[B3] Hydra Essence

SVR [B3] Hydra Essence 150ml is a hydrating and plumping gel-toner for sensitive, dehydrated skin that helps relieve tightness, reinforce the skin barrier and smooth early dehydration lines. It combines 2% niacinamide (vitamin B3) with two molecular weights of hyaluronic acid to maintain epidermal hydration, improve suppleness and prepare skin for subsequent skincare. Dermatologically tested, fragrance-free and non-comedogenic, its fresh, lightweight texture provides hydration without the heaviness of a cream. SVR specifically recommends it as the step between cleansing and serum or moisturiser, and highlights its suitability for hot, sweaty climates—making it especially practical for lightweight hydration in Lebanon.

SVR [B3] Hydra Essence is best suited to dehydration, tightness, sensitivity, reduced suppleness, dull or tired-looking skin and early dehydration lines.

The DistriQt recommends it as a hydration-focused first treatment step before serum or moisturiser, particularly when skin feels dehydrated despite producing oil.
