Time Revolution The First Essence Enriched

US stock

A fermentation-based first essence, the thin, watery step you press on right after cleansing to prep skin for everything that follows. This enriched version is a little more nourishing than the standard one, aimed at dull, dehydrated, or maturing skin that wants a softer, plumper feel.

More detail

It's built on a high concentration of Saccharomyces (yeast) ferment filtrate plus bifida ferment lysate, fermented ingredients rich in amino acids that hydrate and help smooth skin texture over time, with niacinamide to brighten and even tone and adenosine for firmness. The liquid is lightweight and slightly slippery, sinking in fast without any greasy film. Pour a few drops into your palms or onto a cotton pad and press it into damp skin as your first treatment step, morning and night, before serums and moisturizer. It's free of added fragrance and essential oils, so it tends to sit well with sensitive skin, though the fermented base is worth patch-testing if your skin is particularly reactive.
