"Clear skin without the war on your face."

Most acne serums attack. This one rebalances. A lightweight, water-based serum that works with your skin's natural environment to keep pores clear, oil in check, and breakouts less frequent without drying, stripping, or irritating.

What's Inside

2% Salicylic Acid with Willow Bark to keep pores clear and exfoliate gradually. Zinc PCA and Zinc Gluconate to regulate excess oil without drying. Pionin® to support a cleaner, more balanced skin surface. Centella Asiatica and a Postbiotic Ferment to calm redness and support the microbiome. A Peptide Complex for recovery and smoother texture after breakouts. Cyclodextrin encapsulation for controlled, gradual release better tolerability, daily use.

What It Does

· Controls excess oil and shine · Clears congested pores · Reduces visible breakouts · Fades post-acne marks · Improves uneven texture over time

What to Expect

Clearer, calmer, more balanced skin with consistent use. Not overnight. Not dramatic. Just skin that gradually stops fighting itself.

Who It's For

Acne-prone, oily, and combination skin. Anyone dealing with congestion, breakouts, or skin that never quite feels balanced. New to exfoliating acids? Introduce gradually.

Ingredient library

What's really in every formula.

Every key ingredient across the MOTE range what it is, why it's there, and which products it connects.

Centella Asiatica Extract Cica / Gotu Kola
⌄

Asiaticoside, madecassoside and asiatic acid tell fibroblasts to produce more collagen while quietening the inflammatory signals that slow repair. One of the most clinically documented wound-healing botanicals in existence.

Why it's in our formula

We use it across 11 formulas because it threads through everything MOTE stands for: working with the skin's own biology rather than around it. In the cleansers it counters the disruption of cleansing itself. In the Reedle Shot it rides the micro-channels opened by the hydrolysed sponge.

Found in

Barrier Balance SerumCICA Balance CleanserGentle Face CleanserRadiance Restore SerumAcne Reset SerumThe Face Lift SerumNight CreamMilky Glaze TonerSunblock Body MistRoot Reset Hair Mist300 CICA Reedle Shot
Spilanthes Acmella Flower Extract Botox Plant / Acmella
⌄

Spilanthol modulates sodium channels in nerve endings that signal muscle fibres to contract. Less contraction over time means softer expression lines a mechanism distinct from any peptide.

Why it's in our formula

The Face Lift uses it as its botanical anchor alongside five peptides. Most lifting serums rely only on peptides. This adds a fundamentally different mechanism on top.

Found in

The Face Lift Advanced Sculpting Serum
Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Extract Rosemary Extract
⌄

A clinical study compared rosemary extract to 2% minoxidil over 6 months for androgenic alopecia. Both showed comparable improvement in hair count. The rosemary group reported significantly fewer scalp side effects.

Why it's in our formula

In Champi Complex, rosemary works on the hormonal environment of the follicle. The silica works on structural integrity of the shaft. The fermented oils condition the scalp. Complementary mechanisms not just beneficial names stacked together.

Found in

Champi Complex Hair Vial
Haematococcus Pluvialis Extract Astaxanthin
⌄

Microalgae-derived. Unlike beta-carotene which can turn pro-oxidant at high concentrations, astaxanthin stays antioxidant throughout. Its singlet oxygen quenching capacity substantially exceeds Vitamin C.

Why it's in our formula

Radiance Restore is built for high-UV environments. Astaxanthin doesn't brighten directly it prevents oxidative stress that triggers new pigmentation, protecting the results TXA and Niacinamide are creating.

Found in

Radiance Restore Advanced Face Serum
Niacinamide Vitamin B3
⌄

Interrupts melanosome transfer for brightening. Also builds ceramides to reduce water loss, and suppresses the low-level inflammation that keeps skin reactive. One molecule, multiple simultaneous actions.

Why it's in our formula

The concentration varies by purpose: functional brightening level in Radiance Restore, barrier-support dose in the Barrier Serum, toning element in the Toner. Same molecule, three different jobs.

