INGREDIENT LOG
We wanted our first dedicated facial moisturizer, AM/PM Modern Moisturizer, to check every box for every skin type: Beyond being remarkably efficacious and maintaining a healthy skin barrier, it has a beautiful texture and finish that’ll make you want to reach for it daily, morning and night.
Ceramides are a type of lipid naturally present in the skin known for their ability to support the skin barrier and retain moisture.
Glycerin, polyclycerides, linoleic acid and linolenic acid—all key skin hydrators—helping to provide essential moisture replenishment, retain water and maintain long term benefits.
Our Ferment-Peptide Complex is a snergistic peptide complex that strengthens the skin barrier and helps promote microbiota balance. It fortifies and protects the skin barrier which prevents dehydration for overall visual improvement.
While both ectoin and hyaluronic acid enhance skin moisture, hyaluronic acid primarily boosts hydration, while ectoin stabilizes and locks moisture in, making it especially beneficial for sensitive or dry skin prone to dehydration. Both ingredients can work synergistically together and provide long lasting hydration benefits.
Sun protection is one of the most essential parts of your daily skincare routine—but it’s easy to overlook the lips. Lips are among the most vulnerable areas on your face, yet typical sunscreen products rarely provide effective coverage for them.That's exactly why we created Lip Visor Broad-Spectrum SPF 30 Lip Balm: a lip sunscreen that protects, hydrates, and easily integrates into your daily routine
Physalis Angulata Extract is a natural extract that helps support lip volume and provide antioxidant protection.
Sorbeth-2 Hexaoleate is a polymer with core technology that encapsulates sunscreen filters to help shield them from external influences and significantly enhance their performance.
Bisabolol is an antioxidant derived from chamomile known for its soothing and antioxidant properties.
Silicone is one of the most recommended ingredients for scar care because it hydrates skin, supports collagen balance, and protects the healing area. The Scar Solutions Silicone Scar Stick makes it easier to stay consistent, which is essential for effective scar treatment.
Our 5% Ectoin Cream is a steroid-free solution designed to rescue you on those days when nothing else in your skincare routine can. Think of it as something you might keep in a beauty First Aid kit: You’ll want it when your skin is more symptomatic and needs extra attention. It can alleviate sensitivity, scaling, roughness, redness and irritation—all while moisturizing and restoring your compromised skin barrier. Use it on flare-ups for targeted relief.Â
Ectoin is an amino acid derivative that acts as a high-end, clinically proven active ingredient to help protect skin from dehydration and various external stressors such as free radicals, air pollution, and climate concerns and promote skin barrier improvements. Suitable for all skin types including sensitive skin.
Allantoin is a compound that can be found in several plants, such as comfrey, chamomile, and wheat sprouts. In topical medical treatments, it's used to promote wound healing and in skincare, allantoin is recognized for its soothing, moisturizing and keratolytic (skin-softening) properties.Â
Urea + Hydroxyethyl Urea is a synergistic blend that hydrates while supporting skin renewal to reduce skin roughness.
Both ectoin and niacinamide support the skin barrier - though they work differently to do so. Ectoin supports the skin barrier by binding moisture to the skin and creating a film on the skin that prevents water loss. Niacinamide helps to facilitate the production of ceramides and elastin, two critical parts of the skin barrier; it helps support the skin's natural shield.
