VT Cosmetics GLUCAMUNE ESSENCE

VT Cosmetics Glucamune Essence is a lightweight, gel-textured essence built around Tremella Fuciformis (snow mushroom) Extract and Beta-Glucan — a pairing VT markets under the name "Glucamune," though it is not a separately listed or trademarked INCI ingredient. Formulated without alcohol, fragrance, parabens, or silicones, it delivers serum-level hydration in a fast-absorbing, non-sticky finish that suits dry, dehydrated, and sensitive skin.

Key Benefits

• Delivers intensive, long-lasting hydration in a lightweight, non-greasy gel texture
• Helps calm redness and irritation on easily-stressed or sensitive skin
• Supports the skin barrier with panthenol and allantoin
• Leaves a dewy, plumped finish without stickiness
• Formulated without alcohol, fragrance, parabens, sulfates, or silicones

When to Use

Use morning and night, right after cleansing and toning and before serums, ampoules, or moisturizer. It layers well under heavier creams and is gentle enough for daily use, including on sensitive or reactive skin days.

How to Use

• Apply a small amount to the palms after toner
• Press and pat gently over the face and neck until absorbed
• Allow a minute to fully sink in before layering the next step
• Follow with a moisturizer to seal in hydration

Key Ingredients

• Glucamune – VT's marketing name for this essence's Tremella Fuciformis (snow mushroom) Extract + Beta-Glucan pairing, not a separately disclosed ingredient complex; VT markets this combination as retaining more moisture than hyaluronic acid alone
• Tremella Fuciformis Extract – a mushroom-derived humectant that helps skin hold onto water
• Sodium Hyaluronate – classic humectant that draws moisture into the skin's surface
• Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5) – soothes and supports the skin barrier
• Allantoin – calms irritation and supports skin comfort
• Squalane – lightweight emollient that helps reduce moisture loss

Precautions

Patch test before first use, especially if you have reactive or allergy-prone skin. VT markets Glucamune with comparative hydration claims against hyaluronic acid (for example, '125% more hydrating'); these are manufacturer-reported figures from VT's own official product pages and have not been independently lab-verified by Byutti. Discontinue use if irritation occurs, and consult a dermatologist for persistent skin concerns.
