If your skin feels tight, dehydrated, looks red, or reacts easily, this ampoule can help restore comfort and balance. It provides a burst of cooling hydration that sinks in quickly, leaving skin feeling plump and soothed without any sticky residue.

• Texture: A lightweight, watery gel that spreads easily.
• Key Benefit: Instantly boosts hydration while calming signs of sensitivity.
• Core Ingredients: 7 types of Hyaluronic Acid, Panthenol, Madecassoside, Allantoin, MLE® Technology.
• Best For: Oily, combination, dehydrated, and sensitive skin types.

1. Cleanser: Wash your face with a gentle cleanser.
2. This Ampoule: Apply 2-3 drops to your face and neck, patting gently.
3. Protect/Seal: Follow with sunscreen in the morning (AM) or a moisturiser at night (PM).

Mindful Tip: If you already have a hydrating serum, finish it first. Substitute this in its place rather than adding another layer.

• Minimalist (3 Steps): 1) Gentle Cleanser → 2) Aqua Soothing Ampoule → 3) Sunscreen (SPF 30+).
• Optional: If your sunscreen isn't hydrating enough, you can apply a light moisturiser before your SPF. Let the ampoule absorb for 30-60 seconds before the next step to prevent pilling.

• Minimalist (3 Steps): 1) Cleanser (use an oil cleanser first if removing makeup or water-resistant sunscreen) → 2) Aqua Soothing Ampoule → 3) Moisturiser.
• Optional: You can layer this ampoule before other treatments like a targeted serum for wrinkles or dark spots. Always apply from the thinnest to thickest texture.

• Amount: 2-3 drops is enough for the entire face and neck.
• Method: After cleansing and toning, dispense the drops onto your fingertips. Gently spread over your skin and pat lightly to help absorption.
• Frequency: Safe for daily use, both morning (AM) and night (PM).
• If-This / Then-That:
  • Very Oily Skin? This can be your main hydrator before sunscreen in the morning.
  • Feeling Dry/Dehydrated? Layer a richer cream on top at night to lock in the hydration, especially in air-conditioned rooms.
  • Sensitive Skin? The soothing ingredients are ideal, but always patch test first due to the presence of essential oils.
• Watchouts: Pilling can occur if you apply too much product or don't wait for it to absorb before your next step.
• Safety: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Discontinue use if a persistent rash or irritation occurs.

This is a gentle, daily-use product that supports other active ingredients.

• Daily: Use AM and PM after cleansing.
• When Using Actives: This ampoule is excellent for providing hydration and soothing support on nights you use stronger ingredients like exfoliants (AHA/BHA) or retinoids. Apply it before your active to buffer, or after to soothe.
• Example Week (with an exfoliant):
  • Mon/Wed/Fri/Sun: Cleanser → Aqua Soothing Ampoule → Moisturiser.
  • Tue/Sat (Exfoliation night): Cleanser → Exfoliating Acid → Aqua Soothing Ampoule (wait 10-15 mins after acid) → Moisturiser.
  • Thu (Retinoid night): Cleanser → Aqua Soothing Ampoule → Retinoid (wait for skin to be dry) → Moisturiser.

• Immediate: Skin feels instantly hydrated, cooled, and soothed. A feeling of tightness is relieved.
• 2-4 Weeks: With consistent use, skin appears plumper and feels more balanced. Redness and sensitivity may be visibly reduced.
• 4-8+ Weeks: The skin barrier feels stronger and more resilient, becoming less prone to irritation from environmental stressors.

• Myth: "Oily skin doesn't need hydration."
• Truth: Oily skin is often dehydrated, which can cause it to produce even more oil to compensate. A lightweight, oil-free hydrator like this ampoule provides the necessary water without adding grease, helping to balance sebum production over time. It's a much better choice than skipping hydration altogether.

• Works Well With: Vitamin C, Niacinamide, Retinoids, Exfoliating Acids (AHA, BHA), and most other common skincare ingredients. Its soothing properties make it a great companion for potentially irritating actives.
• Use With Caution: No major incompatibilities. Just be mindful of layering too many products at once to avoid pilling.
• Application Order: Apply after cleansing and any watery toners, but before thicker serums, creams, or oils.

• Oily & Combination: Excellent. Provides deep hydration without congesting pores or feeling heavy.
• Sensitive & Reactive: Very suitable due to its soothing complex, but a patch test is recommended as it contains natural essential oils for fragrance.
• Normal: A perfect daily hydrating serum to maintain skin health.
• Dry: A great hydrating layer, but you will need to follow up with a richer, more occlusive moisturiser to seal everything in.

• Dehydrated, "thirsty" skin that feels tight.
• Redness and irritation from sun exposure or sensitivity.
• A weakened or compromised skin barrier.
• Oily skin that is over-producing sebum due to lack of water.

Is this ampoule good for acne-prone skin?

Yes, it can be very beneficial. Its lightweight, oil-free hydration helps balance the skin without clogging pores, and its soothing ingredients can help calm inflammation associated with breakouts.

Can I use this with my Vitamin C serum?

Absolutely. Apply your Vitamin C serum first on clean, dry skin. Wait a minute or two, then apply the Aqua Soothing Ampoule on top for an added layer of hydration and antioxidant support.

What is the difference between this and a toner?

A toner is typically more watery and is used to balance the skin's pH after cleansing. An ampoule (or serum) is more concentrated with active ingredients to target specific concerns, in this case, deep hydration and soothing. You would use this after a toner and before a moisturiser.

• Best For: Individuals with oily, combination, or sensitive skin looking for a pure, lightweight hydrator that also calms irritation.
• Key Benefits: Instantly boosts moisture, soothes redness, absorbs without stickiness, and supports long-term skin barrier health.
• Keep in Mind: It contains natural essential oils, so a patch test is wise for highly reactive skin. Those with very dry skin will need to layer a cream over it for sufficient occlusion.
