๐ฌ Ingredient Breakdown
๐ฟ Centella Asiatica Extract 20.8% Proven
A powerhouse K-beauty ingredient renowned for its wound-healing, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. At 20.8%, this is a generously dosed active that soothes irritated skin and stimulates collagen production.
- Clinical data: Studies show Centella promotes collagen synthesis and accelerates wound healing via madecassoside pathways.
- Benefit: Calms redness, strengthens the skin barrier, and increases skin's antioxidant levels.
๐ง Sodium Hyaluronate 8,000 ppb Proven
The salt form of hyaluronic acid, a humectant that can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water. Penetrates skin effectively to deliver deep hydration at the cellular level.
- Molecular weight: Sodium Hyaluronate has a smaller molecular size than HA, allowing better skin penetration.
- Research: Proven to reduce transepidermal water loss and improve skin elasticity with consistent use.
๐งฑ Ceramide NP 5,000 ppb Proven
A skin-identical lipid that makes up roughly 50% of the intercellular matrix. Ceramide NP reinforces the skin barrier, locks in moisture, and reduces fine lines associated with dehydration.
- Barrier function: Ceramides bond skin cells together, preventing moisture loss and protecting against environmental irritants.
- Synergy: Works most effectively when combined with other lipids like cholesterol and lecithin (both present in this formula).
๐ Panthenol (Vitamin B5) 5,000 ppm (0.5%) Proven
Pro-vitamin B5 is a deeply moisturizing and anti-inflammatory ingredient that accelerates skin repair. At 0.5%, it provides meaningful hydration and soothing benefits.
- Mechanism: Converts to pantothenic acid in the skin, enhancing wound healing and moisture retention.
- Clinical use: Widely used in dermatological products for its proven ability to reduce irritation and improve skin softness.
๐ซง Allantoin Effective Level Proven
A well-established soothing and skin-protecting ingredient that promotes cell regeneration. Commonly paired with active ingredients to minimize potential irritation.
- Function: Softens and protects the skin while promoting wound healing and healthy cell turnover.
๐ Beta-Glucan Supporting Level Promising
A potent antioxidant polysaccharide with strong moisturizing and soothing properties. Some studies suggest it can rival hyaluronic acid in moisture retention while calming sensitized skin.

โ Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. This toner does not contain retinoids, salicylic acid, hydroquinone, chemical sunscreen filters, or any other ingredients flagged as potentially harmful during pregnancy or breastfeeding. All ingredients are rated EWG safety grade 1โ2. However, as with any product, consult your healthcare provider if you have specific concerns.
Use with caution. The formula contains Saccharomyces Ferment (a yeast-derived ingredient), Squalane (which may contain trace fatty acids depending on sourcing), and Octyldodecanol โ all of which may potentially feed Malassezia yeast in sensitive individuals. While many people use Saccharomyces-containing products without issues, those with active fungal acne should patch test first or consider a confirmed fungal-acne-safe alternative.
Absolutely. This is a hydrating toner with no exfoliating acids or actives that would conflict. In fact, it makes an excellent prep step before retinol, vitamin C, AHAs, or BHAs โ the ceramides, panthenol, and centella help buffer irritation and keep skin moisturized while you use stronger actives. Apply this toner first, let it absorb, then follow with your active product.
This toner is formulated for all skin types but excels for dry, dehydrated, sensitive, and combination skin. The lightweight watery texture works well for oily skin too, though very oily types may find the dewy finish slightly too hydrating. It is especially beneficial for anyone with a compromised skin barrier, post-procedure skin, or skin exposed to harsh environments.
Immediate hydration and softness are noticeable from the first use. Visible calming of redness and irritation typically occurs within 1โ2 weeks of consistent use. Meaningful barrier strengthening and improved skin texture generally appear after 3โ4 weeks. Long-term benefits like sustained moisture retention and reduced sensitivity develop over 2โ3 months of daily use.
Apply this toner as step 2 in your routine, immediately after cleansing and before essences, serums, and moisturizers. Use it morning and evening. For extra hydration, you can layer it 2โ3 times using the Korean 7-skin method. Always follow with a moisturizer to seal in hydration, and sunscreen in the morning.
This toner has a very low comedogenic rating of 1 out of 5. It contains no heavy oils, waxes, or known pore-clogging ingredients. The watery formula absorbs quickly and is unlikely to clog pores for most people. It is also free from silicones, which can sometimes trap debris in pores. However, individual results may vary โ if you are highly acne-prone, patch test on a small area first.
The product has a Period After Opening (PAO) of 12 months. With twice-daily use, the 160ml bottle typically lasts approximately 2โ3 months depending on how much product you use per application. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and keep the cap tightly sealed to maximize shelf life.
Verdict: The APLB Hyaluronic Acid Ceramide HA B5 Facial Toner is an outstanding value-driven K-beauty toner that delivers serious hydration and barrier support at an affordable price point. With 20.8% Centella Asiatica, Ceramide NP, Panthenol, and Sodium Hyaluronate all in a fragrance-free, gentle formula, it checks nearly every box for dry, sensitive, and dehydrated skin. The only knock is its potential incompatibility with fungal acne due to the Saccharomyces Ferment content. For everyone else, this is a highly effective daily toner that punches well above its price class.

