What it is
An overnight antioxidant treatment built on a marine botanical most people misunderstand.
Caulerpa Lentillifera is the ingredient the range is named after. It is a green seaweed, sometimes called sea grapes or green caviar for the clusters of small spheres it grows in, and it has nothing to do with fish roe - worth saying plainly, because the name misleads people in both directions. It is harvested in Southeast Asia, where it is also eaten, and in skincare it is valued as a mineral-rich, hydrating marine botanical.
Argan Oil is the second half of the name, valued for its vitamin E content and its long use in Moroccan skincare for dry, dull skin. Alongside them, Sodium Hyaluronate handles the hydration that matters most overnight - skin loses more water while you sleep than at any other point in the day - with Allantoin and Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder soothing, and Mica giving an immediate soft-focus finish.
Key ingredients
Caulerpa Lentillifera (Green Caviar) Extract
A mineral-rich green seaweed, named for the clusters of small spheres it grows in. It has nothing to do with fish roe.
Argan Oil
An oil high in vitamin E, long used in Moroccan skincare for dry, dull skin.
Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyaluronic Acid)
A form of hyaluronic acid that attracts and holds moisture, plumping fine lines overnight.
Allantoin & Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder
Two soothing ingredients that keep the formula comfortable on reactive skin.
Mica
A light-diffusing mineral that gives an immediate soft-focus smoothness.
Who it's for
This night cream is for anyone whose skin looks dull or tired and who wants an overnight treatment without retinoids or acids.
It suits normal, combination and dry skin, including sensitive. Because there are no strong actives, it can be used at full frequency from day one and layers comfortably over a Retinol used earlier in the routine. Contains declared fragrance allergens and mineral colourants; patch test if you are highly reactive.
What to expect
Skin looks immediately smoother thanks to the soft-focus finish, and feels comfortable rather than tight. The clearest sign it is working is the morning after: skin that would normally feel tight feels supple instead. Antioxidant benefits are cumulative and by nature invisible.
How to use
Apply a pea-sized amount to clean, slightly damp skin every evening.
Massage over face and neck using upward motions until absorbed, as the final step of your routine. If you use a serum, apply that first. On nights when you use Retinol or an acid, this cream works well applied afterwards to keep the barrier comfortable.

Frequently asked questions
Is green caviar actually caviar?
No. It is Caulerpa Lentillifera, a green seaweed sometimes called sea grapes, named for the clusters of small spheres it grows in. It has nothing to do with fish roe.
Is it vegan?
Yes. Green caviar is a seaweed, and all the other ingredients are plant-derived, mineral or synthetic.
Is there an adjustment period?
No. There are no retinoids or acids, so it can be used at full frequency from day one.
Can I use it with Retinol?
Yes. Apply the Retinol first and this cream over the top.
Should I apply it to damp skin?
Yes, slightly damp. The hyaluronic acid has more water to draw on.
Why does the cream shimmer slightly?
Mica is a light-diffusing mineral that gives an immediate soft-focus finish. It does not leave visible glitter.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, though it contains declared fragrance allergens. Patch test if you are highly reactive.
Can I use it in the morning?
It is formulated for overnight use. If you do use it in the day, always finish with SPF.
Can I use it around my eyes?
You can apply it carefully to the outer eye area, avoiding the lash line.
