Designed for blemish-prone skin — an anti-ageing daily crème that delivers without triggering breakouts. Three clinically proven actives and a skin-identical oil phase that works at the cellular level. All the benefits, none of the compromise.
A crème — richer than a moisturiser, lighter than a traditional face cream. Engineered for skin showing visible ageing and breakout-prone tendencies — a combination most "anti-ageing" formulas refuse to address.
Bakuchiol delivers retinol-equivalent collagen stimulation without sensitisation. Neurophroline™ blocks cortisol before it breaks collagen down. Cacay Oil — three times the natural retinol of rosehip — supports renewal without congesting pores. Available in 60g daily-use and 30g travel size.
Real percentages. Clinically validated concentrations.

Smooths texture and reduces fine lines — retinol-equivalent activity without irritation or photosensitivity.1
Clinically shown to reduce fine lines by 19.6% after 12 weeks at 0.5–1%.

Reduces cortisol-driven inflammation and supports barrier recovery in stressed skin.2
Clinically shown to reduce skin reactivity markers after 28 days.

Strengthens the barrier, evens tone, reduces redness and sebum production.4
Formulated within the clinically proven effective range of 2–5%.
Daily, AM and/or PM.
Apply a pea-sized amount after serum and before SPF. Press into the face, neck, and décolletage. Designed for daily use — Bakuchiol is photo-stable, so it can be worn under SPF without degradation.
