FAQ
How often should I use Booster Essence?

Booster Essence is formulated for daily use. We recommend using it at night as the step right before BioSC Ampoule. As skin conditions, sensitivity and tolerance may vary between individuals, users may adjust the frequency of use based on their skin needs and preferences.

We also reccomend performing a patch test before use by applying a small amount behind the ear or on the inner arm to check for any signs of sensitivity or irritation. Also, start with a lower frequency of use (e.g. using it twice a week instead of daily) and adjust accordingly.

Why should I avoid applying Booster Essence around the eyes and lips?

The skin around the eyes and lips is thinner and more delicate than the rest of the face, making it more sensitive to intensive skin care ingredients such as spicules. Applying Booster Essence on these areas may cause discomfort, redness or irritation.

To ensure safe and effective use, apply Booster Essence only to less delicate areas such as the cheeks and forehead.

I feel a tingling or prickly sensation when applying Booster Essence. Is this normal?

Yes, Booster Essence contains naturally derived micro-sized, needle-shaped spicules that may cause a mild tingling or prickly sensation upon application.

This is a normal skin response and the sensation typically subsides within a few hours. The intensity of the sensation may vary depending on individual skin sensitivity and tolerance.

All users are encouraged to perform a patch test before use and begin with a lower frequency, such as once every three days or twice a week, before gradually increasing usage based on skin tolerance.

If persistent irritation or discomfort occurs, discontinue use and seek medical advice.

Will the spicules cause skin irritation?

The spicules in Booster Essence are coated with Centella Asiatica Extract to help soothe skin and minimise potential irritation during use. To further support skin comfort, the formula is also enriched with skin-conditioning ingredients such as Panthenol, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-8, and Beta-Glucan to enhance the gentleness of the product.

As skin sensitivity varies between individuals, all users are encouraged to perform a patch test before use and start with a lower frequency, such as once every three days or twice a week, before gradually increasing usage based on skin tolerance. Avoid applying Booster Essence on broken or compromised skin.

Since the spicules can penetrate the skin, are they safe?

Yes, the spicules in Booster Essence are safe for the skin when used as directed.

The spicules are naturally derived from freshwater sponges and are primarily made of silica, which is stable and biocompatible. After application, they naturally shed as part of the skin renewal process over the course of a few days. The shedding process may take up to 7 days depending on each individual's skin renewal cycle.

I find the tingling or prickly sensation to be unbearable. What should I do?

If you find the sensation unbearable, please discontinue use. For immediate relief, gently cleanse your skin with our Cleanser and Miraglo.

  • Rinse Miraglo before use.
  • Spread the cleanser foam over your entire face.
  • Gently glide Miraglo over your skin, focusing on the area(s) that require relief.
  • Rinse thoroughly.

This helps remove spicules that are on the skin surface. However, depending on the degree of penetration, not all spicules can be removed using this method. Avoid applying pressure to your face, and allow the remaining spicules to be naturally shed as your skin renews itself.

Can Booster Essence be paired with other products?

Yes, Booster Essence must be paired with the right products as it works by creating microchannels to enhance product absorption.

Booster Essence is specially formulated to complement BioSC Ampoule and boost its skin care benefits. It works by creating microchannels in the skin’s outermost layer to support deeper delivery of secretome.

For best results, apply BioSC Ampoule immediately after Booster Essence at night, followed by your moisturiser. During the day, always apply Sunscreen 5 or Sunscreen Matte 5M.

To help maintain skin comfort and minimise the risk of over-stimulation, avoid using products containing exfoliating acids (such as AHA, BHA, or fruit acids), high-strength vitamin C, retinoids, or other potentially irritating ingredients immediately before or after Booster Essence in the same routine.

For example, on nights when you use Booster Essence and BioSC Ampoule, do not use Skin Glow T3 or C Plus Serum 7S within the same routine, whether before or after applying Booster Essence. At other times when Booster Essence is not being used, you may choose to incorporate Skin Glow T3 and C Plus Serum 7S into your skin care routine according to your skin needs, tolerance and comfort level.

As individual skin sensitivity may vary, users are encouraged to monitor their skin's response and adjust usage accordingly. We also recommend performing a patch test before use. If irritation, discomfort or any adverse reaction occurs, discontinue use immediately.

Can I use Booster Essence with LIF?

We do not recommend using Booster Essence with LIF to minimise the risk of severe skin irritation.

Can I use Booster Essence before and after aesthetic procedures?

We recommend discontinuing the use of Booster Essence at least 7 days before undergoing any aesthetic procedure to minimise the risk of skin sensitivity or potential incompatibility with post-procedure treatments.

After an aesthetic procedure, avoid using Booster Essence until the skin has fully recovered. During the recovery period, you may use BioSC Ampoule directly on the skin without Booster Essence.

As recovery time may vary depending on the type of procedure and individual skin condition, it is best to resume Booster Essence only after the skin has fully recovered or as advised by your dermatologist or medical professional.
