PRODUCT DETAILS

Numero 10 Essence is a hydrating first step for the moments immediately after cleansing. It helps hold onto moisture right after cleansing and creates a hydrated base for the rest of your routine, giving serums or moisturizer a well-hydrated starting point.

The texture is a transparent gel. Rose of Jericho helps form a moisture-holding layer and supports deep hydration. Glycerin supports moisture delivery, while panthenol contributes lightweight hydration and soothing properties.

Upon application, it helps improve skin hydration and the look of radiance. This makes the essence especially relevant when post-wash dehydration or a dull look is top of mind. Its place in your routine is clear and simple: hydration first, then the skincare you already use.
