Molecular Mesh
For a barrier that bounces back. Molecular Mesh is a deeply moisturizing facial cream that hydrates, soothes, and supports skin’s natural repair processes for lasting resilience. This semi-rich, breathable formula is powerful yet lightweight, making it ideal for daily use on all skin types. Powered by biostimulating actives like ectoin, phytosphingosine, and centella liposomes, it forms a flexible protective web against environmental stressors. The silky, stretchable texture melts into skin, leaving a naturally dewy, non-pilling finish that layers seamlessly under makeup and SPF. Skin feels plump, calm, and visibly refreshed!
Don’t miss a drop! Pair with our custom engineered Tube Squeezie to get the most out of your Molecular Mesh.
HOW TO USE
Smooth a small glob onto face and neck after cleansing and treatments. Follow with SPF in the morning.
WHEN TO USE
Perfect for both daytime and nighttime moisture.
MAKE IT A ROUTINE
Pair with Plasma Wash and Super Saturated for 360° barrier care from start to finish.
Ectoin
By forming a protective web of hydration, this amino acid shields against external stressors like pollution and extreme temperatures, keeping skin resilient for longer.
Phytosphingosine
This acne-friendly ceramide precursor helps activate your skin’s natural barrier repair processes while reducing redness and irritation.
10% Glycerin + Diglycerin
Hydrating humectant superblend! Diglycerin enhances glycerin’s hydrating superpowers, keeping skin plump and moisturized for longer.
Centella Liposomes
When calming centella extract is encapsulated in liposomes, its enhanced delivery speeds up irritation relief, barrier repair, and collagen production.
Guaiazulene
Derived from chamomile, this blue plant compound strengthens the skin by reducing oxidative stress and response to irritants.
In a study of 32 people, Molecular Mesh was clinically proven to deliver all-day hydration, repair the barrier, and reduce redness for resilient, bouncy skin.

Is this suitable for all skin types?
Yes! This stretchy emulsion is hydrating without being heavy or greasy, making it perfect for dry, oily, sensitive, and acne-prone skin. Extremely dry or dehydrated skin types may see best results when paired with Super Saturated for an extra boost of hydration, or Buffer Jelly to further lock in moisture.
Does it layer well under makeup and sunscreen?
Yes! The breathable, flexible texture melts into skin without pilling, making it a smooth, weightless base for SPF and makeup.
Can I use this if I have acne-prone skin?
Yes! Molecular Mesh was developed with non-comedogenic ingredients to support barrier repair without clogging pores. It hydrates in a way that respects skin’s lipid balance, making it a great option for those using harsh actives that can compromise the skin barrier.
Hot chemist tip: Comedogenicity isn’t an exact science, and every skin type reacts differently. We always recommend patch-testing if you have sensitivities or specific ingredient triggers.

powerful repair, breathable feel
Dry skin doesn’t happen all at once - it’s a cascading process of water loss, barrier disruption, and irritation. Molecular Mesh intercepts dehydration before it spirals, reinforcing skin’s ability to hold onto moisture at every stage. Its bioadaptive structure flexes, cushions, and holds onto water like a second skin, keeping hydration locked in while staying flexible and breathable. Skin feels resilient and calm, never tight, greasy, or overwhelmed.
Moisturizing, glowy, dewy, and doesn't break me out!
26 Days Ago
Obsessed. I have been looking for something more moisturizing that wouldn't break me out and I think I have finally found it. My skin still looks dewey when I wake up in the morning and I'm super excited to see the results from continued use. I layered this over Dieux's air angel last night and I woke up looking SO glowy. The duo is going to get me through this harsh winter!
Best Moisturizer Ever
32 Days Ago
I was hooked after my first tube and now I have this product on subscription because I love it so much. It goes on beautifully, never makes my skin freak out, sits nicely under makeup. If I want a thicker moisturizer, I can layer a few coats of this and feel really good. I wish it came in bigger tubes! I also kind of wish it came in different packaging because it doesn't stand up straight on my shelf and the metal is hard to squeeze out of at the end of the product (I do have the metal roller tool but don't find it super useful). But all in all, I loveee this product!
Another Slam Dunk from Experiment
59 Days Ago
I waited until I was out of my other moisturizers to purchase this, and my only regret is not getting it sooner. This is a beautiful moisturizer that I can use for daytime, even with combo skin. It works wonderfully for keeping my skin barrier in tact, as a fairly heavy user of chemical exfoliants. I use Super Saturated with it at night and my skin is bouncy, moisturized, and happy.
