The Modern Duo

• Resurfaces and seals, in that order. The Catalyst smooths overnight; The Innovator locks the results in.
• Exfoliation without the stinging. Time-released acids work gradually, not all at once.
• Nothing is lost to evaporation. An occlusive oil layer means the hydration underneath stays where it's put.
• Two of the three most common complaints, handled. Rough texture and persistent dryness.
• Built for reactive skin. Both formulas dermatologist tested as safe for sensitive skin.
• The pairing customers found on their own — long before it was sold as a set.

• You already own one and keep hearing about the other.
• Texture and dryness are your two issues. Roughness, flakiness, crepiness that moisturizer alone hasn't touched.
• Evenings are when you have time. One considered routine at night rather than steps you'll skip at 7am.
• Acids have been too harsh before. Skin that stings, flushes, or peels with conventional exfoliants.
• You want results without the full three-step commitment.

Two formulas. The key ingredients behind each.

• Buffered Lactic & Glycolic Acids — The Catalyst
  A water-gel system releases AHAs into skin gradually rather than all at once, resurfacing without the stinging conventional acids cause.
• Ceramide Complex (NP, AP, EOP) — The Catalyst
  Three ceramides mirroring your own barrier structure. As estrogen declines that barrier thins; this helps restore what's depleted.
• Ultra-Low Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid — The Catalyst
  Small enough to absorb deeply rather than sit on the surface. Improves the look of elasticity and fine lines.
• Schisandra & Monk's Pepper Berry — The Catalyst
  COSMOS-approved adaptogens that soothe reactivity and support the appearance of skin density in women over 50.
• Alpine Rose Extract — The Innovator
  A purified extract of organic Swiss alpine rose leaves. Helps protect skin proteins against oxidative damage and calms the look of inflammation.
• Tamanu Oil — The Innovator
  Deeply hydrating without heaviness, and a notable support to barrier function.
• Camellia Oil — The Innovator
  A dry oil, absorbed easily and left without residue. Antioxidant-rich and refining on mature skin.
• Rosehip & Maracuja Oils — The Innovator
  Antioxidant-dense oils that strengthen the barrier against environmental stress.

Evening

1. Cleanse — The Reset, or your usual cleanser
2. The Catalyst — one pump to face and neck, let it absorb fully
3. Your moisturizer, if you use one
4. The Innovator — 2–4 drops warmed between palms, patted onto face and neck

Morning: The Innovator can be used again, 2–4 drops before SPF, if your skin runs dry. The Catalyst is evening only.

Starting out: if your skin is reactive, use The Catalyst two or three nights the first week, building to nightly as skin adjusts. The Innovator can be used daily from the start.

On sun: The Catalyst contains AHAs, which increase sun sensitivity. Broad-spectrum SPF daily is not optional while you're using it.

Anywhere else: work the last of The Innovator into hands, neck, or décolleté.
