Probiotic Skincare That Treats While It Cleanses

Most active skincare asks you to choose between results and comfort. Our probiotic skincare range is built to skip that trade-off, putting the actives into the steps you already do. Four products carry the routine: Tropical Melt for oil cleansing, Mermaid Micellar as a no-rinse remover, cleanser, and toner in one, Moon Jelly as a gel cleanser that doubles as a hydrating mask, and Island Ambrosia to moisturize. Running through all of them: bakuchiol as a plant-based retinol alternative, niacinamide up to 5 percent, probiotic ferments for the barrier, and kakadu plum, watermelon, hibiscus, and mango. Masks, samples, and value kits complete it.

Island Ambrosia Bakuchiol Moisturizer

The hero moisturizer, and the product most people arrive at the brand for. Bakuchiol supports collagen and smooths the look of fine lines with none of retinol's adjustment period, wild pansy extract boosts the skin's own hyaluronic acid, probiotics strengthen the barrier, and kakadu plum vitamin C works on tone and discoloration. Despite how rich it sounds, the texture is lightweight and absorbs fast, carried by watermelon seed oil, jojoba, hibiscus, pineapple, mango, and papaya, with no silicones or mineral oil. Apply a pearl-sized amount in upward motions over face and neck, morning and night. Safe around the eye area, wearable under makeup, and suitable during pregnancy. 2 oz. $52.

Tropical Melt Bakuchiol Cleansing Balm

A solid balm that turns to silky oil the second it meets warm hands, then emulsifies to a milky cleanser with water. It dissolves waterproof makeup and SPF without the scrubbing that leaves eyes red, while bakuchiol works on fine lines, kakadu plum delivers a high concentration of vitamin C for brightness, and probiotics support the barrier. Warm between dry hands, massage over face and neck in circular motions, add water, rinse. It also doubles as a 10 to 15 minute mask, an overnight treatment, or a spot moisturizer on damp skin. No mineral oil, synthetic fragrance, sulfates, parabens, or phthalates. 2 oz. $34.