Understanding Silicones
If you've ever used a skincare, makeup or beauty product that's made your skin look and feel smoother tempoarily - it's likely contained Silicone. They are a popular class of ingredients found in cosmetics due to their smooth, soft, easy-to-spread and smooth properties that help creates an artificial layer/barrier on top of skin or hair (commonly found in conditioners).
For the same reasons they are popularly used, they are also commonly avoided. Anecdotally, many individuals have reported that Silicones cause/excerbate breakouts, irritation, cause a feeling of skin being unable to breathe, cause clumping of cosmetic products and find it difficult to wash off. As a result, those who find them problematic are avoiding them and increasingly, cosmetic companies are avoiding them as well.
If you have had bad experiences with Silicones in the past, or suspect they are problematic then look out for the tick on the Silicone-free label.
Disclaimer
The Silicone-free label only includes the most common Silicone ingredients that have indentified been reported by individuals that could potentially cause issues.
These include: Amodimethicone, Behenoxy Dimethicone, Bis-Aminopropyl Dimethicone, Cetearyl Methicone, Cetyl Dimethicone, Cyclomethicone, Cyclopentasiloxane, Dimethicone, Dimethicone Copolyol, Dimethiconol, Methicone, Phenyl Trimethicone, Phenyl Trimethicone, Stearoxy Dimethicone, Stearyl Dimethicone, Trimethylsilylamodimethicone.

EU Allergen-Free
EU Allergen-Free
Understanding the Identified Contact Allergens
The EU's Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) has identified and established 26 cosmetic ingredients that are likely contact allergens (potential to cause skin allergies) as demonstrated in clinical or epidemiological studies. The EU's SCCS have recommend cosmetic companies to disclose them on the labels if used and in cases where the concentration exceeds 0.001% in leave-on products and 0.01% in rinse-off products, then they must be labelled.
Look out for the tick on the EU-Allergen free label to know your cosmetic is free from any of the 26 identified cosmetic ingredients.
For more information regarding the EU's Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety, please visit their official website.
Disclaimer
The EU Allergen Free label is for the 26 ingredients identified by the EU SCCS and products will be only flagged if a suspected ingredient is on it's ingredient list. It is possible for cosmetics to contain one of the suspect ingredients without it appearing on the ingredient list due to it not reaching the concentration threshold to disclose it and cosmetic manufacturers choice to not disclose it.
Also note, the EU Allergen Free label is not personalized for your own allergies you may have and it does not constitute as medical advice.

Fungal Acne (Molassezia) Safe
Fungal Acne (Molassezia) Safe
Understanding Fungal Acne (Pityrosporum Folliculitis/Malassezia Folliculitis)
Pityrosporum Folliculitis/Malassezia folliculitis or simply known as Fungal Acne is a persistent acne-like condition that commonly responds poorly to traditional acne-treating methods. Unlike most cases of Acne where bacteria is the culprit, Fungi is the culprit of Fungal Acne (Hence the name!). There are certain classes & groups of ingredients that have been shown to promote and feed the growth of the Fungal Acne, Fungi such as fatty acids, oils, esters, polysorbates and fermented ingredients.
For more information regarding Fungal Acne, please visit Simple Skincare Science (f.c) - #3 of our Recommend Skincare Resources for an amazing comprehensive guide!
Please Read: How to use the Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Label
At SkinCarisma, we've done our best to identify as many ingredients as possible but note the fungal-free label may not be 100% accurate due to the complexconditions and combination of ingredients that malezzeria can thrive on.
Additionally, products that may contain ingredients that have shown to feed Malassezia may not neccessarily exacerbate the condition due to concentration of ingredient used in the product, this information is simply not available on the products.
As a result, please note this is only an experimental label that can be best used to possible identify problematic products you have used in the past. It is in no way a perfect identifier nor a predictor in whether or not it will exacerbate or cause fungal acne. It will continue to be worked on as more information and research comes to light.
If you find any ingredients you believe should be included, please email us at snails@skincarisma.com.
Disclaimer
Due to the lack of substantial research into this area it is very likely there are other ingredients and class/groups of ingredients that could feed Fungal Acne which have not been indentified.
The Fungal-Safe label does not constitute as medical advice. For your specific case, always consult your medical professiona such as dermatologist, physician, pharmacist, or health care provider - please read our medical disclaimer for more information.
What are Notable Effects & Ingredients?
Ever used a product that promised a certain effect but provided no results? It might not have contained any notable ingredients that could have been responsible for that promised effect. It doesn't matter what the marketing or packaging ยซpromisesยป it can do, if it doesn't contain anything that can help - then the likelihood of it helping is low.
We help you identify key notable ingredients that have been shown to help with effects such as acne-fighting, brightening, UV-protection, wound healing & anti-aging to help you achieve your skincare goals smarter. Please note that different notable ingredients have varying levels of research behind them, some are extremely well proven yet some have mixed research in their efficacy.
Pro Tip Alert!
Just because a product doesn't contain any notable ingredients doesn't mean it's bad. And a product with notable ingredients (or even many) doesn't necessarily guarantee the efficacy of the product performing these effects either. There are other factors such as ingredient quality, concentration and formulation that will ultimately determine this.
Be smart and use this as just a starting point for you to make more informed and smarter choices and compare it with reviews to see if the product is right for you

What is the Ingredient Safety Breakdown?
Ingredient Safety Breakdown refers to the percentage % of ingredients in different risk categories as classified by EWG (Environment Working Group) if they are available. There are almost endless cosmetic ingredients and they are one of the few organisations globally that have assigned ratings to a lot of the more commonly used ingredients which is why we reference them.
Pro Tip Alert!
EWG is seen by many to be more on the alarmist side in their assignment of health ratings resulting in rating ingredients as riskier than they actually are. We recommend using this a reference point rather than a strict guide of ingredient safety and to always do further research if into ingredients that you may find suspect.
