TOERI's Minimalist Ideal: '2-Step Skincare'

TOERI, known for its 'time as an ally' philosophy in makeup and skincare, now advances into adult skincare routines. True to its previous products, this new '2-Step Skincare' aims for 'minimal effort, luxurious results' after cleansing, offering a quick yet effective routine.

Both morning and evening routines are completed in just two steps, providing efficient care while delivering a rich, hydrated, and high-quality skin feel.

Why '2-Step'?

◾️ Goal: Maintain hydration all day long

TOERI believes that hydration is the foundation of healthy adult skin. Dehydrated skin is more prone to visible signs of aging, so TOERI aims to protect and maintain moisture throughout the day and night, pursuing a minimalist skincare approach.

◾️ Separate roles: 'deliver' and 'lock in' moisture for maximum effectiveness

Initially, the team considered consolidating multiple functions into a single product for simplicity. However, delivering moisture deeply into the skin and sealing it effectively require different formulations and approaches. Therefore, TOERI chose a two-step system: using a toner to deliver hydration and a cream to lock it in. This specialization allows TOERI to achieve its desired quality standards.

◾️ Addressing different skin needs in the morning and at night: two types of 'protective' creams

TOERI also recognizes the differing skin conditions between morning and night. While the 'Essence Lotion' is used both morning and night, TOERI developed two specialized creams: the 'Essence UV Cream' for daytime UV protection and the 'Moisture Cream' to deeply nourish skin overnight. The two-step routine—toner plus cream—remains consistent, but the cream is optimized for each time of day. This 2-step, 3-product design represents TOERI's optimal solution for maintaining hydration around the clock.

Key Ingredients and Formulations Behind '2-Step Skincare'

◾️ Fermented extract from germinated brown rice 'Yukihikari' — Used in 'TOERI Essence Lotion' and 'TOERI Moisture Cream'

To address hydration—the core of '2-Step Skincare'—TOERI uses 'YUKIME®,' a fermented extract derived from germinated brown rice 'Yukihikari.' Grown in Hokkaido's cold regions using sustainable, pesticide-free Aigamo farming (duck-rice farming), this ingredient is produced with pristine groundwater from Kamuiyama and undergoes a special 'Mild Maturation Fermentation Process' using Lacansea yeast. It supports the skin's barrier function, enhances natural moisture, and delivers a refreshing, plump feel.

◾️ 'UV Shield Sheet Formula' enabling long-lasting, reapplication-free UV protection — Used in 'TOERI Essence UV Cream'

The 'TOERI Essence UV Cream' features the advanced 'UV Shield Sheet Formula,' inspired by food processing technology. Thanks to α-oligosaccharides derived from corn (ingredient: cyclodextrin), oil-based components form a film that creates a strong UV shield on the skin. Highly water- and friction-resistant, it maintains UV protection for approximately six hours, even after sweating or rubbing. Free from surfactants, it combines gentle care for sensitive skin with exceptional durability.

It effortlessly protects the skin from daytime dryness and UV exposure.

With a light, soufflé-like texture that spreads easily without burden, it adheres firmly upon absorption. Despite its high SPF50+ and PA++++ protection, it avoids stickiness or filminess, prioritizing comfort.
