Functions
Astringent
Tightens and contracts skin tissue, temporarily shrinking pores and reducing oiliness. That "clean, tight" feeling after toner.
Miscellaneous
Skin Protecting
Helps rebuild and strengthen your skin barrier — the invisible shield that keeps moisture in and irritants out. Essential after over-exfoliating or harsh weather.
Nourishes & Protects
Traditional Use
Derived from Zanthoxylum piperitum (Japanese pepper), this ingredient carries the same traditional use as the extract—used in East Asian beauty practices for stimulating circulation and providing a tingling sensation that was believed to invigorate tired skin.
