WHY WE LOVE IT

A bi-phase "matcha latte" essence — shake to merge a 71% green tea water layer with a lipid-rich cream layer — that hydrates, gently exfoliates, and floods skin with antioxidants in a single easy step.

Before you use it, give it a shake; this one separates into two distinct layers by design. The clear green tea water phase and the milky cream phase combine into a soft, silky texture that absorbs quickly with no stickiness. It sits in your routine between toner and moisturiser, but it punches well above its weight for a single step: it hydrates, it gently resurfaces, it delivers antioxidant protection, and it preps skin to absorb everything that follows more effectively.

The bi-phase structure isn't just a gimmick: it mimics the skin's own lipid-and-water barrier architecture, which is why it absorbs so readily and locks hydration in rather than just sitting on the surface. Jeju island matcha is the star ingredient here, sourced from the same volcanic soil that makes Jeju-derived ingredients so prized in K-beauty: rich in catechins, EGCG, and anti-inflammatory compounds. Alongside it, PHA and LHA do quiet daily exfoliation work — loosening dead skin cells and impurities gently enough for daily use without sensitising the skin — while a nine-peptide complex supports elasticity and the look of fine lines in the background.

Key Ingredients

Jeju Matcha + Green Tea Water (71%): Purified water is replaced entirely with green tea water from Jeju, delivering catechins and EGCG — potent antioxidants that neutralise free radicals, calm inflammation, and give skin a visibly brighter, clearer appearance over time

PHA + LHA: Two gentle exfoliating acids with large molecular structures, meaning they work mostly at the surface — dissolving impurities, tightening pores, and smoothing texture without the irritation risk of AHAs or BHAs, making them safe for daily use and sensitive skin

9-peptide complex: Nine peptides including copper tripeptide-1 and palmitoyl tripeptide-1 that collectively support collagen production, improve skin elasticity, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and assist with skin repair and regeneration

HOW TO USE

Shake the bottle to blend the phases, then dispense into your hands and press into skin before moisturisers. Can also be used as moisturiser for oilier skin types.
