Lock in moisture without clogging pores*
Squalane has anti-inflammatory actions that reduce redness and swelling. Drench contains olive-derived squalane which is a natural emollient, so it locks moisture into your skin. Olive Squalane is a prized cosmetic ingredient that is cruelty-free, and plant-based unlike other types. Doing this provides long-lasting hydration and relieves stubborn dry patches if you happen to have those. Squalane is recommended for all skin types, even oily skin, because it's lightweight and non-greasy, so it does not clog pores. It deeply soothes even the driest skin and moisturizes without leaving an oily layer. It helps slow down transepidermal water loss making the complexion look more radiant and fresh. Squalane in Drench is NOT to be confused with squalene which comes comes from shark liver oil.
Neurosensory Soothing to Relieve Itch Sensations*
Derived from oats, SymCalmin® is a natural intelligent skin rescuer! You may not realize this but you're constantly scratching your face, or touching it. This ingredient helps reduce mild itchiness commonly associated with skin, especially sensitive skin.
There is an inflammatory chain reaction in the skin, but the soothing power of SymCalmin® will reduce that as it targets the sensory perception of itchiness at its source! Ideal for so many people who have irritation after shaving! It's excellent after sun exposure, or for those with dry, delicate skin.
Makes skin feel silky and smooth*
Aspen bark extract is a potent anti-inflammatory and has mild antimicrobial and antiseptic actions on the skin. This is due to naturally occuring salicicin. It also explains why this ingredient is anti-seborrhoeic! It can help with many tough-to-treat skin conditions including eczema, acne and rosacea. White Aspen Bark Extract acts as a natural hypoallergenic preservative too.
The extract comes from the bark of the Aspen tree, and due to its chemical make up, it is also going to make your skin instantly feel silky and smooth. I chose this because I did not want any silicone is this formula. Silicone clogs the pores.
Boosts collagen and elastin production for firmness
Drench Hydrogel Face Cream contains a special topical skin-loving form of vitamin C called "BV-OSC" that is oil soluble, instead of the water soluble. The advantage over water soluble types of vitamin C is that those do not fully penetrate the skin barrier. BV-OSC does! So it lasts longer and allows for longer shelf-stability. Best of all, it is not irritating to the skin like regular types of C found in cheaper skin care products.
Vitamin C is critical to stimulate collagen and elastin production which in turn, improves your skins plumpness and firmness. BV-OSC promotes up to 50% more collagen production than plain water-soluble C!
For long-lasting hydration and promotes wound healing*
Neem has a long and lovely history of therapeutic and medicinal use because it gently heals the skin and fights signs of aging due to its strong antioxidant benefits. Further, it is an emollient and antiseptic.
Neem contains fatty acids, antioxidants, and antimicrobial compounds, and these can benefit the skin in a range of ways. We know that neem can be traditionally used to help with eczema, ringworm, acne, warts and even psoriasis.
Improves elasticity and increases cell turnover
This specific probiotic is great for skin because it is adaptogenic. It works with your own skin's cells and their life cycle. It is protective and healing for the microbiome of the epidermis. It has been studied for possible anti-aging effects and how it might minimize wrinkles, improve tone and elasticity and increase cell turnover.
This probiotic is useful to reduce redness and irritation. It has gone through a fermentation process to ensure the probiotic benefits are active and useful.
I love Drench because it feels wonderful on my face. I have not seen a difference in my wrinkles though! I really really like it! I would like to have a hydrating cream. I have older skin. Thank you for a wonderful product!
I'm OBSESSED with Drench. I've used everything...Obagi, ZO, Alastin, Skinceuticals, Skinmedica, Amore Pacific (and probably every other Korean line you can name), other MD lines, and probably everything from Sephora and beyond...this Drench cream is the best skincare product I have ever used. I have extremely sensitive skin and now it looks like glass after nearly finishing one travel size portion. Adult acne = gone! Perioral dermatitis (something I've struggled with for years) = gone! I can't wait to see my skin after using the whole collection. I feel so lucky to have come across this brand!!! Also, I simply must acknowledge Sara Blanton for the most incredible customer service! Suzy, you have a gem of a representative on your side! Sara went above and beyond to assist me and I am extremely grateful. I hope to see a body line come out at some point. Thank you for your incredible supplements and products.

I am always impressed with the instant feeling of smoothness plus its ability to retain moisture on my face - even on those cold days and nights. Glad Suzy recommended it! Ty!!
