Cold Plasma Plus+ The Essence

What it is

This first-step essence is designed to absorb quickly and leave skin feeling smoother, plumper, and more hydrated. Perricone MD positions it as a lightweight treatment for uneven texture, dull-looking skin, and a loss of radiance.

Key ingredients

• Niacinamide: Supports the skin barrier and helps visibly even tone.
• Saccharomyces/rice ferment filtrate: A fermented rice water extract that adds hydration and supports a brighter-looking finish.
• Copper tripeptide-1: A peptide noted for helping skin feel smoother and more resilient.
• Hyaluronic acid: Helps attract and hold water at the skin surface.

How to use

Use it as the first step after cleansing and before the rest of your routine. The product page presents it as a lightweight treatment designed to absorb quickly.

Who should be careful

The formula is fragrance-free, but it contains multiple acids and niacinamide. If you are sensitive to niacinamide or acid-based actives, patch-test before regular use.

What the brand claims

Perricone MD says the formula is fast-absorbing and intensely hydrating, and that it helps improve uneven texture, uneven tone, and skin clarity. The page also describes it as helping visibly plump and revitalize skin.
