Rescue Formula: Support for Skin That Needs to Recover

Some days, your skin needs more support. It may feel tight after time outdoors, become unsettled by too much exfoliation, or need extra care following a professional treatment.

Rescue Formula is a recovery cream for stressed skin, developed for both face and body. It helps soothe visible redness and discomfort, strengthen the skin barrier and support the skin’s natural repair processes.

At Face Formula, we formulate for how skin functions. Rescue Formula brings this approach to the moments when your skin needs help restoring balance.

When skin needs extra care

Your skin barrier helps retain moisture and protect against external stressors. When it is weakened, skin can feel dry, tight or more sensitive than usual.

Sun exposure, changing weather, aesthetic treatments and overuse of active skincare can all challenge this balance. During these periods, a simpler routine focused on hydration, comfort and barrier support can help meet the skin’s changing needs.

Rescue Formula is developed for these moments, whether you need targeted care for a particular area or support across the face and body.

TECA: Targeted support for skin recovery

At the heart of Rescue Formula is TECA, short for Titrated Extract of Centella Asiatica.

You may already recognise Centella asiatica by the name “Cica”. TECA is a standardised complex of selected active compounds from this plant. The TECA used in Rescue Formula contains asiaticoside, asiatic acid and madecassic acid.

For your skin, this means targeted support for its natural repair processes. TECA helps soothe stressed skin and supports the processes involved in maintaining its structure, including natural collagen processes.

It is an ingredient chosen to help skin recover its comfort and resilience.

A formula that supports more than hydration

TECA works alongside ingredients selected to address the needs of stressed skin:

• Pink Nectar®, an extract of Calluna vulgaris, helps support the skin barrier and microbiome.

• Liquorice-derived glycyrrhetinic acid helps soothe irritation and reduce visible redness.

• Dragon’s Blood, a botanical resin extract, supports the skin’s natural repair processes.

• Polyglutamic acid helps retain moisture and reduce moisture loss.

• Shea butter, avocado oil and sweet almond oil provide lipids that help keep skin soft and comfortable.

Together, these ingredients support recovery, replenish moisture and help strengthen the skin’s protective barrier.

When to reach for Rescue Formula

Use Rescue Formula when your skin feels dry, stressed or unsettled, including during periods of increased sensitivity, after sun exposure or when your routine has left skin feeling over-treated.

It can also be used as part of care following professional treatments, such as peels or laser, according to your practitioner’s guidance.

Apply to the face, body or specific areas that need additional comfort and support.

How to use it in your routine

Apply to clean, dry skin morning and evening, or whenever extra care is needed.

Use Rescue Formula after serum, as the final moisturising step. If your skin needs a richer finish, apply it beneath Super Hydration Cream.

Following a professional treatment, follow your practitioner’s instructions on when and how to apply it.

Care that works with your skin

Skin’s needs change with seasons, routines and everyday exposure. Rescue Formula provides support through those changes, helping skin feel calmer, hydrated and more resilient.
