The actives,
annotated.

We don't do proprietary blends. Here are the actives we use, where they show up, and why they earn their slot.

01

Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid)

Brightens, defends
+

The most studied form of topical vitamin C, used at 15% and stabilized with Vitamin E and Ferulic Acid — the classic antioxidant trio — plus Kakadu Plum, one of the richest natural sources of vitamin C on record.

Found in · Vitamin C Brightening & Firming Face Serum

02

Hyaluronic Acid (Tri-weight)

Hydration, plumpness
+

A molecule that holds 1,000× its weight in water. We layer three molecular weights — ultra-low, low and high — so moisture lands at the dermis, the mid-layers and the surface film at once.

Found in · Deep Plumping Gel Cream · Pore Refining Treatment · Vitamin C Serum

03

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3)

Refines, calms
+

A multifunctional active that helps moderate sebum, soften the look of pores and even tone. Dosed to the job: 10% in the treatment, 4% in the spot treatment, and low supporting doses elsewhere to keep reactive skin comfortable.

Found in · Pore Refining Treatment · Clarifying Spot Treatment · Retinol Serum · Gel Cream

04

Salicylic Acid (BHA)

Clears congestion
+

The oil-soluble exfoliating acid that travels inside the pore. 2% in the spot treatment — the maximum non-prescription strength — 1% in the toner, and a 0.5% micro-dose in the pore treatment.

Found in · Clarifying Spot Treatment · Exfoliating Toner · Pore Refining Treatment

05

Glycolic Acid (AHA)

Resurfaces, brightens
+

The smallest molecule in the AHA family, with the best penetration of the group. Used at 5% and buffered to pH 3.8 — researched-effective, never harsh. Two to three evenings a week, not every night.

Found in · Exfoliating Toner

06

Ceramides (NP, AP, EOP)

Rebuilds the barrier
+

The three ceramides skin produces naturally, restocked in a 3:1:1 ratio mirrored from the stratum corneum and joined by cholesterol and squalane — the full lipid architecture of a healthy barrier.

Found in · Barrier Repair Moisture Cream

07

Centella Asiatica

Calms irritation
+

The herb dermatology reaches for after lasers and peels. We use 80% centella leaf water plus the standardized TECA complex — asiaticoside and madecassoside among its four active compounds — for redness and barrier support.

Found in · Soothing Recovery Gel · Exfoliating Toner · Moisture Cream

08

Peptide Complex

Firms, lifts
+

Five collagen-supporting peptides — Matrixyl 3000, Argireline, Syn-Coll and copper tripeptides among them — recruited for visible firmness and expression-line softening while you sleep.

Found in · Peptide Lifting & Firming Night Cream

09

Encapsulated Retinoids + Bakuchiol

Renews texture
+

Retinol and retinaldehyde in slow-release encapsulated forms, delivering true retinoid benefits with a gentler tolerance curve — paired with bakuchiol, the plant-based alternative that keeps sensitive skin on the program.

Found in · Retinol Overnight Renewal Serum · Peptide Night Cream

10

Antioxidant Botanical Oils

Repairs, softens
+

Cold-pressed rosehip, sea buckthorn and prickly pear — precursors of trans-retinoic acid, omega-7 and natural vitamin E — charged with astaxanthin and CoQ10 to counter the oxidative trace a day in the sun leaves behind.

Found in · Sun Damage Repair Facial Oil
