A few things about this product jumped out at me straight off the bat: it’s created in Japan, one of the cradles of beauty innovation. The formula — devised by celebrated dermatologist Dr. Andrew Markey — contains a laundry list of active ingredients, including peptides (proteins that strengthen the skin), collagen (which keeps skin plump), and niacinamide (reduces excess oil and protects the skin’s barrier). This cream is designed to complement Beauty Pie’s YouthBomb 360° Radiance Concentrate Serum, already a cult favorite among beauty insiders.
