Why is Vitamin C everywhere in skincare? 🍊

Vitamin C is an antioxidant used in skincare formulations to help protect the skin from oxidative stress caused by environmental factors. It is also widely used in routines focused on improving the appearance of dullness and uneven-looking skin tone.

But not every Vitamin C product is the same. The form of Vitamin C, its concentration, the overall formulation and how the product is used all matter.

The ONOS Vitamin C Serum contains:

• Ascorbic Acid — 20%
• Ferulic Acid — 0.5%
• Vitamin E — 0.5%
• Hyaluronic Acid — 1.5%
• Dexpanthenol — 1%

Each ingredient has a role in the formulation, and individual results can vary.

Brightening and whitening are not the same thing. 🌿

Brightening skincare focuses on the appearance of dullness and uneven-looking skin tone. Ingredients such as glycolic acid, lactic acid and niacinamide are commonly used in formulations designed around skin texture and overall tone.

Whitening, on the other hand, implies making the skin lighter. That is a different goal and lighter skin is not inherently healthier or better.

Your natural skin colour is not a flaw that needs fixing. Skincare should be about caring for your skin, supporting its health and helping it look its best without unrealistic promises.

For example, ONOS Brightening Face Wash contains Glycolic Acid 0.3%, Lactic Acid 1% and Niacinamide 1%. These ingredients are used in skincare formulations focused on cleansing, exfoliation and the appearance of dullness or uneven tone.

Choose products based on your skin’s needs, use them as directed, and maintain sun protection during the day.

Choosing a face wash? Start with your skin’s concern, not the packaging. 🧴

For acne-prone skin: ONOS Acne Face Wash contains Salicylic Acid 2%, an ingredient commonly used in cleansing formulations for acne-prone skin.

For dull-looking, uneven-looking skin: ONOS Brightening Face Wash contains Glycolic Acid 0.3% and Lactic Acid 1%. These AHAs are commonly used in skincare formulations focused on exfoliation and the appearance of skin texture.

Both products have different ingredient profiles and purposes. Your choice should depend on your skin’s needs, your current routine and how well your skin tolerates the formula.

Remember: more products don’t automatically mean a better routine. Start with a suitable cleanser, follow its directions and introduce exfoliating ingredients thoughtfully.

AHA vs BHA, what’s actually different? 🧴

Both are hydroxy acids used in skincare, but they aren’t interchangeable.

AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acids)
AHAs such as glycolic acid are water-soluble exfoliating ingredients that work mainly on the skin’s surface. They’re commonly used in formulations targeting the appearance of dullness and uneven-looking texture.

BHA (Beta Hydroxy Acids)
Salicylic acid is oil-soluble, which allows it to work within oil-containing pores. It’s commonly used in skincare formulated for oily and acne-prone skin.

Which one should you choose? It depends on your skin’s needs, the formulation, and how well your skin tolerates exfoliating ingredients. Stronger or more frequent use isn’t automatically better.

If you’re using exfoliating acids, introduce them thoughtfully and follow product directions. During the day, use sunscreen as part of your routine.

AHA exfoliation doesn’t mean scrubbing harder. 🌸

Glycolic acid and lactic acid belong to a group of ingredients called alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs). They’re commonly used in skincare formulations to support exfoliation and improve the appearance of dull, uneven-looking skin.

Here’s the important part: more scrubbing doesn’t mean better exfoliation.

Be gentle with your skin, avoid excessive physical scrubbing, and follow product directions. If you’re using exfoliating products, pay attention to irritation and keep sun protection in your daytime routine.

ONOS Brightening Face Wash contains:
• Glycolic Acid (0.3%)
• Lactic Acid (1%)
• Niacinamide (1%)

Remember, a consistent, suitable routine matters more than an aggressive one.

Why can skin look dull after summer?

After months of sun exposure, heat, sweat and changing routines, skin can sometimes look less fresh or feel like it needs a reset.

A few things can contribute to that appearance:

• Sun exposure
• Sweat and surface buildup
• Changes in your usual skincare routine

The goal isn’t to overdo your routine. Start by getting back to consistent, appropriate cleansing and skincare.

ONOS Brightening Face Wash contains Glycolic Acid 0.3%, Lactic Acid 1%, Niacinamide 1% and Aloe Vera 5% as part of its formulation.

Save this for your next post-summer routine reset.

Summer ended. Sunscreen didn’t. ☀️

One common sunscreen myth is that it’s only needed during hot summer months. UV exposure doesn’t simply stop when the season changes, so sun protection can remain part of your daily skincare routine beyond summer.

ONOS SC Sunscreen SPF-40 contains Bemotrizinol 5%, Uvinul A Plus 5% and Octinoxate 9% in a formula made for daily sun-protection routines.

If sunscreen is still sitting in the back of your shelf because summer is over, it’s time to bring it back into your routine.

Share this with someone who only reaches for sunscreen in summer.
