Products (2)

• Firming Bouncy Boost Serum — Collagen + PDRN + ACT Capsule™ in a two-phase serum that firms pores and bounces skin back — with 8 types of hyaluronic acid and bakuchiol as a retinol alternative.
• Barrier Glass Gel Cream — A lightweight gel cream that delivers 5 ceramides and panthenol for barrier repair while leaving a glass-skin finish — not greasy, not matte, just luminous.

Notable Ingredients

• Niacinamide — Inhibits melanosome transfer for brightening, boosts ceramide production for barrier strength, and regulates sebum production — directly addressing the pore-firming claim.
• Sodium DNA (PDRN) — Activates adenosine A2A receptors on fibroblasts, triggering collagen synthesis and anti-inflammatory signaling. The same molecule used in Korean dermatology clinic injections for decades, now in topical form.
• Soluble Collagen — Too large to penetrate into the dermis, but forms a moisture-retaining film on the surface that plumps and smooths the skin texture. Works as the 'bouncy' factor in this serum.
• 8-Type Hyaluronic Acid Complex — Includes sodium hyaluronate (standard), hydrolyzed HA (small, penetrates deeper), potassium hyaluronate, crosspolymer HA (long-lasting), acetylated HA (lipophilic, binds to cells), dimethylsilanol HA, and more. Each form works at a different depth for multi-layer hydration.
• Bakuchiol — Activates retinoid receptors similarly to retinol but without the irritation, peeling, or sun sensitivity. Clinical studies show comparable anti-wrinkle and firming results after 12 weeks of use.
• Fullerene — A soccer ball-shaped carbon molecule (C60) with antioxidant capacity 172x stronger than vitamin C. Neutralizes free radicals without being consumed in the process — meaning it keeps working long after application.
