering multiple new serums, it can be hard to tell what might be causing an issue.

• Sensitive Skin: Excellent. Formulated specifically to soothe irritation and reduce redness.
• Combination Skin: Excellent. Provides lightweight hydration that won't feel heavy on oily areas while comforting drier patches.
• Normal Skin: Excellent. A perfect daily toner to maintain skin health and hydration.
• Oily & Acne-Prone Skin: Very good. It helps calm inflammation from breakouts and provides oil-free hydration.
• Dry Skin: Good. It provides a great hydrating base layer but should be followed by a richer serum and cream to lock in moisture.

• Redness & Irritation: Calms inflammation and reduces visible redness with Centella Asiatica.
• Compromised Skin Barrier: Strengthens the skin's natural defenses, making it less reactive and sensitive over time.
• Dehydration: Provides a deep, watery layer of hydration to relieve tightness and plump the skin.
• Post-Breakout Healing: The reparative properties of PDRN and Centella help skin recover more gracefully after breakouts.
• Early Signs of Aging: Supports skin regeneration and hydration, which can help soften the appearance of fine lines.

This product is formulated for sensitive skin, but a patch test is always recommended when introducing any new product to your routine.

Patch Test Protocol:

1. Apply a small, pea-sized amount of the toner to a clean, discrete area of skin, such as behind your ear or on your inner wrist.
2. Wait 24 hours to observe for any signs of irritation, such as redness, itching, or burning.
3. If no reaction occurs, you can proceed with applying it to your face. If you have extremely sensitive skin, consider repeating the test for a second day.

Safety Precautions:

• For external use only.
• Avoid direct contact with eyes. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
• Discontinue use if a rash, redness, or itching occurs. Consult a doctor if irritation persists.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• Pregnancy & Breastfeeding: There is insufficient published data on the topical use of PDRN during pregnancy or breastfeeding. It is best to consult with your doctor before use.

• Texture: A clear, thin, watery liquid. It feels just like water but with a slight slip.
• Feel on Skin: Absorbs instantly with no greasy or sticky residue. Leaves skin feeling refreshed, hydrated, and soft.
• Finish: Natural, skin-like finish. Does not leave a dewy or matte film.
• pH: Approximately 5.5 - 6.0 (mildly acidic to align with the skin's natural pH).
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Suitability: Based on an ingredient review, this formula appears to be suitable for those with fungal acne concerns, as it does not contain triggering oils or esters. However, individual responses can vary.

• Issue: My skin still feels a bit dry after using it.
  Solution: This is a hydrating toner, not a final moisturizer. Ensure you are following up with a suitable cream or lotion to lock in the hydration, especially if you have dry skin or are in an air-conditioned environment.
• Issue: The product feels slightly tacky for a moment.
  Solution: You may be using too much. A small, coin-sized amount is sufficient. Gently pat the product into the skin until it's fully absorbed before applying your next step.

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

• Humid Summers: Its lightweight, watery texture feels refreshing and won't contribute to a sticky or heavy feeling on the skin. It provides essential hydration without adding oiliness.
• Drier Winters & Air-Conditioning: It serves as an excellent first layer of hydration to combat the drying effects of indoor air conditioning or the less humid winter air. Be sure to layer a good moisturizer on top.
• After Sun Exposure: The calming properties of Centella and the reparative nature of PDRN make it a perfect after-sun soother to reduce redness and help skin recover from UV stress.

The formulation of this toner relies on well-researched ingredients known for their skin benefits.

• Salmon PDRN (Ingredient Rationale): Polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN) has been studied extensively in clinical settings for its wound-healing and anti-inflammatory properties. Research published in journals like the *Archives of Craniofacial Surgery* has shown that PDRN promotes tissue repair by stimulating cell growth factors and angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels), which accelerates healing and improves skin quality.
• Centella Asiatica (Independent Study): A study in the journal *Molecules* found that Madecassoside, a key active compound in Centella, can significantly improve skin hydration, elasticity, and reduce inflammation by modulating the skin's immune response and supporting collagen synthesis. This makes it highly effective for repairing a compromised skin barrier.

• Size: 200ml
• Typical Dose: ~2ml per application
• Total Uses: Approximately 100 applications per bottle.

Reorder Cadence:

• If used once daily, the bottle will last approximately 100 days (over 3 months).

Aggregated sentiment from verified online reviews. Note: Individual results can vary.

"This toner is a lifesaver for my sensitive, redness-prone skin. I used to flush easily, but after using this for a month, my skin is so much calmer. It feels like water but is surprisingly hydrating."

— Reddit, r/AsianBeauty (thread 2024-08)

A YesStyle customer review (2024-07) noted its effectiveness on post-acne redness, stating it helped red marks fade faster than usual without any stinging. They praised its lightweight feel, which was perfect for their combination skin in a humid climate.

One fair caveat comes from an Amazon review (2024-06), where the user mentioned that while the product is unscented, they could detect a very faint "marine" or "mineral" smell initially, which they attributed to the salmon-derived ingredients. They noted it wasn't unpleasant and disappeared instantly, but was something to be aware of if you are extremely sensitive to any natural scents.

HEVEBLUE is a modern Korean skincare brand that combines potent, scientifically-backed ingredients with gentle, nature-derived extracts. Their philosophy centers on creating effective solutions for common skin concerns by focusing on high-quality formulations that respect the skin's natural balance. They are known for leveraging innovative ingredients like PDRN alongside trusted botanicals to deliver visible results without irritation.

PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide)

A DNA fragment, often derived from salmon, known to promote skin cell regeneration, reduce inflammation, and accelerate healing.

Centella Asiatica (Cica)

A medicinal herb famous for its soothing, anti-inflammatory, and wound-healing properties. Excellent for calming sensitive or irritated skin.

MFDS

We guarantee every product is 100% authentic, sourced directly from brands and their authorized distributors in South Korea. Your skin's health and your trust are our top priorities.

Is the salmon ingredient noticeable or smelly?
No. The PDRN is a highly purified extract and the final product is formulated to be odorless. Some users with a very sensitive nose might detect a faint mineral or marine note that disappears instantly, but it does not have a "fishy" smell.

Can I use this toner if I have oily skin?
Yes, absolutely. Its watery texture provides essential hydration without adding any oil or greasiness, which can help balance sebum production over time. It's also excellent for calming the inflammation associated with acne breakouts.

Is PDRN ethically sourced?
Yes. The PDRN used in cosmetics is typically sourced from salmon DNA that is a byproduct of the food industry, ensuring that no fish are harvested solely for this ingredient. It is a way of utilizing the entire resource sustainably.

How is this different from a regular hydrating toner?
While it is very hydrating, its primary function is repair and soothing. It goes beyond simple hydration by incorporating active ingredients (PDRN and Centella) that help heal a compromised barrier, reduce redness, and promote skin regeneration, making it a treatment toner.

• Best For: Individuals with sensitive, reactive, or redness-prone skin who need a toner that actively calms and repairs the skin barrier.
• Key Benefits: Visibly reduces redness, provides lightweight hydration, and accelerates skin healing and regeneration.
• Keep in Mind: It is not a standalone moisturizer; those with dry skin will need to layer a cream on top. It is also not a vegan product due to the salmon-derived PDRN.

• Coverage: Island-wide delivery (Mauritius).
• Processing & Timing: Orders process in 1–2 business days. Delivery typically takes 1–5 business days after pickup by our partners.
• Scheduling: Deliveries are scheduled by region; we will contact you the evening before your delivery day.
• Pickup: Available at Citadelle Mall, Port Louis.
