Spa Care Loose Spicule (2.5 ml)

Instead of conventional sponge-derived spicules, the Japanese formula uses microcrystals made entirely from low-molecular-weight hydrolysed hyaluronic acid. Using a specialised manufacturing process, the hyaluronic acid is formed into two polyhedral shapes: pyramid-shaped and sharp spear-shaped microcrystals, with an average size of 250 μm. These compact crystals are designed to create microscopic unevenness on the skin’s surface, remain within the stratum corneum and then dissolve, helping deliver hydrolysed hyaluronic acid where the skin needs moisture. Because the microcrystals dissolve immediately upon contact with water, they are protected inside a water-free oil-gel base until application. The oil-gel base is more than a carrier. Squalane, jojoba, baobab and evening primrose oils help soften the skin and reduce moisture loss. Four types of ceramides support the skin’s lipid barrier, helping maintain hydration, comfort and suppleness. The practical click-pen packaging allows the required amount to be dispensed hygienically and applied precisely to the face, neck or individual areas requiring more intensive care. Who Is It For? It is particularly suitable when the complexion appears tired, rough or less plump and requires more intensive hydrating and conditioning care. Active Ingredients and Technologies Hydrolysed Hyaluronic Acid Microcrystals The microcrystals are made entirely from low-molecular-weight hydrolysed hyaluronic acid. Once dissolved, they help deliver moisture within the stratum corneum, supporting a smoother, fuller and more hydrated appearance. Two Polyhedral Microcrystal Shapes The hydrolysed hyaluronic acid is processed into pyramid-shaped and sharp spear-shaped particles with an average size of 250 μm. Their specialised shape helps the crystals remain on and within the skin’s outermost layer before dissolving. Water-Soluble Microspicule Technology The microcrystals dissolve upon contact with water. After Loose Spicule is applied to dry skin, the water-rich eX Insert Lotion helps dissolve them and completes the delivery of hydrolysed hyaluronic acid within the stratum corneum. Water-Free Oil-Gel Base The microcrystals are enclosed in a water-free plant-based oil gel to protect them from dissolving before application. This base also helps the product spread comfortably and remain on the skin. Four Emollient Oils Squalane, jojoba, baobab and evening primrose oils help soften the skin, improve suppleness and reduce moisture loss while supporting a comfortable finish. Four Types of Ceramides Ceramides NP, NG, AP and EOP help support the skin’s lipid barrier and maintain moisture, softness and elasticity. Vitamin E and Stearyl Glycyrrhetinate How to Use Step 1. Cleanse the face thoroughly and apply your usual toner or lotion. Step 2. Allow the toner to absorb completely. Before applying Loose Spicule, make sure no moisture remains on the surface of the skin. The microcrystals are water-soluble and should not come into contact with water prematurely. Step 3. Press the back of the pen to dispense an appropriate amount. When opening a new product, several presses may be required before the oil gel appears at the tip. Step 4. Apply the product to the desired areas of the face or neck. Spread it with gentle tapping movements without rubbing the skin aggressively. Step 5. Step 6. Apply Insert Lotion over the treated areas and press it gently into the skin. Step 7. Finish with a moisturising cream. The complete application sequence is: Cleanse → Toner or Lotion → Allow Skin to Dry → eX Loose Spicule → eX Insert Lotion → Moisturising Cream Do not replace eX Insert Lotion with an arbitrary toner or serum. Other water-based products may begin dissolving the microcrystals, but they have not been specifically developed or verified by the manufacturer as part of this delivery system.
