About this formulation
This formulation is completely alcohol-free — a non-negotiable for the UAE market where alcohol-based toners cause visible tightness, redness, and long-term barrier damage in the combined context of hard water, air-conditioning, and desert humidity. The pH is calibrated to 5.5–6.0, preserving the acid mantle restored by cleansing and creating the optimal environment for subsequent active penetration. The texture is essence-weight — more substantial than water, lighter than a serum — which positions it clearly in the premium and clinical skincare tier while remaining instantly accessible to any skin type.
Betaine, a natural osmolyte derived from sugar beet, anchors the hydration system — drawing water into cells and protecting them from osmotic stress caused by arid environments. Together with Sodium PCA (the skin’s own natural moisturising factor), aloe vera, and allantoin, these ingredients create a multi-layered moisture-delivery system that works synergistically with the hyaluronic acid and Pentavitin rather than duplicating them.
Every element is fully customisable — niacinamide concentration, hyaluronic acid molecular weight ratio, fragrance (or fragrance-free), pH, viscosity, and packaging format. Manufactured under ISO 22716 GMP in our Hamriyah Freezone facility, Sharjah. Compliant for export to the EU, GCC, Saudi Arabia (SFDA), and USA (USFDA).

Key benefits
- Pentavitin 72-hour hydration — saccharide isomerate binds to skin keratin for sustained moisture that persists through the full day and beyond
- Dual hyaluronic acid — high MW surface film + low MW deep penetration delivers layered, immediate and lasting hydration in a single step
- Niacinamide brightening — minimises pores, evens skin tone, and reduces dullness — a consumer-recognised active that lifts product value perception
- 100% alcohol-free — no tightness, no stripping, no compromised barrier; safe for daily use on all skin types including sensitive and reactive
- Absorption primer — conditions the skin's surface to maximise penetration of serums, ampoules, and moisturisers applied immediately after
What's Inside?
Hydration — Star Active
Pentavitin (Saccharide Isomerate)
The most sophisticated hydrator in this formulation. Pentavitin is a carbohydrate complex structurally identical to the saccharides naturally found in human skin. It binds directly to keratin proteins in the stratum corneum — not merely sitting on the surface — creating a long-lasting moisture reservoir that delivers clinically validated 72-hour hydration with a single application. Highly differentiating for premium retail, clinical, and spa brand narratives where ingredient science is a purchase driver.
Hydration — Dual Molecular Weight
Hyaluronic Acid (High + Low MW)
Sodium Hyaluronate — High & Low Molecular Weight High molecular weight hyaluronate forms an immediate moisture-retaining film on the skin surface, giving the skin a smooth, plumped appearance within minutes of application. Low molecular weight penetrates more deeply into the upper dermis for sustained internal hydration. In a toner — applied to bare, just-cleansed skin — this two-weight system delivers faster and more comprehensive moisture than a single-weight HA alone, and conditions the skin for the layered steps that follow.
Brightening & Pore-Refining
Niacinamide (Vitamin B3)
Niacinamide One of the most versatile and consumer-literate actives in modern skincare. At 2–5% in a toner, niacinamide visibly minimises pore appearance, regulates sebum production, evens skin tone by inhibiting melanin transfer, and reinforces the barrier by stimulating ceramide synthesis. Applied in a toner before serum, it primes the skin and amplifies the effect of niacinamide or other actives in subsequent steps. A commercially powerful ingredient that drives purchase intent across retail, clinical, and spa channels.
Hydration — Osmolyte
Betaine
Betaine (Sugar Beet-derived) A natural osmolyte sourced from sugar beet that regulates cellular water balance and protects skin cells from osmotic stress — particularly important in the UAE's extreme climate where alternating air-conditioning and outdoor heat create constant osmotic pressure on skin cells. Betaine also has inherent skin-conditioning and anti-irritant properties, softening the texture of the toner and improving tolerance on sensitive skin. Acts synergistically with hyaluronic acid and Pentavitin at a different biological level, creating a genuine multi-layered hydration system.
