The ritual it lives inside
Cleanse, wake, hydrate — the morning reset.
The Read
A concentrate you mix into your moisturizer — caffeine at 1% in a glycerin and algin gel. The 20ml size is for travel, samplers, or a first try.
It constricts surface vessels and improves microcirculation, so puffiness — especially around the eyes — visibly settles, and its antioxidant action helps the morning skin look less tired. The effect is real but temporary: it freshens and de-puffs rather than treating anything permanently. Glycerin holds water for hydration; the formula is alcohol-forward, so very sensitive or dry skin should patch first.
Mix 1–3 drops into your face or eye cream and apply as usual. Mornings, as needed — for the days you wake puffy or tired.
The proof
Every claim pinned to its source.
De-puffing · the active
1%
A vasoconstrictor and antioxidant that tightens surface vessels and lifts microcirculation, so fluid-driven puffiness visibly settles and tired skin looks more awake. The benefit is cosmetic and temporary — it freshens the morning, it doesn't remodel skin.

Hydration
A humectant that draws and holds water at the surface, offsetting the alcohol base so skin reads fresh rather than dried — with algin adding a light, smoothing film.
