Melvita Source of Roses Extraordinary Water Hydra-Plumping Essence is the first care step of the routine, applied right after cleansing. Its ultra-fresh, gel-like texture melts into the skin instantly and leaves it soft and comfortable, with no greasy finish. It hydrates intensely, visibly plumps the skin and prepares it for the serum and cream that follow, with a delicate rose scent.

Key Benefits

  • Intense hydration: helps keep the skin hydrated and supple throughout the day.
  • Plumper-looking skin: the skin looks bouncier from the first application.
  • Prepares the skin: a pre-serum step that readies the skin for the rest of the routine.
  • Fresh texture: a gel-like water that melts in at once, without a greasy feel.
  • Light enough to wear alone: on days when you want a lighter routine.

Key Ingredients

A plant-derived micro hyaluronic acid hydrates in depth, while microdroplets of rosehip oil and organic rose floral water help hold water in the skin and refresh it. The formula is COSMOS Organic certified.

Follow with the Source of Roses Hydra-Plumping Moisturizing Cream. Discover the full Melvita range of organic skincare, made in France.

Frequently Asked Questions

In which order do I use Melvita Source of Roses Extraordinary Water Hydra-Plumping Essence?

Apply it first, on clean skin. In the morning, Melvita follows it with the Source of Roses Glow Serum, then the Hydra-Plumping Moisturizing Cream. In the evening, after the essence, apply the Source of Roses Hydra-Plumping Night Mask in a thin layer for the night, or a thick layer as a plumping mask.

What is the difference between Melvita Source of Roses Extraordinary Water Hydra-Plumping Essence and a floral water?

An essence is a care step, while a floral water mainly completes cleansing and refreshes the skin. Used between the floral water and the serum, the essence helps maintain hydration so the skin better absorbs the care that follows. Floral waters are less concentrated in active ingredients than an essence.

Can I use Melvita Source of Roses Extraordinary Water Hydra-Plumping Essence with the Source of Roses Glow Serum?

Yes, the two work well in the same routine, especially for dehydrated skin. The essence brings low molecular weight hyaluronic acid that hydrates in depth, while the serum adds a high molecular weight form that hydrates the surface and helps the skin stay hydrated. Apply the essence first, then the serum.

Which skin types suit Melvita Source of Roses Extraordinary Water Hydra-Plumping Essence?

Melvita describes it as ideal for dehydrated skin that needs a boost of hydration. Its light, gel-like water texture melts in without a greasy finish, so it fits easily into most routines, morning and evening, either before a serum and cream or on its own on lighter days.