Hydration — Natural Moisturising Factor
Sodium PCA
Sodium PCA A component of the skin's own NMF, Sodium PCA binds water to skin cells with exceptional efficiency. In a toner context, it accelerates the skin's own moisture-retention capacity immediately after cleansing, when NMF levels are temporarily depleted by water exposure. Works at a fundamentally different mechanism to hyaluronic acid and Pentavitin — where HA and Pentavitin attract water from the environment, Sodium PCA anchors it within the cell. Exceptional efficacy in the UAE's low-humidity environments.
Soothing & Anti-Inflammatory
Aloe Vera Leaf Juice
Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Delivers immediate cooling and calming action on freshly cleansed skin — particularly important for guests returning from outdoor UAE heat or UV exposure. Contains naturally occurring polysaccharides that contribute an additional layer of surface hydration, and anti-inflammatory compounds (acemannan, anthraquinones) that reduce redness and soothe reactive skin. Also serves as an effective carrier for the formula's water-soluble actives, aiding their distribution across the skin surface upon application.
Soothing & Cell Renewal
Allantoin
Allantoin Promotes skin cell regeneration and softens the stratum corneum — improving the skin's receptivity to the active ingredients in the formula. Calms redness, irritation, and sensitivity that may follow cleansing, shaving, or facial treatments. A gentle, well-tolerated active that improves overall skin comfort and feel during and after application of the toner, contributing to the immediate sensory impression that drives positive brand perception and repeat purchase.
Barrier Hydration
Glycerin
Glycerin (Vegetable-derived) The cornerstone humectant of any effective water-phase formula. In this toner, glycerin works as the backbone of the hydration system — drawing atmospheric moisture into the skin and preventing the evaporative moisture loss that occurs rapidly on bare skin post-cleansing. Vegetable-derived, vegan-compatible, and clean beauty-friendly. Its rapid penetration in a thin, water-weight formula makes it especially effective here compared to its role in richer emulsions.
Hydration — Protein Complex
Hydrolysed Rice Protein
Hydrolyzed Rice Protein A film-forming protein hydrolysate that improves skin elasticity, moisture retention, and smoothness. Rice protein peptides bind to the skin surface, reducing water evaporation and leaving a subtly plumped, refined skin texture after the toner absorbs. Contributes to the luxurious, slightly substantive skin feel that differentiates a premium essence-toner from a basic aqueous solution — an important sensory cue for spa, hotel suite, and clinical retail positioning.
Anti-Aging — Optional Upgrade
Argireline Peptide
Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 A neuro-relaxing peptide that reduces the appearance of expression lines by inhibiting neuromuscular signal transmission at the skin level. When included in the toner, it reaches expression-prone areas (forehead, eye corners, mouth) at the earliest and most receptive step of the ritual — on fresh, bare, damp skin — maximising its opportunity for penetration. Elevates the formulation into the clinical and premium anti-aging tier. Available as an optional add-on active from LAB 03's raw material bank.
Brightening — Optional Upgrade
Alpha Arbutin
Alpha-Arbutin A highly stable, skin-safe tyrosinase inhibitor that reduces melanin synthesis — the mechanism behind dark spots, post-acne marks, and uneven tone. At 0.5–1% in a toner applied twice daily, alpha arbutin provides a consistent, gentle brightening action that complements the niacinamide in the base formula. Popular in GCC markets where hyperpigmentation is a primary skin concern driven by UV exposure. Available as an optional add-on active from LAB 03's raw material bank.
Preservation
Phenoxyethanol + Ethylhexylglycerin
Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin Industry-standard, broad-spectrum preservation system that supports paraben-free and clean beauty claims while maintaining full microbiological safety and a 24-month shelf life. Compatible with all actives in this formulation — including Pentavitin and niacinamide, which can be sensitive to incompatible preservatives. Allows the alcohol-free positioning to be maintained without any preservative-related irritation or instability concerns.
