-
A lightweight, regenerating gel-cream designed for post-acne care, irritated or sensitive skin.
-
It combines a “multi-layered structure” that hydrates, nourishes, and calms the skin.
Key Ingredients (and Strengths)
Important active ingredients (each in fairly high concentrations, ~10,000 ppm) are:
-
Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) – strengthens skin barrier, balances oil, fades dark spots, evens skin tone.
-
Panthenol (Pro-vitamin B5) – provides hydration, soothes irritation and promotes healing.
-
Opuntia Ficus-Indica Stem Extract (cactus stem) – deeply hydrating, good for dry or sensitive skin.
Other supportive ingredients
-
Hyaluronic acid (for additional moisture)
-
Ceramide NP (helps restore/strengthen Barrier)
-
Various plant extracts & botanicals (calming, antioxidant).
Importantly: the formula is fragrance-free, free from artificial color, and advertised as non-greasy.
What It’s Good For (Benefits)
-
Soothing redness, irritation, and calming post-acne skin.
-
Fading dark marks / acne scars and evening out skin tone.
-
Hydrating the skin without heavy, greasy feel. Good for sensitive, combination skin.
-
Strengthening the skin barrier, which helps protect from further irritation or sensitivity.
Potential Considerations / Limitations
-
Some users report breakouts or “purging” (small bumps, whiteheads), especially if used with other active or irritating products.
-
Might not provide enough moisture for very dry skin types—some feel a need to layer with richer creams or oils.
-
Because of the many botanicals / plant extracts, there is a potential for sensitivity in some users. Patch testing is advisable.
-
Price is relatively high compared to simpler moisturizers. Many users like it but question cost vs. how much “extra” you get.
How to Use
-
Use on clean, dry skin (after cleanser, toner, serum steps)
-
Apply as a barrier or final / semi-final moisturizing step.
-
Can be used morning & evening, but especially helpful at night when skin repairs itself.
-
If new to active ingredients, start gradually.
