Alive, Not Deactivated Most enzyme skincare uses enzymes that have been deactivated for stability — ours haven't been. E-lixir's enzymes are genuinely alive, which is precisely why they need to be kept cool: warmth makes them overactive, the same way any living culture responds to its environment. This is a live product, not a shelf-stable one, and that's the whole point.
Small Molecules, Deeper Reach Fermentation breaks ingredients down into smaller molecules — small enough to penetrate more deeply than unfermented actives typically can, working at a cellular level rather than sitting on the surface.
365 Days, Not Rushed Every batch matures for a full year. Fermentation doesn't just preserve these forty ingredients — fruits, flowers, herbs, roots, barks, kelp, green tea, gums, humectants, and rice peptides — it elevates them, developing properties that raw ingredients alone don't have.
Forty Ingredients, One Purpose A true broad-spectrum formula, built from food-grade fruits, flowers, herbs, roots, barks, kelp, green tea, gums, humectants, and rice peptides — each contributing to skin health in its own way. Full ingredient list on our website.
Store in a cool place, away from heat and direct sunlight, to keep the live culture at its best. This is skincare that's genuinely alive — treat it that way.
