by Neogen
Updated October 3, 2026
Fermented essence for hydration and calm; beloved daily staple.
What the community says
A fermented essence loaded with bifida, saccharomyces, rice ferment, and humectants for hydration plus a calmer-looking barrier. It fits people who want a lightweight extra layer; very dry skin may find it underwhelming alone.
