Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read
Read on 2026-09-21
What is this product?
A jelly-type hydrating mist built on 100,000ppm sea water with three forms of hyaluronic acid near the end of the list, and no fragrance or drying alcohol detected.
What makes it different?
Sea water sits second, right after purified water, at a disclosed 100,000ppm, which shapes the mineral-based hydrating concept. The hyaluronic acid family (hyaluronic acid, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid, sodium hyaluronate) appears together in the later half of the list, alongside malachite extract and a trace amount of sodium DNA at 0.1ppm. The texture comes from gellan gum rather than oils, so it reads light and gel-like. The list contains no fragrance ingredient or essential oil according to the class screening.
