A watery essence built on a 30-day rice ferment. It floods damp skin with amino acids and lightweight humectants so that whatever you layer next has something to work with. Nothing tacky, nothing left sitting on the surface.

What it does

  • Skin holds water for longer, so tightness stops returning by mid-afternoon
  • Makes the ampoule and serum that follow noticeably more effective
  • Sinks in fast enough to layer within seconds

Key ingredients

  • Fermented rice water

    30-day ferment rich in amino acids and natural niacinamide.

  • 5-weight hyaluronic acid

    Five molecular sizes so hydration reaches more than the surface.

  • Panthenol 5%

    Pro-vitamin B5 that speeds barrier recovery.

How to use

  1. Step 1

    Decant three or four drops into damp palms straight after cleansing.

  2. Step 2

    Press into the face rather than rubbing, working outwards from the centre.

  3. Step 3

    Move on to the next step while skin is still slightly damp.
