How it works
This ampoule layers a three-herb redness complex, Phellodendron Amurense Bark Extract, Paeonia Lactiflora and Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract, over a Centella Asiatica and Madecassoside base, then finishes with five ceramide types and Sodium Hyaluronate so the calming actives settle in rather than evaporating off before they can work. Gluconolactone, a gentle PHA, keeps light resurfacing in the mix without the sting a glycolic or salicylic acid would bring to skin that is already reacting.
Key benefits
- Layers Phellodendron Amurense Bark Extract, Paeonia Lactiflora and Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract, a three-herb redness complex, over Centella Asiatica and Madecassoside.
- Finishes with five ceramide types plus Sodium Hyaluronate so the calming actives are sealed in rather than left to evaporate.
- Uses Gluconolactone, a gentle PHA, for light resurfacing with less sting than a glycolic or salicylic acid on reactive skin.
Key actives
propanediol
a multifunctional glycol that carries moisture and helps preserve the formula
Allantoin
a soothing agent that supports comfort on sensitised skin
Gluconolactone
a PHA that resurfaces with less irritation potential than a glycolic or salicylic acid
Squalane
a lightweight, non-comedogenic emollient that mimics skin's own lipids
Where does this go in a routine?
After toner, before moisturizer. It is a treatment step, not a replacement for either.
What does the calming complex in this ampoule actually do?
Phellodendron Amurense Bark Extract, Paeonia Lactiflora and Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract are the three herbal extracts Korean formulas reach for on skin that flushes, reddens or reacts easily, and here they sit alongside Centella Asiatica and Madecassoside for the same calming purpose.
Will the ceramides in this ampoule feel heavy under a serum-style texture?
No. The five ceramide types are carried in a thin, propanediol-based vehicle rather than a rich cream base, so the formula still absorbs quickly enough to sit under a moisturizer without pilling.

How to use
- Use after toner and before moisturizer, once daily or twice if your skin tolerates it well. Pat a few drops over the face and let it absorb before the next step.
Worth knowing
- Patch test first if skin is currently reacting to another new product, since introducing two changes at once makes it hard to trace which one caused it.

What skin-care professionals say about the key actives in this formula, quoted from the medical sources linked beside each.
Allantoin can tone down the dryness of the individual cells. It increases the water content of the skin, which means it helps to hydrate and moisturize.

This means that gluconolactone acts as an exfoliating acid, but also as a moisturizer. It has moisturizing, soothing, and lightening properties, working well on dry skin.
