GALACTOMYCES - Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate (GFF) is a derivative of fermented sake that has proven skin care benefits, including reducing the appearance of pores, blackheads and sebum; decreasing levels of acne; and improving skin brightness.
NIACINAMIDE - Niacinamide helps skin retain moisture, increases antioxidant activity to improve overall texture, increases production of ceramides to fortify the skin barrier, reduces appearance of fine lines, and evens out skin tone. Sensitive-skin friendly.
