How it works
This serum is a treatment-step formula, thin enough to layer under a moisturizer without pilling. Centella Asiatica Extract and Houttuynia Cordata Extract handle the calming, with Beta-Glucan and Trehalose carrying the water-binding underneath the eggplant extract the product is named for.
Key benefits
- Treatment-step serum layered between toner and moisturizer
- Built on Centella Asiatica and Houttuynia Cordata alongside the eggplant extract
- Beta-Glucan and Trehalose for the water-binding

How to use
- Apply after toner while the surface is damp so the layer spreads across the whole face.
- Pat a generous amount in with your palms rather than rubbing it around.
- Follow with a moisturiser, since a thin ampoule cannot hold water in on its own.
- Do not use it in place of an exfoliant, because a clearing ampoule works on comfort rather than turnover.
