Is this suitable for all skin types?

Yes! This stretchy emulsion is hydrating without being heavy or greasy, making it perfect for dry, oily, sensitive, and acne-prone skin. Extremely dry or dehydrated skin types may see best results when paired with Super Saturated for an extra boost of hydration, or Buffer Jelly to further lock in moisture.

Does it layer well under makeup and sunscreen?

Yes! The breathable, flexible texture melts into skin without pilling, making it a smooth, weightless base for SPF and makeup.

Can I use this if I have acne-prone skin?

Yes! Molecular Mesh was developed with non-comedogenic ingredients to support barrier repair without clogging pores. It hydrates in a way that respects skin’s lipid balance, making it a great option for those using harsh actives that can compromise the skin barrier.

Hot chemist tip: Comedogenicity isn’t an exact science, and every skin type reacts differently. We always recommend patch-testing if you have sensitivities or specific ingredient triggers.

RESILIENT: 93% agreed skin feels more resilient to dryness + irritation

BOUNCY: 92% agreed skin looks plump and bouncy

powerful repair, breathable feel

Dry skin doesn’t happen all at once - it’s a cascading process of water loss, barrier disruption, and irritation. Molecular Mesh intercepts dehydration before it spirals, reinforcing skin’s ability to hold onto moisture at every stage. Its bioadaptive structure flexes, cushions, and holds onto water like a second skin, keeping hydration locked in while staying flexible and breathable. Skin feels resilient and calm, never tight, greasy, or overwhelmed.

Founded by chemists. Formulated in-house.

Skincare designed with intention— using clinically proven ingredients and unexpected textures to deliver barrier-first formulas that feel as good as they perform.

    My single most favorite moisturizer I have ever tried and I am becoming a licensed esthetician and have loved skincare since I was young. I have put my entire family and friends onto this product and I need to have it in my kit at all times! It's lightweight but buttery and nourishing, and it lays beautifully under makeup AND on top of tretinoin cream. Cannot say enough good things about this product and you should try it!!!!

    Yes, I recommend this product
