The Benefits

Cleansing

Cleansing involves using active cleansing agents to penetrate your skin and pores, breaking down and removing daily impurities, pollution particles, excess sebum, and makeup. Thoroughly cleansed skin renews and regenerates itself more effectively and absorbs follow-up products and active ingredients better.

Skin Barrier Strengthening

Strengthening your skin barrier involves replenishing the key elements in the top layer of your skin (stratum corneum), leading to a stronger and healthier barrier. These essential elements include lipids (ceramides, fatty acids, and cholesterol) and Natural Moisturizing Factors (amino acids, hyaluronic acid, etc.). Various factors, such as incorrect skincare use, seasonal changes, and aesthetic treatments, can damage your skin barrier. When this happens, your skin loses excess water through Trans Epidermal Water Loss (T.E.W.L) and becomes less capable of defending against environmental stressors, resulting in dryness, sensitivity, and irritation.

A healthy skin barrier is crucial for overall skin health as it helps prevent hydration loss, protects against environmental damage, and reduces the risk of skin conditions like eczema and acne. By strengthening your skin barrier, you ensure your skin remains well-hydrated, resilient, and protected.

Pore Tightening & Minimising

Pore minimising involves reducing the appearance of enlarged pores. Enlarged pores often result from excess oil production and accumulated impurities, which stretch them over time. ageing also plays a role, as reduced skin elasticity makes pores more visible. Pore-minimising formulas tackle these issues by regulating oil production and boosting collagen and elastin to enhance skin elasticity. This helps pores return to their natural, less noticeable shape, giving your skin a smoother, more refined look.

Purifying

Purifying your skin means removing impurities, reducing excess oil, and deep cleansing to minimise a greasy or shiny appearance and prevent breakouts. This process leaves your skin clearer, more balanced, and looking fresh.

Anti-Inflammatory

Anti-Inflammatory skincare soothes, heal, and balance your skin, the targeted actives are designed to reduce inflammation. Inflammation is your body's natural response to injury or irritation, but continuous inflammation can lead to troublesome skin conditions like acne, rosacea, or eczema. Our anti-inflammatory skincare solutions work to soothe and calm your skin, reducing redness, swelling, and discomfort to provide much-needed relief. By strengthening your skin's barrier, these products help protect against further irritation and damage. Additionally, the anti-inflammatory actives support your skin's natural healing processes, leading to a more balanced and resilient complexion.

Soothing

When your skin is sensitive or weakened due to genetics, skin conditions, using incorrect skincare products, or harsh weather, it needs extra care to repair and strengthening. Soothing ingredients with anti-inflammatory properties can reduce redness and irritation while strengthening the skin barrier, making it more resilient and protected against external aggressors.

Anti-Ageing (Senescence)

The advancement in anti-ageing skincare now enables us to combat cellular senescence—a state where cells stop dividing but remain metabolically active, continuing processes like protein synthesis. This means that while these cells no longer contribute to tissue renewal, they still engage in metabolic activities, producing proteins and other molecules that can affect the surrounding tissue. Skin senescence is triggered by factors such as stress, poor diet, lack of sleep, DNA damage, inflammation, and genetic predisposition. Over time, the accumulation of these senescent cells accelerates ageing by secreting harmful compounds that cause inflammation and damage surrounding tissues and cells. Innovative technologies in anti-ageing skincare can now target cellular senescence using advanced actives to inhibit senescence-associated markers and promote cell regeneration. By regenerating skin cells, these products reduce visible signs of ageing, such as wrinkles, sagging, and discoloration, while enhancing skin resilience and overall health.

Active Ingredients

Rhamnose

Rhamnose is a protective sugar obtained by a bacterial fermentation. It soothes irritated skin after exposure to UV, pollution or harsh ingredients. Rhamnose limits cell message propagation, acting as a decoy to reduce inflammation and protecting cells from further damage.

Cleansing Bio-Polysaccharide

Cleansing Bio-Polysaccharide is a surfactant made up of different saccharides, which are sugars. It functions as a cleanser that removes impurities from the skin's surface with both gentle and thorough actions. Additionally, it offers protective benefits to the skin and helps to reduce inflammation, making it suitable for maintaining skin health while cleansing effectively.

Grapefruit Essential Oil

Grapefruit Essential Oil has been used for over 4,000 years for its therapeutic qualities. It provides a deep cleanse, removing daily impurities and leaving the skin clearer and purified.

Mint Essential Oil

Mint Essential Oil is known for its medicinal properties. It has a toning and astringent (tightening) effect, helping to minimise the appearance of enlarged pores on the skin while enhancing the skin's natural radiance.

Soothing Hexapeptide

Soothing Hexapeptide, made up of six amino acids, is formulated to be exceptionally gentle on sensitive skin. It works by blocking the PAR-2 receptor, which is responsible for triggering inflammatory responses and itching in the skin. By inhibiting this receptor, the peptide effectively reduces discomfort and itchiness, while also calming redness and irritation. Moreover, it supports the skin's barrier function, boosting its ability to withstand external irritants and enhancing overall resilience.

Moisturising Molecular Film

The Moisturising Molecular Film consists of sugars and peptides that form a protective layer on the skin's surface. This film helps to strengthen the skin's barrier, keeping moisture in and environmental stressors out. It effectively provides sustained hydration, ensuring the skin remains moisturised over time.

Complex of Hyaluronic Acid & Rhizobium

The "Complex of Hyaluronic Acid & Rhizobium" contains a high molecular weight Hyaluronic Acid which is designed to remain on the surface of the skin, and forms a barrier to reduce Trans Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL). Whilst, the Rhizobium gel acts like a water reservoir, retaining all the hydration they have accumulated. The result is a newly formed water barrier, which is supple, flexible and non-comedogenic (does not clog pores).

"Living Stone" Stem Cells

Living Stone Stem Cells, sourced from resilient succulents, are celebrated for their unique ability to manage water and light. This pioneering ingredient is designed to enhance skin health by harnessing nature’s adaptive strategies. Living Stone Stem Cells work to optimise hydration, improve skin texture, and boost Vitamin D levels, strengthening the skin’s barrier function. This ingredient is particularly effective against dryness, dullness, and the signs of ageing, leaving the skin feeling supple, soothed, and restored. Living Stone Stem Cells are rich in hyaluronic-like bio-sugars that promote the formation of the Glycocalyx—a protective layer surrounding each cell. This layer plays a crucial role in maintaining a favourable skin environment by optimising hydration and enhancing light absorption. Increased light passage through the skin helps boost Vitamin D levels, which fortifies the skin barrier and combats glycation. Glycation, the harmful binding of reducing sugars to proteins, leads to advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) that cause wrinkles, loss of elasticity, dullness, and reduced skin function. With regular use, Living Stone Stem Cells deeply hydrate the skin, making it feel soft, supple, and revitalised. Users often report a noticeable improvement in skin radiance and texture, as well as a reduction in the appearance of fine lines. Living Stone Stem Cells provide a soothing and restorative experience, effectively addressing dryness and dullness. By incorporating this ingredient into your skincare routine, you’ll enjoy a revitalised, hydrated complexion that feels stronger and looks more youthful.

    I have combination, acne-prone skin and love this micellar water. It effectively cleanses my skin removing any excess makeup, eye makeup or sunscreen. The 100ml size is very travel-friendly as it is compact and fits nicely into my toiletry bag. I would repurchase the bigger bottle next time.
