CORE ACTIVES

Defense Blends Key Actives

VRF-01™ + TACTICAL MATTE

Tactical Matte Mens Face Cream
VRF-01™ - Visible Resilience Factors
Built around four foundations of skin longevity— barrier resilience, sustained hydration, antioxidant defense and optimal tone + clarity— it helps visibly improve wrinkles, loss of firmness, dullness and dryness.
TACTICAL MATTE PMSQ microspheres scatter light to soften the look of pores and fine lines. Moroccan clay absorbs excess surface oil to reduce shine. Together, they create a smooth, suede finish with a dry touch and a sharper-looking complexion.