Found in

CICA Balance CleanserBarrier Balance SerumRadiance Restore SerumMilky Glaze Toner
Tranexamic Acid TXA
⌄

Inhibits tyrosinase, the enzyme melanocytes need to produce melanin. More stable in formula than kojic acid. No bleaching ceiling unlike hydroquinone.

Why it's in our formula

In Radiance Restore, TXA anchors a triple-pathway system with Niacinamide and Hexylresorcinol. Each hits melanin production at a different point formulated specifically for deeper Indian skin tones.

Found in

Radiance Restore Advanced Face Serum
Salicylic Acid BHA (Beta Hydroxy Acid)
⌄

The only oil-soluble cosmetic exfoliant - it dissolves into sebum and works from inside the pore outward. Water-soluble AHAs cannot make that journey.

Why it's in our formula

In Acne Reset we encapsulate it in Beta-Cyclodextrin which releases it gradually over hours. This extends efficacy and reduces the irritation that makes BHA hard to tolerate daily.

Found in

Acne Reset Advanced Face Serum
Ectoin Extremophile Shield
⌄

Produced by bacteria in extreme environments. Forms a stable shell of water molecules around proteins and cell membranes, keeping them functional under extreme stress.

Why it's in our formula

Skin in Indian cities faces UV and pollution exposure that European skincare rarely accounts for. Ectoin has evidence for protection against both simultaneously holding the cellular environment stable so peptides can do their work.

Found in

The Face Lift Advanced Sculpting SerumThe Repair Formula Night CreamMilky Glaze Toner
Glabridin Licorice Root Isolate
⌄

Most formulas use whole licorice root extract diluted activity. Glabridin is the specific compound: a potent tyrosinase inhibitor that also suppresses UV-triggered pigmentation.

Why it's in our formula

In Radiance Restore, Glabridin adds a botanical angle alongside TXA. Using the isolate rather than the extract means a known, consistent activity level.

Found in

Radiance Restore Advanced Face Serum
Orthosilicic Acid Bioavailable Silicon
⌄

The only form of silicon the body can absorb. Integrates into the hair shaft structure and improves tensile strength from within.

Why it's in our formula

In Champi Complex it's part of why the formula feels different to a simple hair oil working on structural integrity of the strand, not just conditioning the surface.

Found in

Champi Complex Hair Vial
Hydrolyzed Sponge Marine Sponge Microneedles
⌄

Biosilica spicules from sea sponge create micro-channels in the stratum corneum. These channels close within hours but allow actives to penetrate significantly deeper than surface application reaches.

Why it's in our formula

The Reedle Shot is built around this delivery mechanism. Every active is designed to be driven through those micro-channels. This is why the ritual specifies pressing, not rubbing.

Found in

300 CICA Reedle Shot
Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-1 & 7 Matrikine Peptide Duo
⌄

Tetrapeptide-1 mimics the collagen breakdown fragments that signal fibroblasts to produce more collagen. Tetrapeptide-7 suppresses the chronic low-grade inflammation that silently accelerates dermal degradation.

Why it's in our formula

Paired in the Night Cream and Day Moisturiser to cover both sides of ageing: Tetrapeptide-1 triggers collagen production, Tetrapeptide-7 stops the environment from destroying what's being built.

Found in

The Repair Formula Night CreamThe Nourish Formula Day Moisturiser
Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 Argireline
⌄

Competes with SNAP-25 at the neuromuscular junction fewer acetylcholine vesicles release, muscles contract less intensely, expression lines soften with consistent use.

Why it's in our formula

In The Face Lift it's one of five peptides each targeting a different mechanism. In the Reedle Shot it reaches a depth through micro-channels that surface application alone doesn't permit.

Found in

The Face Lift Advanced Sculpting Serum300 CICA Reedle Shot
Nonapeptide-1 Melanostatin
⌄

An MC1 receptor antagonist - occupies the receptor that UV normally activates to trigger melanin production, without activating it. Blocks the melanin signal before it fires.

Why it's in our formula

In Radiance Restore it completes the brightening cascade: Nonapeptide-1 blocks the UV trigger, TXA inhibits tyrosinase, Niacinamide stops melanosome transfer. Three different points in one pathway.

