Background : A combination of facial cleanser and moisturizer is necessary to maintain healthy skin. Objective : This study aimed to evaluate the effects of Luzstre facial cleanser and moisturizer on skin rejuvenation. Methods : A study was conducted with man and woman participants aged 20 to 60 years for 8 weeks. Luzstre facial cleanser and moisturizer were used twice a day (morning and night), and skin assessments of skin pores, wrinkles, elasticity, sebum, and hydration, were performed at baseline, week 3, and week 8. Participant satisfaction surveys were administered at the end of the study, and the adverse effects of both products were assessed based on the participants’ reports. Results : After 8 weeks of using Luzstre facial cleanser and moisturizer, there was a significant increase in skin hydration (p<0.05) compared to baseline. However, there were no significant changes in the participants’ skin pores, wrinkles, elasticity, or sebum levels from baseline to week 8. Most of the participants were satisfied with the products (86.9%). They reported that their skin felt hydrated and did not feel itchy. The participants perceived that the products provided a soothing sensation; their skin felt soft, did not feel dry or sticky, and became more radiant. However, 3 participants withdrew from the study because of skin irritation and rashes after using the products. They also reported that their skin felt dry and that they experienced a stinging sensation after using the facial cleanser. None of the participants reported any other adverse effects. Conclusion : Using Luzstre facial cleanser and moisturizer in combination significantly increased skin hydration, resulting in high satisfaction. This result also indicates the need for potential research, such as a randomized controlled trial with a larger sample size and longer follow-up, for other skin conditions such as acne, eczema, and psoriasis.
