Product Headline
Providing a gentle peeling experience for those with sensitive or melanin-rich skin, this brightening peel’s ingredients include diglucosyl gallic acid, or THBG, an antioxidant that delivers bio-activated radiance and color correction for dull skin. Activated by skin microflora, the ingredient remains stable when in the tube until application, when it activates via eight different mechanisms to visibly refine pores and promote youthful skin. The ingredient also calms neuroinflammation, offering lasting hyperpigmentation correction. Also within the formula, hydroxyphenoxy propionic acid inhibits melanin release, evens tone, and slows photoaging, and is billed as outperforming kojic acid in whitening and antioxidative efficacy. And the peptide acetyl glycyl beta-alanine targets five stages of melanin synthesis, reducing dark spots, enhancing skin clarity, and preventing future pigmentation. Chiming with Re[Sens]’ slow beauty principles, the product is packaged in an aluminum tube, has a wooden cap, and its outer box is composed of biodegradable mycelium.

Diglucosyl Gallic Acid (THBG) delivers bio-activated radiance and color correction for dull, yellowing skin. Activated by skin microflora, it remains stable in its dormant form until application. Acting through 8 mechanisms, it visibly refines pores and promotes youthful skin. Melanocyte activity is neuron-linked; stress and pregnancy can trigger pigmentation, limiting traditional whitening. Water-soluble gallic acid calms neuroinflammation, offering fast, lasting hyperpigmentation correction. Hydroxyphenoxy Propionic Acid inhibits melanin release, evens tone, and slows photoaging. (R)-HPOPA outperforms kojic acid in whitening and antioxidative efficacy without cytotoxicity, strongly suppressing melanogenesis. Acetyl glycyl beta-alanine targets 5 stages of melanin synthesis, reducing dark spots, enhancing skin clarity, and preventing future pigmentation.

How does your product meet the evaluation criteria of its category?
MORE – IS NOT BETTER
The brand’s philosophy is rooted in the belief that an excess of ingredients overwhelms the skin. It’s like a person bombarded by too many stimuli at once—multitasking may be possible, but the result is often fatigue, apathy, and burnout.
We advocate for the «slow beauty» approach: gentle, mindful care that avoids overstimulation. And if there’s anything abundant in our formulas, it’s hydrating and soothing components.
This philosophy walks hand in hand with the increasingly popular «slow food» movement. Both approaches embrace:
― mindful consumption
― getting the result not at any cost
― ethical interaction with the world
What is you brand commitment to sustainability, ethical practices, and social responsibility? Please describe.
During brand development, the team focused on finding alternatives to plastic packaging, as the cosmetics industry ranks among the top global polluters due to its reliance on plastic.
Our current sustainable packaging solutions: an aluminum tube; a wooden cap with internal threading, handcrafted from woodworking waste; and instead of cardboard—a box made from mushroom mycelium
