What it is

Lightweight fermented essence designed to hydrate, refine surface texture, and deliver a smooth, supple feel without oiliness.

Who it's for

  • Normal, combination, or oily skin needing hydration without heaviness.
  • Those seeking a gentle texture-refining step that layers under actives.
  • Users preferring a non-sticky essence that absorbs quickly.

Key ingredients (INCI)

  • Fermented Bean Extract — provides smoothing, hydrating benefits.
  • Humectants (e.g., hyaluronic acid/glycerin) — attract and hold moisture.
  • Soothing agents (e.g., panthenol/allantoin) — comfort and calm skin feel.
  • Lightweight emollients — add slip without greasiness.

Free-from / texture

  • Watery-gel essence with fast absorption and non-sticky finish.
  • Generally low fragrance; review INCI for sensitivities.
  • Lightweight slip suitable for layering under serums and creams.

How to use & order

  • Apply after cleanser/toner on slightly damp skin.
  • Use 1–2 pumps over face and neck; follow with serum and moisturizer.
  • Use morning and night; finish with sunscreen in the daytime.

Conflicts & layering tips

  • Compatible with most actives; if pairing with strong acids/retinoids, build gradually and monitor for sensitivity.
  • Layer before heavier serums and creams; can be used to cushion stronger treatments.
  • Patch test if you have highly reactive skin.

Evidence & notes

  • Fermented extracts and humectants provide cosmetic hydration and smoothing; claims are cosmetic in nature.
  • Humectants benefit from sealing with moisturizer in dry climates to reduce transepidermal water loss.
  • Texture refinement is cosmetic; discontinue if irritation occurs.

Safety

  • For external use only; discontinue if irritation occurs.
  • Avoid applying on broken or compromised skin; consult a professional if post-procedure.
  • Patch test along the jawline before first full use.
  • Pregnancy/breastfeeding: cosmetic ingredients; defer to your physician for personal guidance.
