Isn’t it funny how the moment you decide to purchase something or try something new you start to see it everywhere? I first heard about the Hanacure All-In-One-Facial from a friend who told me it was the latest thing in Korean skin care. So I made a mental note to look it up later on. Literally the next day, it was everywhere.
People were posting before and after photos and raving about how amazing their skin was. So naturally, my mental note turned into an immediate purchase.
Hanacure Science
Hanacure’s All-In-One Facial claims to be the only product to deliver a transformative experience in just 30 minutes. The patented CO2 OctoLift™ technology is the secret sauce that tightens, brightens, contours and diminishes the appearance of wrinkles giving your skin that youthful glow.
First Impressions
Hanacure’s black and white packaging is sleek, minimal and very aesthetically pleasing. I purchased the starter pack which contains one treatment for $29. You can buy the full set for $110, it contains a one month supply (4 lifting serums, 4 gelling packs and 1 brush). The starter pack also comes with a nano emulsion sample which, hopefully, comes in the full set as well.
How To Use
The instructions are straightforward and come with illustrations. First peel back the corner of the gel solution ever so slightly and pour in the lifting serum. Then hold the corner edge of the gel solution and shake vigorously for 20 seconds. Once the gel forms, simply apply to your face with the brush (avoiding direct contact with eye, lids and lips) and leave on for 30 minutes until the gel dries completely. Easy peasy.
Be prepared to experience an intense tightening sensation followed by 30 minutes of looking like Spongebob Squarepants when he went to visit Sandy for the first time. Resist the urge to panic as your lips are slowly pulled back and your teeth start to show. I promise it will be worth it.
After 30 minutes are up you can rinse your face with warm water. Be sure to keep the brush, it’s really good.
Here’s a breakdown of Pros & Cons to help you on your journey
Pros
- No overpowering scent; clean and cooling application
- Easy to follow instructions
- Reusable brush
- Amazingly soft skin after treatment
- Less treatment required once your skin reaches your desired results
- Generous amount of product
- This might just be me, but I love the tightening feeling, it makes me feel like it’s working!
Cons
- Price point is a bit expensive
- The post-treatment redness can last longer for some people
- Generous amount of product; I did feel like I could have gotten 2 treatments out of it
- The serum bottle can be a bit tricky to open (I did almost drop mine and the bottle is made of glass)
Final thoughts
All in all, I will definitely purchase the full set in the future as Hanacure recommends a full month’s use to see best results and then single treatments as you need them. I’m excited to see how my skin looks after a full set of treatments. If you can afford it you should
