Galac Niacin 2.0 Essence
A watery, fast-absorbing essence that's almost entirely galactomyces ferment, paired with a solid dose of niacinamide to brighten and even out tone. It pats in quickly and leaves skin smooth and lightly dewy. A good early-routine step for dull, uneven, or texture-prone skin that wants glow without weight.
More detail
The formula is 93.69% galactomyces ferment filtrate — a yeast-derived ingredient used to brighten and refine the look of skin — with niacinamide at 4% to even tone, soften the marks left by past breakouts, and support the barrier. Panthenol, sodium hyaluronate, and a little witch hazel water and glutathione round it out. The texture is thin and water-like, so it layers easily: apply it after cleansing and toner and before your serums, morning and night, patting a few drops into the skin. It's alcohol-free with no added fragrance or essential oils. Because it's built on a very high concentration of ferment, anyone whose skin has reacted to fermented ingredients before should patch test first.
