AXIS-Y

About AXIS - Y

Established in 2019, Korean skin care brand AXIS - Y is dedicated to creating gentle yet efficacious skin solutions that protect against the impact of environmental stressors such as air pollution. Using natural ingredients, AXIS - Y develops vegan and cruelty-free products that eschew potential skin irritants such as parabens, mineral oils, artificial fragrances and colorants. The results-driven, clinically proven products are formulated to be suitable for all skin types including sensitive, acne-prone and oily skin.

AXIS - Y touts two product lines: the 6+1+1 line and the ay&me line. The beloved 6+1+1 series includes some of the brand’s top sellers such as the Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum and Spot The Difference Blemish Treatment. Products from this series are formulated with six natural ingredients full of nutrients, combined with one active ingredient targeting a specific skin problem and anchored by one cutting-edge technological system.

The community-focused brand’s more recent launch − the ay&me collection − was born from customers’ feedback regarding their personal skin concerns. Centered around biome skin care with a blend of prebiotics and probiotics, the ay&me line focuses on supporting skin’s barrier function and natural balance as well as preventing signs of aging.

AXIS - Y’s Blemish Treatments

Keeping acne-prone skin top of mind, AXIS - Y offers various highly effective products targeting acne blemishes, hyperpigmentation and dark spots. Struggling with post-acne marks and blemishes? Count on the AXIS - Y Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum to deliver. The bestseller is packed with 5% niacinamide (water-soluble Vitamin B3) and papaya extract containing skin-healing papain enzyme for brightening effects. The light and refreshing formula also contains vitamin-rich rice bran and plant-derived squalane to offer skin nourishment and hydration. Apply Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum only on concerned areas to correct dark spots, or apply a layer over the entire face like a sleeping mask to wake up to radiant skin the next morning.

Heavy-hitting spot treatments can often be too harsh or drying, and may damage the skin barrier and eventually exacerbate acne breakouts. For gentle acne solutions, the Spot The Difference Blemish Treatment is a solid choice for all skin types including acne-prone and sensitive skin. Formulated with the spot-fighting combination of AHA and BHA, the blemish treatment gently sloughs off dead skin cells and excess oil to prevent acne formation. It features tea tree leaf extract and green tea leaf to soothe irritated skin, and pink ceramide capsules to help restore the skin barrier.

To maintain skin’s healthy glow, incorporate both products into your skin care routine. The Spot The Difference Blemish Treatment keeps your acne breakouts in check, while the Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum corrects dark spots and improves uneven skin tone for bright and flawless skin. The gentle combo is nourishing and hydrating, keeping your skin in tip-top condition all year round.

AXIS - Y’s Wash Off Masks

Formulated to purify and clarify skin, the Mugwort Pore Clarifying Wash Off Pack keeps the pores clear through a blend of grime-absorbing ingredients such as kaolin and charcoal powder, as well as skin-soothers like mugwort extract to keep irritation at bay. Enriched with hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid, the Mugwort Pore Clarifying Wash Off Pack provides a boost of hydration.

Restore tired and lackluster skin with the New Skin Resolution Gel Mask that stars a bevy of plant-derived ingredients (including heartleaf, fig, Korean mugwort and yam root) to unveil radiant, youthful and well-hydrated skin. Additional ingredients like 2% niacinamide fortify a weakened skin barrier and improve uneven skin tone and texture. Unsure about whether the Mugwort Pore Clarifying Wash Off Pack or the New Skin Resolution Gel Mask is better suited for you? Grab the Mask Now Glow Later Duo Set to test them both!

If you’re looking for an exfoliator but find AHA and BHA too harsh for your skin, PHA may be the answer. The PHA Resurfacing Glow Peel is powered by 10% PHA to gently purge gunk from pores and improve skin texture. A plethora of radiance-boosting, plant-based ingredients in the effective formula − namely cucumber and camellia extracts, hydrating green papaya and soothing cica extract − boost skin’s healing process and treat scars.

AXIS - Y for Barrier Care

A healthy skin barrier is key to maintaining optimal skin health. In the morning, freshen up with the Sunday Morning Refreshing Cleansing Foam packed with six natural ingredients like green tea, licorice root and cica extracts to soothe skin while eliminating everyday grime. Other ingredients like birch sap and Aquaxyl strengthen a weakened skin barrier while providing a dose of moisture. In the evening, opt for the Quinoa One Step Balanced Gel Cleanser, as the vitamin-rich and pH-balanced formula features quinoa extract and other botanical ingredients to thoroughly cleanse away makeup residue and impurities with a soothing touch.

If you have combination skin, the Cera-Heart My Type Duo Cream is a godsend as it offers two formulas, one specially designed for the T-zone (forehead and nose) and one for the U-zone (cheeks and chin). Both formulas are infused with centella asiatica to moisturize skin and refine uneven texture, plus sorghum extract to deliver brightening and anti-aging effects.

For more intensive barrier care, the Artichoke Intensive Skin Barrier Ampoule helps strengthen the skin barrier and revitalize skin with artichoke extract, aloe vera leaf water and cica extract. Saturated with hawkweed extract and kelp extract, the formula is absorbed swiftly into skin for a moisture boost.

Other products that offer barrier-supporting care to promote a healthy complexion include the Calamine Pore Control Capsule Serum, Heartleaf My Type Calming Cream and Daily Purifying Treatment Toner.

AXIS - Y for Sun Care

Physical sunscreens are gentler, thicker and more suitable for sensitive, acne-prone and dry skin than their chemical sunscreen counterparts. Fitted with mineral filters and SPF 50+ PA++++, AXIS - Y’s Complete No-Stress Physical Sunscreen protects skin against sun rays and fends off free radicals. Bolstered by 2% niacinamide and hyaluronic acid, the reef-safe sunscreen delivers ample hydration, leaving a light and soft finish.

Those seeking a chemical sunscreen would love the cranberry peptide-rich Biome Double Defense Sunscreen from AXIS - Y’s ay&me collection. The lightweight formula offers SPF 50+ PA++++ protection against the sun’s rays along with skin care benefits like hydration and barrier care. It absorbs easily for a non-sticky and white cast-free finish.
