What it is:
A lightweight, liquid moisturizer and serum in one that helps repair a compromised skin barrier. If your skin feels sensitive all the time, you may have a skin barrier that needs help. If your skin just hurts reading this, don't go anywhere.
What it does:
Water Elixir hydrates, protects and keeps the bad guys off your face. Water Elixir gives you a little suit of armor to wear so that you can layer products on top without fear.
Water Elixir is made with nano ceramides, hyaluronic acid and Superoxide Dismutase, so it keeps your skin plump, hydrated and protected. Water Elixir feels like you slipped into something a little naughty. Slow down there, tigress, you don't need a lot, as tempting as it may be.
What’s in it for you?
First of all, your skin will start to feel better with continued use. Your skin won’t feel like the hot Egyptian desert. If you're hot flashin', Water Elixir will cool your skin down instantly. After a while, you’ll start to notice your skin will be able to handle other products over time because your skin barrier will be better.
Finally, you get your face back.
Why you would use it:
You will use it to add an extra layer of hydration, especially when you are in hot, dry climates or when winter is kicking your ass and your skin looks like Jack Frost landed on your face. Great to use when you've been partying all week.
How You Use:
First of all, shake it, but don't break it.
Glass bottle is needed to keep the formula stable. Don't decant.

Apply 2-3 pumps of Water Elixir into clean hands.
Press palms together and gently press into skin, face and neck.

sexApeel™ INSTANT EXFOLIATION SPRAY
$ 42.00
The Basics
What it is:
An easy to use spray that exfoliates the top layer of your skin from head to toe, instantly, right in front of your eyes. For real, grab your friends and do a show and tell at your next party. You'll be the star of the show!
What it does:
Instantly exfoliates your face and body with a quick sweep of the hands. Sexapeel™ is type of gommage that is popular in Korea and that leaves your skin free of all the nasty crusty flakes. You'll be a smooth operator.
What’s in it for you?
You’re running out of time because you don't know how to adult and you're sick of seeing you’re skin look like an old handbag. Just spray, rub and rinse away all the guilt and dead skin, behind closed doors. We won't tell.
You’ll be left with skin that is soft, smooth and ready to be touched.
Usage
Why you would use it: Don't you deserve some self care?
You're smart enough to know that makeup never looks good on dead, flaky skin and you refuse to use a photo filter on your selfies (ok maybe a little).
Maybe you would use it before self tanner, or before summer sandal season.
Maybe you would use it because when you take off black pants, it looks like a DNA crime scene. Maybe you would use it before you shave so you can feel smooth and sexy for that great outfit. Maybe your husband's bald head just needs needs a little help. Maybe because you’re looking for love in all the right places.
How You Use: Spray 6 inches from skin, but keep it out of your eyes and mouth. That won't be a good time. Use a back and forth motion on the skin until the product and skin start to slough off. Then rinse.
Things You Need to Know:
Listen, if it gets caught in your body hair, don't freak out. Just let it dry then flick away with a dry towel...then think about getting a wax, you hairy beast.
Hide sexApeel™ from your husband. He will steal it. A good place to hide it would probably be where you keep the cleaning supplies.
When To Use: When you feel dirty and gross. It’s like going to confession.
How often to Use: No more than twice a week on the face and one time a week if you have sensitive skin. For the body, use as often as you wish, within reason. Don’t be a dumb ass and use it more than once a day.
If your skin starts to burn, call the fire department and then stop using. For real though, stop using it if it causes you problems.
For the love of everything holy, do not use this on a small child. This isn’t recommended for anyone under 12. Use common sense.

WATER BALM
$ 49.00
The Basics
What it is:
A five in one multi-purpose moisturizer that does it all. Water Balm saves you time and saves your face. Water Balm is formulated without chemical color or fragrance.
What it does:
Hydrates, moisturizes, and smoothes your skin before makeup and before bed. It plumps fine lines, smooths your skin, reduces the appearance of pores and makes your face look like you’re wearing a photo filter in real life. Your skin will look like a wet dolphin for hours.
Water Balm uses this really cool technology, “Water Bead” technology. Inside Water Balm are tiny beads that contain your serum, toner, moisturizer and primer all in one. Leave it to Japan to create the really cool stuff. Look at you being the first of your friends to find the really cool stuff.
What’s in it for you?
You can’t seem to get out the door fast enough and little Tommy’s breakfast toast is sticking to the bottom of your shoe. Water Balm helps your skin look so good, your friends will be jealous. Water Balm will keep your skin comfortable for hours so while you’re out kicking ass and taking names, you’ll look damn good doing it. Think of it as your super power moisturizer to fight off evil and save the world.
Usage
Why you would use it:
You don’t have time to mess around, you’re a busy gal on the go. You need shit that works and you don’t have time to do 450 steps just to look like a normal human. You’re tired for products that over promise and under deliver. Water Balm will give you the confidence of great skin. Water Balm is so addicting, if you ever find yourself without it, profanities will blaze from of your mouth.
How You’ll Use it:
AM:
Because Japanese women know a thing or two about skin care, place a nickel size amount in the palm of your fingers. Tap together and lightly tap all over the face, then rub in evenly. Tapping breaks open the Water Beads and all the goodness is on your face. Let sit for 5-10 minutes before applying makeup. (Now may be a good time to have some coffee or tea) Apply makeup as usual.
PM:
Clean your makeup off with Japanese Cleansing Oil. Rinse Well. Apply Water Elixir on the skin, and your favorite serum. Then apply Water Oil if needed. Apply Eye Cream. Apply Water Balm Skin Prep as your final step. When you awake, you will look and feel like you had a facial treatment while you sleep. Look at you, being so good to yourself.
Things You Need to Know:
- Water Balm is addicting. Fear not, we are going to set up a subscription very soon.
- Water Balm is not Vegan. Contains a small amount of silk.
- Water Balm also contains a very small amount of egg, so if you’re allergic, it’s best to avoid it.
- Water Balm is not gluten free because it is made in a factory that makes products that has gluten ingredients. So use your best judgement.
- Water Balm also contains soy. So if you have a problem with soy, don’t use it.
- Water Balm contains a small amount of citrus.
- Water Balm is also great for damaged skin barriers
- Water Balm is generally tolerated well for rosacea prone skin. As usual your mileage may vary.
After continued use, you will start to discover all the ways you could use Water Balm and feel like a real jetsetter. Especially when you find out that Water Balm was your secret hero on that trip to the Caribbean when you got a little pink. Oops!
When To Use:
It feels so damn good, you will want to use it all day every day.
How often to Use:
Use it day and night. Without apologies. You deserve it.
