7 days, rejuvenated skin foundation^¹
Redefine the strengthening of the skin’s basal layer and barrier
On April 9th, mtm labo’s Hong Kong stores and online store officially launched two upgraded special editions of decade-long celebrated skin health essences: the smoothing essence and epi-shield of TIME by mtm labo, the medical aesthetic brand. Formulated by our Japanese team of medical aesthetic-grade scientific research and integrated with highly effective natural active ingredients, the essences strengthen the skin barrier, soothe, hydrate, and repair it.

The skin health essences fundamentally address from within four major skin issues: barrier damage, dehydration, sensitive signs of redness, roughness, and dullness, and fragile, aging skin. It is recommended to use these essences pre-treatment to protect the skin barrier and post-treatment to enhance cell repair capabilities. Immediate relief from tightness and stress after just one day of use, skin becomes soft and refined after 3 days. After 7 days of continuous use, nearly 90%^¹ of users reported feeling a rejuvenated skin foundation.
