WHY COMBINED THIS WAY
MALE SKIN
Male skin: -28% ceramides in the stratum corneum compared to female skin, accelerated transepidermal water loss (TEWL), marked tightness post-shave. Three coordinated levels of hydration are required: superficial, deep, structural.
ACTIVE SYNERGY
Pullulan forms an instant tensing film (a 'lifting' effect perceptible to the touch within 60 seconds). Pentavitin® 1.5% binds to keratinocytes and delivers progressive hydration for up to 72 hours — reducing TEWL by 26% in 14 days. Hydrolysed marine collagen 2% (MW <3 kDa) penetrates to the superficial dermis and redensifies the extracellular matrix.
ROLE IN ROUTINE
Step 02 · AM (and PM in the Hydration and Anti-Age Routines). Apply after CLEANSE on still-damp skin (maximum penetration) and before PROTECT+ — SPF should never be the first layer applied over dehydrated skin.
