WHY IT WORKS

Four hero actives.

One lasting shield.

Silkdrop replenishes hydration. Skin Shield helps hold it there — with Ectoin, Pentavitin®, Bakuchiol and CoQ10, plus Beta-Glucan, Panthenol, Squalane, Meadowfoam and Jojoba.

Ectoin + Pentavitin®
  • ECTOIN
  • BARRIER
  • COMFORT

01.

Ectoin + Pentavitin®

Supports the moisture barrier under everyday stress and helps hydration stay with the skin, reducing that tight feeling through the day.

Bakuchiol + CoQ10
  • BAKUCHIOL
  • COQ10
  • VITAMIN E

02.

Bakuchiol + CoQ10

Bakuchiol supports smoother, more refined-looking skin over time; CoQ10 adds antioxidant support against everyday oxidative stress.

Protection without heaviness
  • HEAT
  • WIND
  • AIR-CON
