Key Ingredients — What They Do
Oryza Sativa (Rice) Seed Water (30%) — The formula's hero ingredient. Vitamin and mineral-rich rice seed water provides lightweight yet deeply effective hydration, brightens uneven skin tone, and delivers antioxidant protection against environmental damage. Used for centuries in Korean and Japanese beauty traditions as a natural "beauty water."
Panthenol (Vitamin B5) — A powerful humectant that attracts and binds water to the skin, providing long-lasting moisture without heaviness. It also soothes redness and irritation caused by UV exposure and helps repair and reinforce the skin's natural protective barrier.
Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Extract — Derived from colloidal oatmeal, this clinically recognized ingredient calms inflammation, reduces redness, and softens the skin's texture. The starches bind water to maintain hydration, while its fiber content supports barrier function.
Ceramide NP — One of the essential lipids naturally found in the skin's barrier. Ceramide NP replenishes moisture, strengthens the skin's outer layer, and helps prevent water loss, making it especially beneficial for dry or damaged skin types.
Beta-Glucan — A skin-identical polysaccharide with exceptional water-binding capacity. It visibly plumps the skin, supports collagen production, and provides calming, anti-inflammatory benefits — often compared to hyaluronic acid in efficacy.
Cynara Scolymus (Artichoke) Leaf Extract — A Mediterranean plant extract rich in antioxidants, vitamins C and K, and minerals. Studies show it visibly improves skin tone, reduces the appearance of dullness, and offers strong free-radical protection.
Camellia Sinensis Leaf Water — Green tea distillate rich in polyphenols and catechins. It delivers antioxidant protection, reduces inflammation, helps balance sebum production, and supports an even, calmer complexion.
Ferulic Acid — A plant-derived antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals caused by UV and pollution. It also enhances the effectiveness of other antioxidants in the formula, including Vitamin E.
Tocopherol (Vitamin E) — An oil-soluble antioxidant that protects the skin from oxidative stress, conditions the skin surface, and helps maintain a smooth, soft texture.
Inositol — A B-vitamin complex that hydrates, strengthens the skin barrier, and supports healthy cell turnover for a smoother, more refined complexion.
Sunscreen Filters — Broad-Spectrum UV Protection
Ethylhexyl Triazone — New-generation UVB filter offering the highest photostable absorption of available UVB blockers. Odorless, colorless, and highly stable in sunlight.
Drometrizole Trisiloxane (Mexoryl XL) — Broad-spectrum UVA + UVB filter that is highly photostable and offers excellent skin feel. One of the most advanced UV filters available outside the US.
Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate (Uvinul A Plus) — Targets deep UVA I rays, providing critical protection against photoaging and DNA damage.
Terephthalylidene Dicamphor Sulfonic Acid (Mexoryl SX) — A water-soluble UVA filter offering reliable, photostable protection against UVA II rays. Works synergistically with other filters for well-rounded coverage.
Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine (Tinosorb S) — Considered one of the most effective broad-spectrum UV absorbers available globally. Covers UVA and UVB with exceptional photostability and a clean safety profile.
