Key Ingredients / Components

• Centella Asiatica (Cica Complex): Calms redness and supports barrier repair.

• PDRN (Salmon DNA Extract): Promotes regeneration and strengthens weakened or damaged skin.

• Exo-Pin Complex (Exosome-inspired actives): Enhances cell communication and accelerates skin recovery.

How It Works / Science

Bakuchiol stimulates collagen and increases cell turnover like retinol but remains gentle for sensitive or acne-prone skin. PDRN enhances skin repair at a cellular level, while Exo-Pin technology supports communication between skin cells to speed healing. Cica, mugwort, and tea tree calm inflammation. Niacinamide refines texture and brightens tone, while hyaluronic acid hydrates and strengthens the moisture barrier.
