First Wave, a skincare favorite

First out of the gate from the akWa Korean skincare line is First Wave oil-to-foam cleanser. If the gal you get facials with is anything like mine, she’s nagging you about the “pre-cleanse” and why an oil-based cleanser is the only way to go.

This refreshing cleanser’s got green tea water and sea water! You know you’re a secret mermaid.

If you’re using sunscreen daily (like you know you should!), you need to remove that and/or any makeup. First Wave lathers up wonderfully and has a nice subtle aroma that will leave your skin clean and fresh and ready for any further treatments such as exfoliation, serums, and moisturizers.

What’s in it and how do I get it?
