With the help of patent-pending XDF™ (Transdermal Flavosomes) encapsulated technology, ingredients target inflammation, irritation, and flare-ups at the source.
- Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG): A green tea–derived flavonoid proven to reduce inflammation and oxidative stress associated with redness and breakouts.
- Quercetin: A potent antioxidant that stabilizes mast cell activity, helping to quickly reduce irritation and reactive flare-ups.
- Squalane: A biomimetic lipid that replenishes moisture without clogging pores or leaving residue.
- Cocamidopropyl Betaine: A mild surfactant that cleans effectively without stripping essential lipids and harming the skin barrier.
Full Ingredient List: Water (Aqua), Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Glycerin, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Caprylyl Glycol, Glyceryl Laurate, Glyceryl Undecylenate, Ethoxydiglycol, Xanthan Gum, Squalane, Polyglyceryl-3 Caprate, Phenoxyethanol, Epigallocatechin Gallate, Quercetin
Powered by patent-pending XDF™ (Transdermal Flavosomes), our pharmaceutical-grade delivery system designed to transport bioactive flavonoids into living skin tissue, rather than leaving them on the surface.
- 75% Transdermal delivery: Franz Cell studies confirm 75% of applied flavonoids reach viable skin tissue
- 400× Better than conventional skincare: Independent flux measurements vs. published literature baseline demonstrate 400x better penetration
In stressed human dermal fibroblasts, XDF™-delivered flavonoids reduced key inflammatory markers by 87–99%, directly interrupting the biological signals that drive redness, irritation, and flare activity.
In independent testing, XDF™-delivered flavonoids demonstrated:
- 87–88% reduction in IL-6
- 98–99% reduction in IL-8
- 91% reduction in TNF-α
- Complete normalization of CRP to baseline levels
Together, these markers represent the core drivers of visible inflammation, flare severity, delayed healing, and barrier disruption. The result is immediate interruption of active irritation and durable protection against future flare cycles.
In a clinical trial evaluating the EQ Clear Skin Collection:
- Results were comparable to traditional harsh OTC acne treatments
- Formulas were gentle enough for daily use
- No barrier damage or irritation was observed
Demonstrating therapeutic-level outcomes without relying on irritation-driven mechanisms.
Apply to damp skin morning and night. Massage gently for 30–60 seconds. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Follow with E.Q. Rescue Serum or moisturizer.
