Mugwort essence for redness and irritation; calming, watery, and very light.

What the community says

A thin mugwort essence with just water, Artemisia Princeps Extract, and 1,2-Hexanediol. People use it for calming redness, post-actives irritation, and light hydration; dry skin may still need something heavier underneath.
