About this Product
belif Hungarian Water Essence Moisture Binder combines rosemary, lavender, sage and lemon balm extracts with yarrow, dill and jasmine, one of the wider herbal blends in belif's range, alongside sodium hyaluronate for hydration. Poncirus trifoliata fruit extract and purslane extract add further conditioning, while lady's mantle leaf extract and nettle leaf extract support the skin barrier specifically. Napiers Original Formula botanicals, oat kernel, calendula, catnip, raspberry leaf and chickweed, run through the essence too, alongside cyclopentasiloxane and triethylhexanoin for a smooth, non-greasy finish. Applied after toner and patted gently until absorbed, then followed with a moisturiser, it suits anyone wanting belif's original, herb-forward water essence instead of a modern single-active formula.
Why You'll Love It
- wide herbal blend: draws on a longer list of apothecary botanicals than most single-extract essences.
- Historic herbal heritage: named for the traditional Hungarian Water recipe instead of a modern trend.
- Barrier-supporting extras: lady's mantle and nettle leaf extract go beyond simple hydration.
- Light, non-greasy texture: absorbs quickly enough to move straight into the next step.
