A look at revamped horse oil skin care products
Horse oil has been well-known for its basic hydrating properties in Japan for some time, often referred to as BAHYU.
However in 2015, Florence says Korea's cosmetics market revamped the formulation, transforming it from an all-in-one product to a miracle emollient with amazing absorbent properties and an ability to treat skin damage, fine lines and acne scars.
Several products have recently sprung onto the scene, but it is Guérisson's '9-Complex' that is currently commanding the spotlight; easily recognizable thanks to its' packaging concept and endorsed by Lee Ha-nui, a famous beauty show presenter.
The product claims '7 skin wonders in just one bottle' such as moisturizing, repairing and lifting properties as well as the ability to increase skin density.
