Fundamental Water Gel Cream

Korea ranking #38 moisturizerUS stock

A lightweight gel-cream that sinks in fast and leaves skin hydrated with barely any weight or shine. Green tea water and panthenol form the base, giving it a fresh, soothing feel that suits oily and combination skin or hot, humid weather. It's free of fragrance and alcohol, an easy pick for skin that reacts to either.

More detail

In place of plain water, the base is Jeju green tea leaf water, joined by glycerin, panthenol and hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid to draw in and hold moisture. Calming plant extracts like centella, mugwort and rice sit alongside phytosphingosine and vitamin E to help keep the skin barrier comfortable. The texture is a true water-gel: it spreads thin, absorbs quickly and finishes closer to matte than dewy, so it layers well under sunscreen or makeup. Smooth a small amount over cleansed skin morning and night as your last hydrating step. It's made without added fragrance, essential oils or alcohol; the trade-off is that the light finish may not feel like enough for very dry skin, especially in winter.
