Desertfree Cactide Aqua Gel First Serum 130ml

Jelly-textured hydration that starts with cactus extract

An all-in-one first serum for skin that feels tight right after cleansing. It combines the benefits of a toner and serum in one bottle, delivering moisture from the very first step of your skincare routine. The clear, bouncy jelly texture absorbs quickly without any sticky residue, building up deep hydration across 10 layers of skin. Formulated with dual functionality for wrinkle improvement and brightening, it addresses hydration while caring for skin tone and elasticity.

The water-storing power of a cactus that survives the desert

At the heart of the formula is Cactide, a blend of Moroccan cactus extract and collagen peptide. It's paired with a hyaluronic acid complex calibrated to different skin depths, Pentavitin to draw in moisture, and ceramides to reinforce the skin's protective barrier. The Centella HA Complex, made with Jeju centella and 8 types of hyaluronic acid, delivers hydration and soothing benefits at the same time.

For skin concerned with inner dryness and pores

Scored 0.00 in a skin irritation test, making it a gentle formula safe even for sensitive skin. Free from parabens, artificial colorants, and phenoxyethanol, it's a worry-free formula for the whole family.

• Skin with inner dryness that struggles to absorb skincare
• Skin that needs help refining pores and texture
• Anyone who wants the convenience of a toner and serum in one step

You can apply it in different ways depending on your preference: soak a cotton pad and sweep it across the skin, pat it in with your palms, or place soaked cotton pads on your face for 2 to 3 minutes as a quick mask.

First step after cleansing: toner and serum in one

This is an all-in-one first serum designed to be used as the very first step in your skincare routine. After cleansing, apply this product directly instead of toner—it replaces both your toner and serum steps. Follow with a brightening serum, moisturizer, or sunscreen as needed.

Morning and evening use

In the morning, use it to lay down a hydrating base. In the evening, let it replenish moisture in skin that's been stressed throughout the day. The gel texture absorbs quickly without any sticky residue, making it ideal even before morning makeup application.

Three ways to use

• Wipe method: Saturate a cotton pad with serum and gently sweep from the center of your face outward, following the skin's natural texture
• Pat method: Dispense into your palms and pat into skin until absorbed. On particularly dry days, reapply 1–2 times for extra hydration
• Mask method: Soak a cotton pad generously and place on dry or irritated areas for 2–3 minutes for an intensive moisture boost

Tailored routines by skin concern

If you're dealing with deep dehydration, try layering this product twice, then seal it in with a hydrating cream. For concerns around pores and texture, follow this serum with a lightweight treatment serum to build a more resilient routine. For sensitive or irritated skin, start with the mask method to calm and soothe before continuing your routine.
