This is what your skin feels like when its barrier is actually supported - calm, hydrated, quietly resilient. A milky essence powered by fermented black rice and probiotics works beneath the surface to rebuild strength, not just add temporary moisture.

Benefits

• Stronger, more resilient skin - Reinforces the skin barrier to reduce sensitivity, dryness, and environmental stress.

• Deep, lasting hydration - Layers moisture into the skin so it stays hydrated well beyond application.

• Smoother, healthier texture - Softens roughness and improves overall skin feel without heaviness.

Hero Ingredients

• Fermented Black Rice Extract - Rich in antioxidants to support skin repair while improving hydration and elasticity.

• Galactomyces + Bifida Ferments - Strengthen the microbiome and enhance barrier recovery for more resilient skin.

• Ceramide NP + NS - Replenish essential lipids to lock in moisture and reduce transepidermal water loss.

• Panthenol (Vitamin B5) - Calms irritation while boosting hydration and supporting barrier repair.

Skin Compatibility

Best for dry, sensitive, or barrier-compromised skin needing real repair - not just hydration. If you’re very oily, you may prefer a lighter, more watery toner.

How to Use

Apply after cleansing and toner, gently pressing into the skin as your essence step. Use morning and night, then follow with serum and moisturiser. For optimal barrier recovery, layer under a ceramide-rich cream.

Studio Pick

This is a true barrier-first formula - not just hydrating, but actively rebuilding skin strength with ferments and ceramides. It’s one of the few essences that consistently improves how skin behaves over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a toner or an essence?

It sits between both. While labeled as an essence, it has the fluidity of a toner with the treatment benefits of a barrier-repair serum, making it ideal as a first treatment layer.

Can I use this if I have sensitive skin?

Yes, this is specifically designed for sensitive and compromised skin. It contains barrier-supporting ingredients like ceramides and panthenol, with no added fragrance.

Will this feel heavy or greasy?

No. Despite containing oils and ceramides, it absorbs cleanly into the skin with a lightweight, slightly milky finish - not oily or occlusive.

Can I layer this with actives like retinol or exfoliants?

Yes. In fact, it works well alongside actives by helping reduce irritation and supporting barrier recovery, making your routine more tolerable.

How is this different from a hyaluronic acid toner?

Hyaluronic acid hydrates - this goes further. It hydrates while actively repairing the skin barrier using ceramides and probiotics, leading to longer-term skin improvement.
