Get Ramadhan Ready Skin with Mamonde | Certified Halal and Wudhu Friendly Skincare

It's that holy time of the year again, the month of Ramadhan. Ramadhan, marking a month of fasting filled with prayers and reflection, it's always nice to be aware of the type of skincare that we use especially when Ramadan is all about self-cleansing. Before performing prayers, we usually go through a ritual of ablution or wudhu (the process of washing before prayers), and what better way than to cleanse with halal-certified beauty products from Korea?

Mamonde being one of my all-time favorite products has thought of ways to cater to their users, including the Muslims by going the extra mile to come up with products that are formulated without alcohol or animal substance. And for this Ramadhan, I would recommend you to check out their Ceramide and Rose Water ranges that are certified halal and wudhu-friendly, which also means you can freely use without the need to remove it before prayers. With moisturizing properties, it's definitely ideal for the skin especially during the fasting month when water consumption is restricted throughout the day. 

Mamonde Ceramide Range

For the Ceramide range, I would personally recommend you Mamonde's Hibiscus Flower as its research has uncovered the flower’s moisturizing properties that can offer hydration benefits to the skin. The popular Ceramide range is formulated with moisturizing Hibiscus extract along with ceramide, its key ingredient. With that information, the ideal combination of the Hibiscus extract and Ceramide helps to strengthen the skin’s outer barrier by keeping moisture close to the skin. This range is especially suitable for dry and dehydrated skin. Upon application, the skin will instantly feel fresh and moisturized without having any sticky residue.

For your information, the products under the Ceramide range that have been given halal certification are Ceramide Skin Softener, Ceramide Emulsion, Ceramide Light Cream, and The Ceramide Intense Cream.

Ceramide Skin Softener (200 ml, RM70)

This intensive moisturizing toner helps protect the skin’s moisture barrier that has been damaged by external environment factors and provides a boost of hydration to the skin without leaving any sticky residue. It also contains the moisturizing agent Betaine extracted from the beet to further moisturize the skin. Suitable for those experiencing flaky/sensitive/rough skin.

Ceramide Emulsion (150 ml, RM80)

It helps in strengthening the skin’s moisture barrier and provides moisture to the skin. Its lightweight creamy texture is absorbed quickly into the skin.

Ceramide Light Cream (50 ml, RM131) 

This has double the moisturizing ingredient made up of mainly hibiscus extract to strengthen the skin’s moisture barrier, leaving the skin feeling moisturized and looking healthy. A lighter alternative for those with combination skin.

Ceramide Intense Cream (50 ml, RM131)

Works like the Light Cream to provide a boost of moisture to the skin. Ceramide is quickly absorbed and the double content of moisturizing ingredients extracted from the Hibiscus helps to strengthen the skin’s barrier to create a moist and healthy-looking skin. Suitable for those with flaky, sensitive, and rough skin.

Rose Water Range

Another favorite product of mine that is a must-have at home would be the Mamonde’s Rose Water Range that uses 100% Organic Damask Rose as its main ingredient for its Rose Water range. Picked by trained experts when the morning dew is at its peak, the Damask Rose is highly-prized for its top quality. Rose extracts from the Mamonde Rose Water Range is grown in the Rose Valley in Turia village, Bulgaria. Some of the key benefits of this range include instant soothing and moisturizing while the lovely scent helps to soothe the senses.  Products in the Rose Water range included in the halal list are the Rose Water Toner, Rose Water Gel Cream, and the Rose Water Soothing Gel.

Rose Water Toner (250 ml, RM85)

Infused with 90.97% rose water, Mamonde Rose Water Toner helps provide excellent soothing and moisturizing care for the skin. When applied, it absorbs into the skin and immediately softens rough, flaky skin to reveal a clear and vibrant complexion.

Rose Water Toner Pad (40 sheets, RM70) 

This is a rosy pad soaked in Rose Water Toner that can be used as a toner or a sheet mask. Functions are similar to the Rose Water Toner, it provides excellent soothing and moisturizing care for the skin. The Rose Water Toner Pad is ultra-lightweight and mesh. Upon application, the rose pad fits closely to the skin to remove dead skin cells and aid in delivering the rose water deeper into the skin.

Rose Water Gel Cream (80 ml, RM99) 

A refreshing moisturizing cream effective for soothing and intensive skin moisturizing care. The Rose Water Gel Cream is light-weight and has a non-sticky texture. When applied, it forms a moisture barrier on the skin and keeps the skin hydrated for an extended time. To achieve the optimum result, use the Rose Water Toner/Rose Water Toner Pad followed by the Rose Water Gel Cream for a double-layered moisturizing effect that will result in a smooth and dewy skin inside out.

Rose Water Soothing Gel (300 ml, RM55) 

The Mamonde Rose Water Soothing Gel is a multi-purpose soothing gel infused with 90.81% of rose water that penetrates quickly onto the skin and provides the skin with rich moisture. It comes with rose fragrance and a cooling formula to help soothe dry and tired skin on the face, hair, and body. The Rose Water Soothing Gel can be used as: -

· A cold pack or an overnight mask pack

· A rose-scented hair essence on hair roughened by a hot shower or UV rays

· A fragrant and cooling body lotion in the summer
