How nano-encapsulation works, plainly

An active ingredient is only useful if it stays intact until you apply it. Some don't. Vitamin C can oxidise in the bottle, and some acids feel harsh when they sit on the skin's surface.

Nano-encapsulation wraps each active in a tiny, lipid-compatible shell. That shell helps protect the active from air and light, and helps release it gradually after application, so the formula can feel gentle on skin.

Same familiar actives, packaged differently, so they stay stable in the bottle and comfortable on your skin.
