Science

A concentrated serum that drenches the face in lasting hydration. Advanced botanical and bioactive ingredients—snow mushroom extract, red algae and chlorophyll—bathe the complexion in rich minerals, antioxidants and phytonutrients for a healthy glow.

Simplified 

A glass of water for your skin.

Skin Priorities Addressed

  • Severe dehydration
  • Compromised moisture barrier
  • Dullness from dehydration
  • Fine dehydration lines
  • Lack of skin plumpness

How It Works

This intensive hydration serum works at multiple levels to restore optimal moisture. Snow mushroom extract, with molecules smaller than hyaluronic acid, penetrates deeply while holding 500 times its weight in water. Chlorophyll provides mineral-rich hydration while supporting cellular oxygenation for a healthy glow. Red algae creates a moisture-locking film on the skin's surface, preventing transepidermal water loss. HylaTech™ technology creates a three-dimensional moisture network, providing both immediate surface hydration and deep reservoir replenishment.

Snow Mushroom vs Hyaluronic Acid

Snow mushroom provides similar benefits to HA but with smaller molecules for deeper penetration and a more elegant texture.
