The New Brightening Duo: Unveiling Luminous Skin
The “TWANY Brightening Lotion N” and “TWANY Brightening Emulsion N” (both quasi-drugs) are infused with a potent Vitamin C derivative (L-Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside), an active ingredient known to suppress melanin formation and prevent the appearance of spots and freckles. Beyond this, TWANY has incorporated its proprietary blend, “Moist MSH Guard (moisturizing),” and “New Botanical Essence (moisturizing),” alongside Kanebo Cosmetics’ unique “Balance Clear C (moisturizing)” complex. These components work synergistically to penetrate the stratum corneum, delivering hydration and fostering a translucent, radiant skin condition.
TWANY Brightening Lotion N
This brightening lotion is crafted to inhibit melanin production, prevent spots and freckles, and deeply moisturize the stratum corneum. It is available in three types to suit various skin preferences:
-
Type I (Refreshing): Offers a light, fresh sensation for dewy hydration.
-
Type II (Moist): Provides a smooth feel for rich, moist hydration.
-
Type III (Very Moist): Delivers a mellow texture for plump, abundant moisture.
Each 180mL bottle is priced at 5,830 yen (tax included), with refills available for 5,500 yen (tax included). The lotion is fragrance-free and colorant-free, and also helps soothe skin after sun or snow exposure, preventing dryness.
- Usage: After cleansing or applying a pre-serum, dispense three pumps (approx. 3mL) onto hands or a cotton pad and gently pat onto the skin. Pay extra attention to areas prone to spots and freckles.
TWANY Brightening Emulsion N
This brightening emulsion works to inhibit melanin production, prevent spots and freckles, and lock in moisture within the stratum corneum. It comes in two types:
-
Type I (Refreshing): Offers a smooth sensation to maintain fresh hydration.
-
Type II (Moist): Provides a rich, creamy feel to preserve abundant moisture.
Each 100mL bottle is priced at 6,930 yen (tax included), with refills available for 6,600 yen (tax included). Like the lotion, it is fragrance-free and colorant-free, and helps calm skin after sun or snow exposure, preventing dryness.
- Usage: After conditioning the skin with lotion, dispense one pump (approx. 1mL) and gently smooth over the entire face. Focus on areas susceptible to spots and freckles.
The Power of Unique Formulations
The new brightening line features several meticulously developed complexes:
-
Moist MSH Guard (Moisturizing): TWANY’s unique complex, combining Centella Asiatica Extract, Citrus Unshiu Peel Extract, Yeast Extract-4, and BG. These ingredients work together to enhance the skin’s moisture barrier.
-
Balance Clear C (Moisturizing): Kanebo Cosmetics’ proprietary complex, featuring Sambucus Nigra Extract, Eugenia Caryophyllus (Clove) Flower Extract, and Algae Extract-1. This blend supports skin clarity and balance.
-
New Botanical Essence (Moisturizing): Another unique TWANY complex, including Prunus Serrulata Leaf Extract, Hymenocardia Acida Extract, Swertia Japonica Extract, Zanthoxylum Piperitum Peel Extract, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, and BG. This botanical blend is designed to deeply nourish and hydrate.
The 3-Step Radiance Ritual
TWANY’s approach to beautiful skin emphasizes a three-step regimen for stratum corneum care. By using the new Brightening Lotion N and Brightening Emulsion N in conjunction with the “TWANY Time Refresher,” the skin is guided towards a state of transparent firmness, brimming with moisture.
Introducing TWANY Time Refresher
Launched in October 2024, the “TWANY Time Refresher” is an introductory beauty serum that continuously hydrates the skin, even during the day when dryness is often felt. It helps the skin feel plump and firm.
This serum (60mL, 5,500 yen including tax; refill 5,280 yen including tax) works by retaining moisture within the keratin fibers, which constitute about 80% of stratum corneum proteins. It provides rich hydration to skin affected by external stressors like UV rays and dryness, maintaining a healthy texture. As the thick serum is massaged into the skin, it transforms into a pack, allowing moisture to deeply penetrate the stratum corneum, resulting in supple, firm skin.
