FRENAVA Balancing Serum employs its foundation of 50% saké lees, an extract rich in vitamins and proteins, to give your skin a smoother, firmer texture. Applied after a lotion or toner, it locks in enough moisture for the assured feeling of all-day hydration.

What’s inside? Key ingredients include:

• Fermented Rice: Fukumitsuya's rice solution contains 20 amino acids --  more than twice the amount found in conventional rice ferments. When dissolved in mineral water, these acids work to diminish wrinkles, reduce inflammation, and maintain your skin's natural microbiome.

• Kuromoji: Two essences are derived from the Japanese kuromoji tree: oil and water. The oil refreshes the senses with its fragrant, citric aroma while steam-distilled kuromoji leaf water moisturizes and purifies the skin.

• Saké Lees: Also called saké kasu, this paste-like byproduct of saké production is full of vitamins (E & B), proteins, and ferulic acid. The oils extracted from its powdered form are known to prevent blemishes and naturally brighten your complexion.

• Saké Yeast: From the same compound used to make their artisan saké, Fukumitsuya's yeast extract is rich in vitamins, minerals, and amino acids that combat the effects of aging.
