The layer that makes everything work harder
Indulge your skin in deep, lasting hydration with this intensively plumping essence. Designed to deliver both instant and long-lasting moisture, it leaves the complexion smooth, supple and beautifully radiant, with a youthful-looking glow. Clinically proven to provide up to 24 hours of hydration, this effortless step elevates your skincare routine with visible results.
Often overlooked, an essence is the key to unlocking the full potential of your skincare routine, enhancing the absorption and performance of the products that follow. Lightweight and fast-absorbing, it integrates seamlessly into any routine, making it ideal for those experiencing dryness, dullness, mid-day makeup patchiness or for anyone seeking to amplify the benefits of their skincare. Once introduced, it will be a step you don’t want to miss.
This advanced, high-performance formula is enriched with Ceramides, Hyaluronic Acid and Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5, alongside Vitamins C, E and B3 (Niacinamide). Together, these actives work to deeply hydrate, plump and replenish the skin, helping to smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while reinforcing the skin’s natural moisture barrier. The complexion appears more even, with improved elasticity and a refined texture.
Dermatologically tested, this lightweight formula delivers comfort and hydration with every application.