Found in

Barrier Balance SerumRadiance Restore SerumThe Repair Formula Night Cream300 CICA Reedle Shot
Copper Tripeptide-1 GHK-Cu
⌄

Activates follicle stem cells, prolongs the anagen growth phase, and has documented activity against the hormonal pathway responsible for androgenic hair thinning.

Why it's in our formula

Root Reset is built around this peptide, paired with Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1 and a triple ferment complex. GHK-Cu works on the hair cycle. The biotin peptide works on structure. The ferments support the scalp environment.

Found in

Root Reset Hair Mist
Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1 Biotin Peptide
⌄

Bonds biotin to a tripeptide carrier that penetrates skin directly to the dermal papilla. Plain topical biotin cannot reach this depth. Delivered where keratin synthesis actually happens.

Why it's in our formula

Partners with Copper Tripeptide-1 in Root Reset — one acts on the hair cycle, the other on the structure of the hair being produced.

Found in

Root Reset Hair Mist
Bifida Ferment Lysate Postbiotic Ferment
⌄

Bifida bacteria produce molecules that regulate the skin's microbiome. When balanced, skin is calmer, more resilient, and heals faster. The lysate delivers these molecules directly without introducing live bacteria.

Why it's in our formula

The microbiome is disrupted by almost everything: cleansing, actives, pollution, stress. We include it across 9 formulas as a quiet constant - holding the biological environment stable so everything else can work.

Found in

Barrier Balance SerumRadiance Restore SerumThe Face Lift SerumNight CreamMilky Glaze TonerSunblock Body MistSilk Whip Body SouffleRoot Reset Hair Mist300 CICA Reedle Shot
Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate GFF / Sake Ferment
⌄

Sake brewery workers were observed to have remarkably smooth, even-toned hands despite rough work. Traced to the galactomyces ferment they handled daily. Rich in vitamins, amino acids and organic acids that refine texture and improve luminosity.

Why it's in our formula

In the Reedle Shot, GFF is delivered through micro-channels - access it wouldn't have through surface application. In Silk Whip it adds a skin-refining layer to offset the heaviness of a rich SPF base.

Found in

Silk Whip Body Souffle SPF 50300 CICA Reedle Shot
Squalane Olive Squalane
⌄

Human sebum is roughly 15% squalene. Squalane is the stable, saturated form that won't oxidise on skin a molecule the skin already recognises and accepts without reaction.

Why it's in our formula

Olive-derived in all MOTE formulas. In the Barrier Serum it contributes to the lipid layer preventing water loss. In the Champi Hair Vial it coats the shaft with something structurally similar to the scalp's own protective film.

Found in

Barrier Balance SerumThe Repair Formula Night CreamMilky Glaze TonerChampi Complex Hair Vial
Zinc Oxide Mineral UV Filter
⌄

Physically scatters and reflects UV radiation. Inherently photostable. Covers both UVB and UVA simultaneously the only UV filter providing true broad-spectrum protection on its own.

Why it's in our formula

Mineral Glaze+ uses micronised zinc oxide to minimise white cast on Indian skin tones. Paired with a fermented botanical oil complex to offset zinc's mattifying effect.

Found in

Mineral Glaze+ SPF 50 PA+++
Bemotrizinol Tinosorb S
⌄

Covers UVB and both UVA1 and UVA2. Inherently photostable doesn't degrade in sunlight and doesn't need a stabiliser partner. Not yet approved in the US; widely used in India and the EU.

Why it's in our formula

Silk Whip is a body SPF in a soufflé texture. Bemotrizinol is oil-soluble compatible with that rich base in a way water-dispersible filters aren't. Protection without compromising the texture.

Found in

Silk Whip Body Souffle SPF 50 PA+++
Panthenol Pro-Vitamin B5
⌄

Converts to pantothenic acid inside skin, participating in cell metabolism and tissue repair. Also a humectant that draws and holds water, with consistent evidence for accelerating barrier recovery.

Why it's in our formula

Present across almost every MOTE formula because cleansers strip, actives sensitise, and even good skincare creates moments of disruption. Panthenol runs quietly underneath, always restoring what other ingredients require as a foundation.
