MATTIFYING DEFENSE
By now most of us have heard either whispers or volumes about the rejuvenating properties of New Zealand Manuka honey. Restore Essence Spray exponentially increases the efficacy of “nature’s gold” in this first-to-the-world formulation featuring artisanally fermented Manuka honey. Our Master Herbalist of 40 years further uplifts this formula with clinically studied Zymomonas mobilis + Swiss black bee honey ferment, a rare find that has never been seen in skincare before. This strategic and complementary pairing lavishes the skin with restorative methylglyoxal (MGO), balancing prebiotics, and rejuvenating postbiotics that nourish and repopulate the skin’s microbiome, delivering an effective cosmetic form of these highly sought-after honeys.
PROBIOTIC 6-PLEX + MANUKA HONEY FERMENT
USA + New Zealand
New Zealand Manuka honey is revered for its microbiome-friendly properties, lavishing the skin with blemish-fighting methylglyoxal (MGO) for a clearer, more even toned appearance. The mark of genuine, cosmetic-grade Manuka honey lies in the MGO grading system—the higher the MGO rating, the more you’ll enjoy the skin-soothing benefits. Our 829 MGO Manuka honey has been uplifted even further with our Probiotic 6-Plex™ to yield a ferment that nourishes the skin and its microbiome for a smoother, more even-toned complexion.
RADISH ROOT
USA
Synthetic preservatives are out of the question for our formulations, which is why we turned to fermented radish root as a natural alternative to preserve our essence sprays (which contain water) while doubling as an active, beneficial ingredient. Fermented with the powerful probiotic Leuconostoc kimchi, this potent liquid acidifies its environment while producing microbiome-balancing peptides. In addition to its preservative properties, fermented radish root improves skin moisturization for a hydrated complexion.
VANILLA PLANIFOLIA
Uganda
The aromatherapy of vanilla planifolia radiates and revitalizes the mind with mists of happiness and relaxation. Our unique choice of this potent orchid hails from Uganda, where it supports the local community, pays fair wages, and delivers a high concentration of blemish-fighting vanillin. Just as the vanilla vines twist around a tree, let this soothing spice envelop your spirit while antioxidants replenish skin texture and tone.
WATER
USA
Water acts as the critical foundation of our liquid ferments and resulting essence sprays. It doubles as a platform for probiotic + plant nutrient transformation and works to stabilize the potent nature of our essence sprays for optimal compatibility with the skin and its microbiome with daily use in mind.
ZYMOMONAS MOBILIS + SWISS BLACK BEE HONEY FERMENT
Switzerland
Replenish and protect your nature-given barrier from pollution with honey sourced from rare Swiss black bees. The probiotic in our bioactive-rich fermentation, Zymomonas mobilis, is the same probiotic strain that was used by the ancient Aztecs to produce the revered Drink of the Gods. This nutrient-rich ferment sets an ideal balance for healthy microbial growth while reducing sebum production for matte, hydrated skin that feels fortified and resilient.

Reviews
United StatesThanks for the quick replacement and the free gift! I have been using the spray and the Shield oil daily and my skin feels great. Good customer service is so hard to find these days. Thanks again.
United StatesThis is perhaps the best essence I’ve used so far. I really appreciate the fact that it hardly has any fragrance or skin sensitizing essential oils. I have combination acne prone skin and slow healing scars but since using this essence spray, I’ve seen a major difference both in the tone and softness of my skin. And I can definitely tell that my scars are healing much faster. A great product!
United StatesThis is so refreshing! Love to use this in the morning.
United StatesReturning home after a long flight a precious box awaited my arrival. I opened my package and to my delight my products had arrived. I washed my face preparing for bed and just couldn’t wait to spritz! I have used my Restore Essence everyday and my skin feels nourished and at one with nature. I love your products, your mission, your meditations, your commitment to our earth, and the heart felt love that I can tell goes into every product. Thank you!
United StatesThis spray is my new go-to facial product...it helps moisturizers and serums absorb and is refreshing anytime your skin needs a boost. It also gives a nice dewy finish to makeup. Love!!
