est The Lotion EX S 140ml – Desert Hydration Brightening Facial Lotion (Quasi-Drug) [With alcohol]

est The Lotion EX S is an advanced Japanese facial lotion developed to hydrate skin even in extremely dry environments. Inspired by research conducted in desert-level dryness conditions, this quasi-drug lotion replenishes moisture deep within the stratum corneum, helping skin appear plump, firm, and clear.

Using a proprietary 3-Step Water Control System, the lotion restores hydration to shrunken stratum cells caused by dryness. The formula penetrates smoothly and evenly into uneven skin texture while maintaining a comfortable, non-sticky finish.

The lotion contains est’s developed Ectobiosis moisturizing complex — ectoin, trehalose, glycerin, and diglycol guanidine succinate — which helps retain moisture and support the skin’s barrier function. In addition, the active brightening ingredient L-ascorbic acid 2-glucoside (vitamin C derivative) helps reduce melanin production, supporting brighter and clearer skin.

Despite its rich hydration performance, the texture absorbs quickly and leaves the skin soft, smooth, and refreshed. A gentle aquatic floral scent enhances the daily skincare experience.
