Active Treatment Essence

If you know, you know. Vintner's Daughter makes exactly three products that set the standard for the industry’s…
highest efficacy, quality and safety. Their philosophy centers on skin nutrition sourced from nutrient-rich whole plants, drawing on the founder’s background in fine winemaking and its quality-first ethos. (Founder April Gargiulo is literally a vintner's daughter as well as one herself.) The brand is fantastic at telling its own story, so we'll let them take the lead on this one: "Active Treatment Essence™ is a deeply hydrating formula that delivers radiance and renewal to all skin. At the heart of this essential hydration step is Vintner's Daughter®'s proprietary Phyto™ Radiance Infusion, a 21-day process which begins with nutrient-rich, whole plants and, over the course of three weeks, gently infuses their powerful nourishment into an aqueous base. Amplifying the infusion is their Phyto Ferment, a two-week fermentation process that produces beneficial probiotics and increases nutrient absorption. The complex formula for Active Treatment Essence™ deeply hydrates, brightens, illuminates, renews and revitalizes the complexion, restoring balance and evening tone and texture to noticeably improve the overall appearance of skin. With 70+ water-soluble nutrients and plant actives, including stabilized vitamin C, a full-suite of B vitamins, micro and mini hyaluronic acid, probiotics, micro-exfoliators, plant stem cells, microalgae and superfoods like astragalus and moringa, Active Treatment Essence™ offers multifaceted performance and supports the efficacy of subsequent products, including Active Botanical Serum™. Benefits include: Hydrates and plumps with micro and mini hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, coconut water, apple pectin and lactic acid for skin that is more supple and resilient. Brightens and minimizes the appearance of dark spots and discoloration using stabilized vitamin C, helichrysum, niacinamide and dandelion to even out and illuminate the complexion.Exfoliates and smooths with gentle, micro-exfoliating plant acids and enzymes to slough off dead skin cells daily, promoting cellular renewal and clear pores. Balances and clarifies the complexion by restoring vital hydration to support blemish-prone skin and delivering multi-tasking, balancing adaptogens. Fortifies the complexion with free-radical fighting antioxidants, as well as probiotics, alfalfa, marine microalgae, and a full-suite of B vitamins to benefit the skin barrier. Renews and revitalizes the skin with antioxidant vitamin C and plant stem cells to support natural collagen retention in the skin." Lastly, to use: "Apply to dry skin after cleansing. Dispense one-third of a dropper into the palm of your hand. Briefly join palms to saturate both hands, then quickly apply to skin using the Pat/Press Method™ by patting and pressing into the face for 5-10 seconds. To amplify results and seal in hydration, follow with Active Botanical Serum™ while the skin is still damp."
