A lightweight, water-textured vegan moisturizer that gives instant, long-lasting hydration from the first application. The watery gel-cream melts into the skin and absorbs fast, with no stickiness, greasy residue, or heaviness. Skin looks smooth, plump, dewy, and comfortably hydrated, and the finish layers well under makeup. It is made with 70% bamboo (bambusa vulgaris) water, 10,000ppm panthenol, a multi-molecular hyaluronic acid complex, and marine algae extracts. These hydrate, soothe tightness and dryness, and support the moisture barrier, and guaiazulene gives it a natural blue hue and calms stressed skin. The brand reports clinical testing for hydration, soothing, and non-comedogenic safety. It suits all skin types, especially dehydrated, sensitive, normal, and combination skin, and it is vegan.
Key ingredients:
-
Bamboo water (70%): refreshing, mineral-rich hydration for sensitive skin
-
Panthenol (10,000ppm): reinforces the barrier and helps prevent moisture loss
-
Multi-molecular hyaluronic acid and polyglutamic acid: long-lasting hydration at multiple levels
-
Marine algae extracts (codium, palmaria, chondrus, sargassum): nourish and keep moisture balanced
-
Guaiazulene: soothes irritation and redness
-
Vegan PDRN, green caviar, and marine milk extracts (per some retailers): support visible plumpness and elasticity
How to use: After cleansing, toner, and serum, apply an appropriate amount to the face and neck as the last or second-to-last step of your routine. Spread and pat until absorbed. Use morning and night, or any time your skin needs a moisture boost. It pairs with Dr.Althea's Aqua Marine Deep Serum. In the morning, finish with sunscreen.
Best for: Dehydration, tightness, dull or tired-looking skin, and a light daily moisturizer for sensitive or combination skin.
