Just the Right Ingredients

Iren’s latest serums are created in collaboration with A*Star researchers. They use only ingredients that are necessary, and which are the cleanest and safest. These are then sealed using the brand’s “ziplock” technology, which forms a veil over the actives to ensure freshness and efficacy until the serum is applied on the skin. Seven variants are available, so pick what you need for your top skin concerns. They are $58 each at Face Shower Bar, #B1-17A Citylink Mall.
