The Science-y Stuff (Why it works):

We formulated this serum as a lightweight emulsion using biocompatible lipids (Argan and Jojoba oils) to deliver water-soluble actives directly into the epidermis without clogging pores or leaving a heavy residue. Ginsenosides (from Ginseng extract) and methylxanthines (from Caffeine) work at the cellular level to stimulate microcirculation and encourage vasoconstriction, which visibly reduces puffiness and restores vitality to stagnant skin cells. Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) strengthens the skin barrier by stimulating ceramide production while actively inhibiting melanosome transfer to diminish hyperpigmentation and balance sebum production. We pair this with Vitamin C to neutralize free radicals (ROS) and support collagen synthesis, while low-molecular-weight Hydrolyzed Silk Protein (Sericin/Fibroin peptides) acts as a film-forming humectant, binding moisture directly to the skin surface.

Key Actives & Biomolecules:

• Ginsenosides (triterpenoid saponins for microcirculation)

• Methylxanthines / Caffeine (vasoconstricting alkaloid)

• Niacinamide / Vitamin B3 (Pyridine-3-carboxamide for ceramide synthesis & melanosome inhibition)

• Ascorbic Acid / Vitamin C (antioxidant & collagen-synthesis cofactor)

• Hydrolyzed Silk Peptides (Sericin & Fibroin amino acids for moisture-binding)

• Oleic & Gadoleic Fatty Acids (lipid barrier replenishment from Argan & Jojoba)

Apply a small (pea-sized) amount to clean, damp skin once or twice a day, as desired. Gently smooth over the face and neck, focusing on areas where you wish to ease puffiness, brighten or even skin tone. Allow the serum to fully absorb into a matte finish before applying your moisturizer or make-up. 

Our skin care products are always made in small batches, and are often made to order. This may add an additional 3-4 days for production before your order ships.
