Axis-Y Artichoke Intensive Skin Barrier Ampoule 30ml

AXIS-Y Artichoke Intensive Skin Barrier Ampoule is a cult K-beauty ampoule from AXIS-Y — a brand known for its 6+1+1 formulation philosophy that combines six botanical extracts, one core active ingredient, and one patented technology in every product. Co-created with AXIS-Y’s global community of real skincare users who expressed the need for a gentle, effective daily barrier repair product, this ampoule is the brand’s bestselling hero. The upgraded formula is now alcohol-free, fragrance-free, and features doubled Hawkweed Extract for enhanced antioxidant and anti-inflammatory performance — making it even more suitable for sensitive, reactive, and breakout-prone skin types.

Cynara Scolymus (Artichoke) Leaf Extract at 10,000ppm is the star ingredient — a Mediterranean botanical rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals including cynarin, chlorogenic acid, and flavonoids. In clinical testing, Artichoke Extract helps skin retain moisture by building up cell wall density, visibly minimizing the appearance of pores, and providing powerful antioxidant protection against environmental stressors that degrade the skin barrier. The patented Hawkweed Extraction uses ultrasonic extraction technology to preserve the maximum concentration of bioactive compounds — minimizing ingredient degradation and maximizing anti-inflammatory and skin improvement effects while minimizing irritation risk.

Centella Asiatica Extract penetrates deep into the skin to promote barrier healing from within. Licorice Root Extract brightens dull skin and reduces post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Water provides immediate soothing hydration as the aqueous base. Sodium Hyaluronate and Polyglutamic Acid deliver multi-level hydration — HA attracts moisture while Polyglutamic Acid (with 500–1,000 times the moisture retention capacity of HA) forms a film to seal it in. Beta-Glucan delivers long-lasting antioxidant and barrier-supportive care. Laminaria Japonica (Kelp) Extract reinforces the skin’s mineral balance. Allantoin and Adenosine soothe, soften, and smooth. The lightweight, fast-absorbing texture leaves no residue or heaviness. Hypoallergenic, dermatologically tested, low-irritant certified — vegan, cruelty-free.
