What is a resurrection plant in skincare?
Quick answer
A resurrection plant can dry out almost completely, then revive when water returns. SeneGence DayTime Moisturizer – Dry carries one, Myrothamnus Flabellifolia (Resurrection) Leaf/Stem Extract, to hydrate, protect and revitalize stressed skin.

Which resurrection plant is in SeneGence skincare?
Myrothamnus Flabellifolia (Resurrection) Leaf/Stem Extract hydrates, protects, and revitalizes stressed skin in DayTime Moisturizer – Dry. The plant revives from near-total drought, and researchers have watched its living leaves fold as they dry and open again as they rehydrate. That resilience is the inspiration for the formula. Meet the resurrection plant.
What else makes the DayTime formula worth choosing?
For skin that resists dehydration, Myrothamnus Flabellifolia supports cellular stress-response pathways in DayTime Moisturizer – Dry. Encapsulated Glycolic and Lactic Acids release brightening care over time with reduced irritation. Its copper peptide, Bis(Tripeptide-1) Copper Acetate, is researched for anti-aging, firming and wrinkle care. Beauty Book 2026 (p. 12). In DayTime Moisturizer – Dry, Bis(Tripeptide-1) Copper Acetate supports firmer-looking skin. See the copper-peptide role. On the label, the gentle exfoliant is Lactic Acid/Glycolic Acid Copolymer, which gives a brighter-looking complexion; see its role.
After washing with 3 in 1 Cleanser, use DayTime Moisturizer – Dry as the lightweight morning moisture step, with firmer- and brighter-looking support, and the base for MakeSense® Original Foundation. DayTime Moisturizer – Dry.
Which moisturizer belongs at night?
Evening Moisturizer – Dry is the night counterpart when Dry is the right formula family. Use it after evening cleansing for its richer night care with additional SenePlex+®. Evening Moisturizer – Dry is highly concentrated with additional SenePlex+® for extra protection during sleep. Read the official ingredients and directions, see what the Evening formula contributes, or compare the two Dry moisturizers. Beyond the resurrection plant, SeneGence formulas carry five more true extremophiles, four ingredients that carry the Mount Yasur story and ingredients from the world’s hardest places; see how they differ and the products that carry them.
