The MECCA View

A daily reset for skin in one step. The Essence combines gentle exfoliation with hydration and cell-renewing support, powered by Professor Bader's TFC8® technology. PHAs, salicylic acid and hyaluronic acid sweep away dullness and refine texture, while guiding skin towards balance. Lightweight and deeply considered, it preps your skin to better receive everything that follows. Pure innovation, bottled.


Key Ingredients

TFC8® (Trigger Factor Complex 8):

a proprietary blend of natural amino acids, high-grade vitamins and peptides inspired by over 30 years of research. It guides key ingredients to the skin, creating an optimal environment for cellular renewal.

Phytic Acid:

Phytic acid is a known for being a gentle exfoliant, particularly beneficial for sensitive skin. Unlike some other AHAs, phytic acid also functions as an antioxidant. It helps remove dead skin cells and brighten your complexion. It’s great for smoothing skin texture, reducing dullness, and fading dark spots, making your skin look fresher and more even.

Wasabi Ferment & White Peony:

soothe the skin and prevent visible signs of ageing through defending the skin barrier from environmental stressors.
