The Essence
"The Essence is an essential preparation step that supports orneocytes — the cells that build the upper layer of the skin and show the signs of aging to help deliver clear, radiant, plump, and youthful-looking skin." —Professor Augustinus Bader
The breakthrough 3-in-1 formula combines the properties of a mild chemical exfoliant, a toner and an essence to reveal smoother, softer and more hydrated skin. Antioxidant wasabi ferment supports skin from environmental aggressors, while white peony flower helps to hydrate, soothe and protect from pollution. The result is a brighter, smoother complexion with a radiant, nourished glow.
