Ecran Daytime Protection Moisturizer
Made in our own factory and laboratory in Pine Brook, NJ
Description+
For Sensitive, Dry or Dehydrated Skin
Your skin takes on pollution, dirt, dry office air and makeup sitting on your face for 10 hours, and you notice the result long before you notice the cause. Ecran is the daytime moisturizer built for that, hydrating and protecting in a single layer as the last step before SPF.
Niacinamide works to refine the look of pores and strengthen the feel of your barrier over time, and magnesium ascorbyl phosphate, a stable form of vitamin C, brightens and evens the look of tone through the day.
Fructose, glucose, sucrose and dextrin work alongside alanine, glutamic acid and aspartic acid, amino acids your skin already contains, holding water where a day takes it out, while grapeseed oil and vitamin E defend and cocoa seed extract filters blue light from your phone and screens.
Bamboo leaf and radish root ferments finish it. We ferment extracts wherever we can, because fermentation breaks them down finer and skin can use more of what's in them.
How to Use+
Apply a layer to the face and neck. Gently massage into the skin using upward motions until fully absorbed. Use in the morning to maintain and protect the skin throughout the day. Follow with a broad-spectrum sunscreen. Designed to be worn under makeup. For added protection during air travel, exposure to very cold weather, or other dehydrating environmental conditions, apply a second layer after the first has fully absorbed.

Our Philosophy
I go about [the formulas] in a very different way than a regular chemist. I always look for what conditions I’d like to correct. I look at what skin types and problems that I want to work with, and then I try to find the best possible ingredients that will work for the skin.
