It does this by infusing a sophisticated complex of photo-therapeutics proven to support brightness, clarity and resilience; and then protecting and enhancing their effect with substances that facilitate seamless penetration and seal absorption in order to maximize deepest skin benefits. For use at night, under Infusion Seal Triple Rose Cream or other occlusive; effect is augmented by layering with Tai-C serum.
Aromatic Botanical Therapy Roll-on Spot Treatment
This is a roll-on treatment to target ‘spots’ of inflamed skin; especially effective if applied right as they are forming. This unique formulation contains what are known in TCM as super heat-clearing (meaning anti-infective/anti-inflammatory) botanicals to pre-empt or quickly heal troubled areas; along with calming, clarifying actives to sooth, heal and balance troubled skin. Green tea is known as a superior antioxidant as well as a great phyto-active for addressing acne-prone skin.
Chinese Herbal Exfoliating Grains
A pleasant, invigorating scrub to remove dull surface skin cells, made of precious traditional therapeutics powdered into very fine grains. It is recommended to mix these grains with Universal cleanser once or twice a week as a routine, to keep skin glowing and pre-empt the clogging of pores by removing dull surface skin cells. Not for use on skin that is actively inflamed or broken.
Cucumber Rose Balancing Infusion Cooling Face Mist And Toner
Ideally balanced and mild, this hydrating and refreshing spray from the Universal line is perfectly suited to all skin types. The cooling Yin of cucumber is complemented with the more Yang activity of qi regulation imparted by rose blossom. Rice and oats provide underlying supplementation and moisture to keep skin perfectly hydrated. For use any time throughout the day to moisten and refresh the face, neck and body.

This high-treatment, multi-action mask is presented in powder form, activated when mixed with water; a method of formulation which maximally preserves the multitude of nutrients until just ready to be used. Rich in vitamins A and E, the golden-orange pumpkin squash is valued in TCM for its excellent detoxification effects as well as its actions of regulating and tonifying. It is combined here with gentle exfoliation, skin calming and astringent therapeutics to create a balanced ‘all-in-one’ facial. Use weekly or bi-weekly; or just before a special event for the freshest, deepest glow.
Red Fruit And Ginger Ultimate Eye Serum
An exquisite light-weight but extremely antioxidant-rich formula for the most delicate, damageprone area on the face. This botanical complex is made up of plants which are among the most universally revered for their nourishing, protective properties; and understood in TCM to have an affinity for the eye area as well.
Goji berry is an ‘herb’ that is also a food, and is classified as a yin tonic with a special affinity for the eyes. Research shows its protective anti-oxidant benefits exist with topical application as well, and studies have demonstrated its extraordinary ability to stimulate natural collagen production.
Ultimate Balanced Cleanser For Face And Neck
A super-mild but very effective creamy cleanser, pH balanced to an optimal 5.5; rinses perfectly clean while the gentle creaminess leaves skin healthy, soft and supple. Contains no alcohol, so recommended even for sensitive skin.

This is the only moisturizer I need for my oily skin. I use it with a little bit of the Vitamin-C serum and it has totally balanced it out. So glad I found these products!

I used to think serums didn’t really make a difference until I used this for just ONE day!! INSTANT soft, plump, glowing skin! I wear it all the time now, as the directions suggest, even if I don’t use anything else, I put this on!

I have been needing something like this in my skin care routine and never knew it until now! This stuff made a difference in my skin overnight. I’m a fan!

My favorite serum!!!
Erica M. –
Everything that comes from this brand smells soooo good! I am one of those people who cannot stand to use something on my face that has any kind of ‘off’ scent, even if it works well. This serum both works amazingly to keep my skin hydrated and glowing – and smells amazing! Even without added fragrance, which is a big deal to me. Definite 10/10!

This is my go-to day and night. I am never without it. If you have ever seen Kirsten’s skin in person you know this must be an amazing serum, but once you’ve used it for yourself you understand just how amazing!

I used this serum for a week when I got a sample size. It made my skin FLAWLESS. In a week. I cannot believe how well this works. I am a customer for life!

this is like an essence, moreso than a serum. I really like how it makes my skin feel – never dry, always plump and soft. Definitly will buy again!

This is an incredible product. It keeps my skin balanced and ‘acting normal’ all the time. I have never in my life been able to wake up in the morning sure my skin would look great and not have come up with any unpleasant overnight ‘surprises’ until I started using this every day. Thanks for a great product!
