Elixir Advanced Emulsion T II 130ml is the moisture-sealing emulsion in the Elixir Advanced two-step routine for dry and mature skin — delivering the same W Stem Complex AD as the Advanced Lotion in a lightweight emollient base that seals the toner's hydration into the stratum corneum and provides a cushioned, dewy finish throughout the day. Used after the Advanced Lotion T II as the second and final step in the system.
How it works: The emulsion step forms an oil-water seal over the hydration deposited by the lotion — physically slowing transepidermal water loss (TEWL) through the day. The W Stem Complex AD in the emulsion continues working in the outer skin layers as the emulsion is absorbed, compounding the moisture-capacity restoration effect started by the lotion.
Is the emulsion necessary if already using the Advanced Lotion? Yes — the lotion step hydrates the stratum corneum from within; the emulsion seals that hydration from external evaporation. Without the emulsion, the lotion's moisture is not retained through the day, particularly in air-conditioned or dry environments. The two-step system works as a unit and should not be used separately for best results.
Known in Japan as エリクシール アドバンスド エマルジョン T II 130mL.
