How to use
- Cleanse and tone, then apply this while the skin is still slightly damp so it spreads without dragging.
- Use one or two pumps for the whole face and press it in with flat palms rather than rubbing in circles.
- Wait until the surface feels tacky rather than wet, then put your moisturiser on top.
- Do not use it as your only layer on dry skin, since a light fluid left uncovered is the first thing to evaporate.
Where does this sit in a routine?
After toner or essence and before moisturizer, as a concentrated middle step rather than the first thing applied to unprepped skin. If your skin reacts in a way that feels off, stop use and give your skin a few days to settle before trying it again.
Can I use it under makeup?
Yes, let it fully absorb before applying the rest of your routine and any makeup, rather than layering on top of a wet serum. If your skin reacts in a way that feels off, stop use and give your skin a few days to settle before trying it again.
How much should I apply?
A small amount, about the size of a coin, covers the face and neck; more product does not absorb any faster. If your skin reacts in a way that feels off, stop use and give your skin a few days to settle before trying it again.
Can I mix it with other serums?
Introduce it gradually alongside other actives rather than combining several new products at once, so any reaction is easy to trace. If your skin reacts in a way that feels off, stop use and give your skin a few days to settle before trying it again.
Morning, night, or both?
Many people use it both morning and night, though starting once a day and building up is a reasonable way to test your skin's response. If your skin reacts in a way that feels off, stop use and give your skin a few days to settle before trying it again.

22 of 24 explained
- Water solvent
- Water is the base almost every serum, toner and cream is built on. It dissolves the water-loving ingredients and sets how light the finished texture feels. On an INCI list it is usually first, which only means it is the largest single ingredient by weight.
- methylpropanediol humectant
- Methylpropanediol is a small glycol used to hydrate and to help water-soluble actives penetrate the outer layer of skin more evenly. It leaves almost no tack, which suits watery textures.
- cyclopentasiloxane silicone
- Cyclopentasiloxane is a volatile silicone: it spreads a formula thin and smooth then evaporates, leaving no residue. It is the silicone behind a dry, powdery primer finish.
- 1,2-hexanediol humectant
- 1,2-Hexanediol is a glycol used for two reasons: it holds water like glycerin, and it makes a formula harder for microbes to live in, so less traditional preservative is needed. Korean formulas use it heavily for that second reason.
- alcohol solvent
- Alcohol here means ethanol. It dissolves ingredients water cannot, evaporates fast so a formula sets quickly and does not feel heavy, and thins texture. In quantity it can leave dry or reactive skin feeling tight, which is why many Korean formulas avoid it and some deliberately use it for a fast, weightless finish.
- cyclohexasiloxane silicone
- Cyclohexasiloxane is a volatile silicone used for a light, fast-spreading feel that leaves nothing behind.
- polyglyceryl-3 methylglucose distearate emulsifier
- Polyglyceryl-3 Methylglucose Distearate is a sugar-derived emulsifier known for a light, non-soapy feel. It builds gel-creams that do not read as rich.
- camellia sinensis leaf extract plant extract
- Camellia Sinensis is the tea plant. Green tea leaf extract carries catechins, among the most studied plant antioxidants, and is used for the look of redness and oily shine.
- dimethicone/vinyl dimethicone crosspolymer silicone
- This is a silicone elastomer, a soft springy gel. It fills the look of fine texture and gives the velvety, blurred finish of a primer.
- hydroxyethyl acrylate/sodium acryloyldimethyl taurate copolymer thickener
- This is the thickener behind most gel-cream textures. It builds a soft, bouncy gel that collapses to a light fluid as it is rubbed in.
- ammonium acryloyldimethyltaurate/vp copolymer thickener
- This is a synthetic thickener that gels quickly and holds an emulsion stable across a wide pH range. It gives a light, non-tacky body.
- acrylates/c10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer thickener
- This is a carbomer relative with fatty side chains, so it thickens and stabilises an emulsion at the same time. It gives a light gel-cream body rather than a heavy one.
10 more explained
- hydrogenated olive oil unsaponifiables barrier lipid
- The fraction of olive oil that will not turn into soap, which is the sterols, squalene and vitamin E, concentrated and hardened. It is a rich barrier lipid.
- tromethamine pH adjuster
- Tromethamine neutralises acidic thickeners such as carbomer so they gel, and holds a formula near skin-friendly pH. It is used at a fraction of a percent.
- linalool fragrance component
- Linalool is a floral aromatic found in lavender, bergamot and coriander. It is one of the 26 fragrance components EU labelling requires to be declared by name.
- limonene fragrance component
- Limonene is the citrus-peel aromatic. It appears here because EU labelling requires 26 fragrance components to be named individually rather than hidden inside "fragrance", and it is one of them.
- polysorbate 60 emulsifier
- Polysorbate 60 is a water-loving emulsifier used with a fatty co-emulsifier to build stable lotions and creams.
- sorbitan isostearate emulsifier
- Sorbitan Isostearate is a mild emulsifier that holds water into oil, the direction a cleansing balm or an oil-based cream needs.
- disodium edta chelator
- EDTA is a chelator: it locks up trace metal ions from water and packaging that would otherwise turn a formula cloudy, off-colour or rancid. It does nothing to skin and appears at a fraction of a percent.
- citrus limon (lemon) peel oil fragrance
- Cold-pressed lemon peel oil. Citrus peel oils carry limonene and can make skin more sensitive to sunlight, which is why leave-on formulas use them sparingly.
- fragrance fragrance
- Fragrance, or Parfum, is a single declaration standing for a whole scent blend, which can be dozens of materials. Regulators allow it as a trade secret, so a list showing only this word does not say what the scent is made of. It is the most common trigger named by people with reactive skin.
- ethyl ascorbyl ether vitamin
- A vitamin C derivative with an ethyl group on the third position, the same molecule usually written 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid. The ether makes it far more stable in water than pure ascorbic acid.

How it works
Camellia sinensis leaf extract is named on the ingredient panel on this serum. Camellia Sinensis is the tea plant. Green tea leaf extract carries catechins, among the most studied plant antioxidants, and is used for the look of redness and oily shine. On this panel it sits alongside hydrogenated olive oil unsaponifiables. The fraction of olive oil that will not turn into soap, which is the sterols, squalene and vitamin E, concentrated and hardened. It is a rich barrier lipid.
Worth knowing
- Introduce a new serum gradually rather than adding several new actives at once, so any reaction is easy to trace.
- Introduce any new product gradually rather than adding several new steps to a routine at once, so any reaction is easy to trace back to the right cause.
