A minimalist yet technologically advanced essence designed to soothe sensitive skin through microbiome-derived vesicle innovation and targeted hydration.

Housed in an airless packaging system, iMME’iTCH Instant Soothing Essence benefits from enhanced protection against contamination while maintaining the stability of a lightly preserved aqueous formula, an approach particularly well suited to reactive skin.

The product presents as a clear, lightweight fluid with a transparent and uniform appearance, reflecting both its simplicity and its rapid absorption profile.

The scent is entirely neutral, consistent with a fragrance-free composition developed to minimise irritation risks and maximise tolerance.

On application, the texture is light and fluid, spreading easily across the skin and absorbing rapidly without leaving residue. The result is an immediate sensation of hydration combined with a high level of comfort, well adapted to daily use.

Built around a highly differentiated biotech approach, the formula incorporates extracellular vesicles derived from the microbiome (NEXOSOME™), a relatively uncommon technology on the current market. With only six ingredients, the composition limits unnecessary components while maintaining functional performance for sensitive skin, with a focused action on soothing, hydration and barrier reinforcement.

Key ingredients include:

• Extracellular vesicles (1%), derived from the microbiome, targeting repair, inflammation modulation and barrier support
• Hyaluronic acid (1%), including multiple molecular weights, contributing to both immediate and sustained hydration

These components act through complementary mechanisms, supporting the modulation of inflammatory pathways, reduction of pruritus, strengthening of the skin barrier and maintenance of cellular homeostasis, with supporting data primarily derived from in vitro studies.

The functional role of these ingredients is supported by scientific evidence, including clinical data for hyaluronic acid and mechanistic studies for extracellular vesicles, ensuring coherence between the formulation and the claimed benefits. The absence of fragrance and identified allergens further reinforces its suitability for fragile and sensitised skin.

Its focused composition, advanced biological positioning and clear relevance for sensitive skin support its nomination for the 2026 Jury Prize.
