"The moisturizer is both gentle and hydrating! I didn't realize how dry my skin really was until applying the moisturizer. The moisturizer is great and way softer than my CeraVe and Kiehl's products that I used before. Having used it for a few weeks now, my skin feels noticeably better and I have received several compliments on my skin! Didn't know how much I was missing out on until I started with Remsen!"

I took some time to give a review because I wanted to try this consistently for a few weeks. My skin is absolutely loving this Duo! It's integrated with my full routine beautifully and I've seen major improvements to my skin texture and hyperpigmentation!

Moisturizer goes on super light-weight and not sticky at all but you can still feel it penetrating and hydrating your skin! The cleanser is equally as impressive & is standing out for me with all the cleansers I’ve used in the past. Not only are the products high-quality, but the packaging looks so sleek & expensive on my bathroom wall.

Have been looking for something like Remsen for AGES. I've been a loyal Curology user for years but after my acne went away was looking for something more modern and sleek for my bathroom. Remsen is the only brand that convinced me to switch. Not only does it look nice, but it's super light and not oily at all. I feel like after using both the cleanser and moisturizer, my face isn't oily or gunky and there aren't any residuals left on my face. I can't wait for the travel sized Remsen bottles because I'm always sad to be left without it!

Genuinely Impressed. I was skeptical about "minimalist" routines, but I wanted to try simplifying and so far it has worked great.

I typically hate the dry feeling on my face that I get with some cleansers but this one has entirely avoided that plus the lines on my forehead seem to have softened after a few weeks. I also have acne prone skin and when I ran out of this moisturizer, I started using a different cleanser/moisturizer and broke out again, and going back on the duo cleared it up.

The Essential Duo has significantly improved the feel, texture, and overall appearance of my skin within DAYS!!! I have tried so many products to deal with my stubborn acne and nothing has worked except for Remsen. To say I am obsessed is an understatement. You need it!!!

Tito G.

I've pretty much struggled with acne my whole life (27 year old guy), and finding products that work with my finicky skin has been brutal. I've pretty much settled on all natural exfoliants and oil cleansers up to this point as my compromise.

I say compromise because oil cleansers for me also just don't clean enough of the junk off of my face and i find myself using SO MUCH every night, while any other face wash is way to harsh and leads to me breaking out.

With this Cleanser I actually do think I found a happy medium! I can get my face clean without acne in the morning or leaving my face feeling like it got strip mined lol. Highly recommend it!

"Remsen was a great fit for my sensitive skin! I don't like most skincare products but this has really made a difference"

Cindy W.

Verified Buyer

I have sensitive skin and have been swearing by fragrance free Cerave cleanser and moisturizer for years. I decided to try out Remsen a few weeks ago and have been absolutely loving it! The cleanser isn’t drying like a lot of others I’ve tried, and the moisturizer is lightweight while making my skin feel amazing and supple. Will 100% be recommending Remsen to my friends and family and keeping my fingers crossed for new products (like sunscreen)!

Pauline H.

Verified Buyer

I am loving the moisturizer!!! I like that it doesn’t irritate me and that’s rare (I only have one other moisturizer that doesn’t irritate me and I’ve tried a lot of the derm recommended ones). When I first started using it I felt like it was making my skin more glowy overall. My other moisturizer is laroche posay and it’s a bit more heavy and rich, I feel like this is a lighter feel and doesn’t pill (which laroche posay does). I am still using both though because my skin gets really dry.

Before
After

2 Months Before & After* - Forehead Wrinkles

Powered by Clinically-Proven Actives

Peptide Serum + Moisturizer Hybrid

At the core of our moisturizer is Matrixyl® synthe’6®, a next-generation peptide studied for its ability to reinforce the skin’s structural matrix—collagen, laminin, hyaluronic acid, and more. In testing, it visibly softened the look of wrinkles and helped restore smoother texture. Our formula incorporates this peptide at a clinically-studied effective level to bring that same support into your everyday routine.

Proven Ingredients, Not Passing Trends.

We invest in ingredients with real research behind them—peptides, ceramides, niacinamide, aloe, and green tea—not hype-driven additions that offer little benefit or worse, unnecessary irritation. Your skin deserves formulas that stand the test of time.

Clinically tested ingredients*

Before & after images show results from an ingredient-level clinical study on Matrixyl® synthe’6®, applied twice daily for 2 months and conducted by the licensed ingredient supplier. These images illustrate the peptide’s potential and do not represent a clinical test of the Essential Duo.

 

Our moisturizer includes more than the clinically tested amount of Matrixyl® synthe’6®, alongside additional barrier-supporting actives, to deliver comprehensive daily support.

About Us

Doing More with Less

In an industry driven by excess and rigid ideas of overconsumption, we set out to build something intentional, inclusive, and easy to live with. Remsen was created from a simple belief: better skin does not come from doing more. It comes from consistency, supported by great products that never ask you to compromise.

 

Our formulas are developed by top cosmetic scientists in Korea using clinically supported ingredients chosen for long-term skin health. They are designed for all genders, without unnecessary fragrance or complexity, and built to work with the skin rather than overwhelm it. With Remsen, you don’t have to choose between aesthetics, performance, and simplicity. While our formulas draw on the world-leading innovations that defined Korean skincare, our brand, design, and philosophy reflect subtle references to our Korean heritage and our home in New York.

 

By reducing skincare to a few essential, highly-effective steps, we give you back time and mental space. Time to move, to create, to rest, and to enjoy the parts of your day that matter most. The routine works quietly in the background, supporting your skin while you live your life.

 

Remsen is skincare that respects your skin, your time, and your individuality. We’re grateful to be part of your routine, to celebrate the life you live beyond it, and we can’t wait to see what you do with the time you get back.
