It uses Smart-Cleansing Technology™, a clinically designed system that combines triple exfoliation (chemical, enzymatic, and physical) with deep hydration and barrier-supporting ingredients.

This soft yet effective formula blends mandelic acid and a five-fruit AHA complex with fermented sake extract and ultra-fine rice powder microspheres. Together, they help smooth texture, brighten dull skin, and refresh the surface—without damaging the skin barrier.

At the same time, Pentavitin™, bioavailable chia seed oil, and sugarcane-derived squalane deliver lasting hydration and support skin repair even after rinsing. The result is skin that feels softer, calmer, and visibly brighter.

The Meringue Melt is suitable for sensitive skin, although use frequency can be adjusted to match individual skin needs.

The Science Behind The Meringue Melt

Smart-Cleansing Technology™ is a layered system that delivers effective exfoliation and deep nourishment in one step, making it ideal for sensitive or stressed skin.

Triple Exfoliation Complex

Chemical exfoliation: Mandelic acid, an AHA with a larger molecular size, gently loosens dead skin cells while minimizing irritation.
Enzymatic exfoliation: Fermented sake extract contains natural enzymes and kojic acid that help dissolve dull buildup and support an even skin tone.
Physical exfoliation: Ultra-fine, rounded rice powder particles softly polish the skin without causing micro-damage or inflammation.

Reparative Hydration Matrix

Pentavitin™ binds to skin keratin, creating a moisture reserve that provides up to 72 hours of hydration—even after rinsing.
Allantoin, derived from comfrey, supports skin repair, soothes irritation, and encourages healthy cell turnover.
Sugarcane-derived squalane restores skin lipids and helps reduce moisture loss.
Supercritically extracted chia seed oil, rich in omega-3s and antioxidants, nourishes the skin and helps calm inflammation linked to premature aging.
Botanical polysaccharides form a light, breathable shield that locks in moisture, reduces inflammation, and supports skin renewal.

Size: 3.4 fl oz / 100 ml

Suitable for all skintypes

How to use

Apply to wet or dry skin and massage gently in circular motions for 30–60 seconds. Add water to emulsify, then rinse thoroughly. Use daily, morning or evening. Ideal as the second step in a double cleanse or on its own. Tip: Leave on for a couple of minutes for a mask-like, deeper exfoliation. Please note: do not apply the meringue melt directly to the eyes, as this product has a physical exfoliant.
