What it is
SILCUS Silk First Essence Serum is a Japanese foam-type first essence, 100ml, that doubles as a toner. Used first after cleansing, the foam is pressed over the face to deliver moisture and a hydrolyzed silk protein that supports the skin barrier, with soothing Centella and niacinamide. Layering it adds a dewy sheen before your cream.
Why it's different
It is a foam-type booster and toner in one, pressed on first to prep and hydrate the skin.
Hydrolyzed silk protein and Centella support and soothe the barrier for calmer, more resilient skin.
Niacinamide, panthenol, and a mild gluconolactone condition and smooth as it hydrates.
How to use
1. After cleansing morning and night, dispense three to five pumps of foam.
2. Dot the foam over the face.
3. Press it in gently with your palms until it absorbs.
4. Layer again for extra glow, then finish with cream.
