Anua

Anua built its reputation on one ingredient — heartleaf, or houttuynia cordata — and on a toner that became the brand's calling card.

Heartleaf is a calming agent rather than an active. It brings redness and reactivity down, which is why the range suits skin that is stressed rather than skin that needs correcting.

The azelaic acid serum is the exception, and the one to reach for if you have redness and blemishes together. If you are new to the brand, start with the toner — see Toners for how to layer it properly.
