Ampoule FAQ

What is an ampoule and how do I use it? 

Ampoules provide a concentrated delivery of active ingredients in a glass vial that can be applied on the skin to achieve a specific skin result. Our ampoules are for topical use only (think of it like a very specialized serum you apply under your moisturizer after cleansing your skin). Each of our boxes comes with 5 ampoules. You can use them everyday (morning & night) for best results, or you can add them once a week as an extra treat in your skincare routine. Our ampoules are for external/ topical use only. Do not swallow, digest or inject. 

How do you open an ampoule? 

Shake well before opening. Snap the top of the ampoule off at the break ring, while protecting your hand with a cotton pad. Apply approximately half the ampoule on your skin generously before applying your moisturizer. For best effects, use half the ampoule in the morning and half at night.

How should I care for my skin after applying an ampoule? 

Depending on how your skin feels, you can apply a moisturizer once the ampoule has been absorbed into the skin. Do not apply cream after using an oil-based ampoule.

How should I store my ampoule? 

You ampoule can be stored standing up in its box (see our Instagram highlights for a picture). Please use within 2 days of opening.
