Science & Benefits

Mesembryanthemum Crystallinum, or Ice Plant, is a succulent that has developed specialized 'water bladders' on its surface to store moisture. The extract is rich in polyols (like pinitol) and flavonoids that provide intensive, cooling hydration. In skincare, it acts as a high-performance humectant that 'mimics' the skin's natural moisturizing factors to prevent transepidermal water loss. It is specifically designed to soothe the burning or itching sensations associated with a compromised barrier or inflammatory acne. It is zero-comedogenic and zero-irritant, providing a weightless, refreshing moisture reservoir that keeps the skin stabilized and hydrated throughout the day.
