LANEIGE Water Bank utilizes patented micro-fermented Blue Hyaluronic Acid at a 0.5 kilodalton molecular weight to penetrate 10 epidermal layers deep, delivering up to 100 hours of continuous barrier-repairing hydration for dry, dehydrated, or sensitive skin.
Standard high molecular weight hyaluronic acid sits on top of the skin. Laneige's Amorepacific R&I Center created Blue HA by fermenting deep-sea algae through a 10-step microfiltration protocol. The result is instant absorption and lasting resilience against harsh British weather.

LANEIGE Blue Hyaluronic Acid undergoes a proprietary 2,000-hour double-fermentation and 10-step microfiltration with deep-sea fucoidan algae, producing molecules 2,000 times smaller than standard high-molecular hyaluronic acid.
Standard hyaluronic acid has a molecular weight exceeding 1,000kDa, which prevents it from sinking beyond the surface stratum corneum. At just 0.5kDa, Blue HA effortlessly slips through cellular gaps into the deep epidermis, boosting barrier resilience by up to 300%.
Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic products excel when layered with complementary lipid toners and overnight recovery masks to provide 24-hour barrier protection.
Before applying your 100-hour cream, hydrate the stratum corneum using Cream Skin Cerapeptide toner. For severe winter dryness, seal the routine at bedtime with a cooling layer from the Water Sleeping Mask nocturnal treatment.
Always protect delicate lips with the antioxidant-rich LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask Berry, and pack TSA-approved cleanser and cream miniatures found in our Laneige gift sets collection.
