Frequently asked questions
Which Haruharu Wonder product should I start with?
Most people start with the Black Rice Hyaluronic Toner, since it is the brand's signature product and easy to add to any routine. Add a cream or serum later based on your concern.
Is Haruharu Wonder good for sensitive skin?
Many products are made with short ingredient lists, and there are fragrance-free and unscented versions of the toner, cleansers and creams. Patch-test first, as with any new product.
What is the difference between the regular and fragrance-free toner?
They share the same hydrating idea, but the fragrance-free version leaves out added scent, which can suit sensitive skin better. The 30ml size is handy for trying or travel.
Can I use the Night Knight Retinol Serum every night?
Start two or three nights a week and increase slowly if your skin is comfortable. Use it at night only and wear sunscreen every morning.
Is Haruharu Wonder at lo la original?
