The science of skin

Evidence led formulas, named for what each one is built to do.

The formula

Built on calendula.

What it is built to do

Cleanse gently, and comfort skin while you do.

Who it is for

Every skin type, and dry skin in particular, morning and evening.

Why Opuliss chose it

Calendula is a skin-conditioning flower extract. Chamomile and organic damask rose water sit beside it, in a mild foam that lifts the day's oil and residue without a harsh feel.

The active

Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract leads the formula, a skin-conditioning botanical that helps comfort skin as you cleanse. Chamomilla Recutita (chamomile) flower extract, a second skin-conditioning botanical from the same daisy family, sits beside it.

The texture

A light foam straight from the pump, in a mild base of cocamidopropyl betaine and sucrose cocoate. Organic damask rose water and added fragrance give it a light scent. 97% natural origin, 7% organic origin, vegan eligible.

How to use it

Dispense a small amount onto wet palms and work into a light foam. Massage gently over a wet face and neck, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water, morning and evening. Patch test on the inner forearm for 24 hours before regular use. Calendula and chamomile come from the daisy family, so if plants such as ragweed, chamomile or arnica have bothered your skin before, you may be more likely to react to it. Avoid the eyes, and rinse with water if any gets in.

The evidence

Behind the formula

The published research behind the key active, and what that evidence does, and does not, establish.

What it tested

A cream with calendula extract and a plain base cream, both applied to the cheeks of 21 healthy volunteers for eight weeks, and measured each week with a cutometer, a device that reads how skin responds to gentle suction.

What it found

The calendula cream gave significant improvements in skin hydration and firmness over the eight weeks.

What it does not show

It tested a cream left on the skin, not a cleanser that is rinsed off, and not this foam.

THE SCIENCE ON YOUR SKIN

Results, grounded in research

Every hero active in our formulas is chosen for what the published science shows it does on skin. Here is the evidence, cited.

Brighter, more even-looking tone

Vitamin C (Ascorbyl Glucoside). In a 24-week double-blind clinical study, an ascorbyl-glucoside complex significantly increased skin brightness and reduced the look of age spots.

Takada et al., 2024 (half-face randomized study, n=27, 24 weeks).

Shop the Vitamin C Serum

Deep, measurable hydration

Hyaluronic Acid. In controlled clinical studies, topical hyaluronic acid measurably increased skin hydration.

Muhammad et al., 2024 (double-blind RCT). Bravo et al., 2022 (review).

Firmer, more elastic skin

Hexapeptide-11. Peer-reviewed research links Hexapeptide-11 to improved skin elasticity in in-vivo human testing.

Sklirou et al., 2015 (in-vivo human skin elasticity).

Shop the Hexapeptide Serum

Renewal, comparable to retinol

Bakuchiol. In an independent double-blind randomized trial (n=44, 12 weeks), bakuchiol significantly reduced wrinkle surface area and hyperpigmentation, comparable to retinol, with less scaling and stinging.

Dhaliwal et al., 2019 (independent double-blind RCT, UC Davis).
