Key ingredients

Niacinamide

Strengthens the barrier, controls oil, and fades dark spots — gentle and plays well with almost everything.

Hyaluronic Acid

Holds water in the skin for instant plumping and hydration.

Azelaic Acid

Calms redness, clears acne, and fades marks — gentle enough for rosacea.

Vitamin E

An antioxidant that protects the barrier and supercharges vitamin C.

Glycerin

The workhorse humectant — simple, effective, and exceptionally well-tolerated.

Ectoin

A microbe-derived “extremolyte” that shields the skin barrier from environmental stress — pollution, UV, dryness — while locking in moisture.

Panthenol (B5)

A barrier-repairing humectant that hydrates and calms — a sensitive-skin staple.

Allantoin

Calms redness and smooths texture — buffers harsh actives beautifully.

Adenosine

A cell-signaling ingredient that smooths fine lines and supports firmer skin.

Beta-Glucan

A soothing humectant that hydrates and calms reactive skin.
