A B O U TBespoke • Made for a particular clientAs skin therapists, we know that one type offacial does not fit all.Skin may present itself one way and, twoweeks later, may look and feel completelydifferent.KrX's Custo:Med is a bespoke Korean facialline that lets us customize each step in ourfacial treatments. This means individualizedskincare, targeted treatments, and, therefore,better results and a more personalizedexperience.

Oxy Boost is the first step in the Custo:Med facial system. It is used tocarbonate the facial water to release CO2. This sparkling water techniqueoriginated from Japan, but has become very popular in Korea. Carbonated water acts as a vasodilator, meaning it triggers your bloodvessels to open up, bringing the blood supply to your skin's tissue. Mix 1tablet with 60 ml of water, and use with preferred cleanser for anoxygenating and detoxifying cleanse.O X Y B O O S T

BASE GELSHYALURONIC ACID Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a naturally occurringhumectant and is capable of binding over onethousand times its weight in water. HA created for skincare is the by-product ofbiofermentation. As we age, the production of HAdecreases and, as a result, we notice a visible loss involume and hydration. The HA base gel is safe for all skin types. Choosing a base gel is the first step. It is thefoundation with which we blend the powder actives+ concentrates.Choose a base gel according to skin concern. It canbe used to create masks, massage mediums, andnano infusion cocktails.TEA TREEThe Tea Tree Base Gel is made up of skin soothingingredients that have powerful anti-inflammatoryand antimicrobial effects. Tea Tree has broad-spectrum antimicrobial activityagainst bacterial, fungal, and viral infections. It isalso an anti-inflammatory (when used in theappropriate dosage).Aloe has soothing + hydrating properties. It alsoincreases collagen synthesis + cross linking (theability of collagen fibrils to form strong bonds withadjacent fibrils).Glycerin is the most popular humectant in skincare.It draws water from the atmosphere to hydrate andsoften the skin. Best for acne-prone skin and is even beneficial for rosacea.PROBIOTIC Bifida Yeast Lysate is used in the Probiotic Base Gelto help prevent skin damage and strengthen theskin's microbiome, encouraging it to visibly repairitself.Bifida Yeast Lysate is obtained through thefermentation of Bifida. The fermentation processreleases enzymes that break down ingredients thatnormally would be too large to be absorbed by skin. Probiotics in skincare are not alive, but through thefermentation process they release amino acids,vitamins, and natural antioxidants that help repairphoto damage, hydrate, and make skin less reactive.Glycerin and Aloe also work to soothe and hydratethe skin.Suitable for all skin types, especially those in need ofbarrier support.

POWDER ACTIVESKAOLIN Kaolin is a type of clay originally discovered inChina. It's used in cosmetics today because of itspurifying properties. It is also rich in minerals thathelp to further detoxify the skin. Although Kaolin is often associated with acne-proneand oily skin, it is actually appropriate for all skintypes, including sensitive skin.Kaolin will not dry the skin and with a pH of 4.5,which is close to the pH of human skin, we find it'sextremely gentle and soothing. Suitable for all skin types, recommended for acne-prone, rosacea, and sensitive skin. KrX's Powder Actives are to be mixed with any ofthe Base Gels.These actives work to target key skin concerns. Theymay be used alone or mixed together to createcustomized masks. NIACINAMIDE Niacinamide, also known as B3, is a water-solublevitamin that reduces the impact of environmentaldamage by improving and strengthening the skinbarrier function. Niacinamide also helps correct past damage,including improving the appearance of skin texture,increasing hydration, and helps to even out skintone due to sun damage. It's also a great ingredient for rosacea as it inhibitsthe production of some cytokines, the chemicalmessengers that trigger inflammation. Niacinamidehelps regulate the overactive immune responseassociated with rosacea.Suitable for all skin types, recommended for skin inneed of barrier support, rosacea, and photodamaged skin.. CALAMINECalamine is made of zinc + iron oxide. It has bothsoothing and protective properties. Zinc Oxide, a natural antiseptic, has the ability toaccelerate healing and is effective in treatinginflammatory skin conditions, including acne. Suitable for all skin types, recommended for thosewith barrier impairment or acne-prone skin. HYDROLYZED COLLAGENCollagen in cosmetics, synthetic or otherwise, is toolarge of a molecule to travel any deeper than thestratum corneum. So while it doesn't necessarilyimprove the structure of the skin, it does havewonderful moisturizing properties, improving thelook of wrinkles and laxity of the skin.Suitable for all skin types, recommended fordehydrated skin.

TRANEXAMIC ACID Tranexamic acid is a water-soluble ingredientderived from the amino acid lysine. Its primarybenefit for skin is improving hyperpigmentation. Ithas the ability to interrupt multiple pathwaysassociated with excess melanin production. Studieshave shown Tranexamic Acid to be less irritatingyet just as effective as hydroquinone.Tranexamic acid must be used with oil-solubleingredients to have it be most bioavailable to theskin. (Recommended to be used with Q10,Astaxanthin, and redness relief concentrate.)Suitable for all skin types, recommended for photodamaged and hyperpigmented skin.

CONCENTRATESConcentrates are as they sound; concentratedactives that are used for targeted concerns. Each concentrate delivers the highest and purestform of actives. They can be mixed in with maskformulations, added to massage mediums, or used tocreate a customized skincare cocktail for nano infusion. ASTAXANTHINReactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated whenskin is exposed to ultraviolet rays and visible light,which leads to lipid peroxidation of the stratumcorneum and subsequently impairs the naturalbarrier function. It also breaks down the collagenmatrix leading to a loss of elasticity.Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant, scavengingfor ROS, which ultimately helps strengthen the skinbarrier, reduces trans-epidermal water loss, andprotects from collagen degradation.Suitable for all skin types, recommended for thoseexperiencing photo damage, fine lines, anddehydrated skin.. Q10Q10 is a naturally produced bodily enzyme and oneof the most fundamental antioxidants. It helps toprotect the skin at a molecular level from freeradical damage. Adding Q10 to your skincare may allow your cells tobetter utilize other nutrients, leading to healthierskin overall.Suitable for all skin types, recommended for skin inneed of barrier repair, aging skin, and improvingphoto damage.GLUTATHIONE Glutathione is a protective antioxidant tri-peptide.Glutathione is a powerful skin brightener bybinding to the tyrosinase enzyme and inhibitingmelanin synthesis.

This powerful antioxidant reduces oxidative stressin cells, leaving skin healthier and glowing.Recommended for all skin types, especially thoseconcerned with pigmentation and acne scarring.COLLOIDAL* SILVERColloidal silver is known for its anti-inflammatoryand anti-bacterial properties. It promotes healthyskin flora with its soothing and purifying properties.Colloidal silver particles attach themselves to theproteins on the cellular wall of bacteria, where theypenetrate and disrupt the metabolic process, leadingto the bacteria's death. Suitable for all skin types, especially those withchronic redness, acne, and dermatitis.*Colloidal refers to the way the silver is formulated;particles are suspended in a liquid form that allowsthem to disperse to cover a large surface area.

REDNESS CONTROLRedness Control is formulated with a host of skinbarrier loving ingredients to help improvesymptoms of rosacea and dermatitis.Chinese raspberry extract is used widely in Asia andhas a long history of use as an herbal tonic.

Jojoba Seed Oil is a rich source of fatty acids andantioxidants and provides the skin with nutrients.Recommended for improving symptoms of rosacea.COPPERCopper peptides are known for their skin restoring benefits. Peptides are the building blocks of protein and arethe foundation of our skin. As we age, the level ofprotein in our skin reduces, leading to slowerhealing and loss of elasticity.
