Key Ingredients

11kDa HYALURONIC ACID

Our smallest molecular size of Hyaluronic Acid, this micronized ingredient penetrates to fortify skin within its deepest surface layers.* By delivering skin-strengthening hydration to skin’s most vulnerable layer, 11kDa Hyaluronic Acid helps better retain moisture for improved resiliency, suppleness and bounce.
*Stratum corneum

ADAPTOGENIC HERBAL COMPLEX

Our Adaptogenic Herbal Complex is a proprietary blend of adaptogens — Red Ginseng Root, Holy Basil and Schisandra Berry — traditionally used in Traditional Chinese, Korean and Ayurvedic Medicine. Within our formula, these adaptogens work synergistically to defend skin from stressors while renewing and resurfacing skin’s texture for a smooth, radiant appearance.
