Le mécanisme
Lotus polysaccharides form a hydrating film that retains water in the stratum corneum. The flavonoids (kaempferol, quercetin) are free-radical scavengers. The seed lipids nourish the skin barrier. The overall effect is 'comfort + radiance'.
Tradition ancestrale
Lotus arrived in Korea with Buddhism (4th century). A symbol of purity and transcendence, it was omnipresent in Joseon art. Buddhist nuns used lotus petal compresses on the face during spiritual retreats — a practice that has remained alive.
