A Japanese liquid face moisturiser offers an extra boost of moisture that results in visibly healthier, dewy skin. Curél Moisture Facial Lotion is a soothing pre-moisturiser in the Japanese facial toner tradition that instantly hydrates to help calm dry, sensitive skin, relieve tightness and prep the skin to lock in moisture.
