General, ingredient-based — not your personalized match.
See how this fits your skin
Take the skin test and I'll show you how suitable this product is for you.
Take the skin testRefresh and instantly calm your skin with the I’m From Vitamin Tree Water Gel Advanced. A lightweight, vegan-friendly gel moisturizer formulated with vitamin-rich Vitamin Tree Leaf Water and brightening Niacinamide. Perfect for oily, sensitive, or dull skin, this fast-absorbing formula delivers an instant cooling effect, deep hydration, and visible calming of irritated areas without any sticky residue. It also helps balance sebum production and improves uneven skin tone, leaving your complexion clearer, brighter, and more balanced. This advanced gel is absorbed well into the skin and supports healthy, refreshed skin with every use.
Vitamin Tree Water-Gel Advanced is a watery-light moisturizer from I'M FROM. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 35 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as very light — essentially a water-and-humectant base with little emollient weight. Silicones in the formula tend to give a smooth, blurred finish and help it grip under makeup. Hydration is handled by Glycerin, Butylene Glycol and Methylpropanediol, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: High. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Methylpropanediol and Panthenol.
Soothing: Moderate. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Panthenol, Allantoin, Chamomilla Recutita Flower Extract and Niacinamide.
On richness alone it suits Combination (oily) and Oily skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry and Combination (dry) skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on antioxidant protection, cell renewal and firmness signalling. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is fragrance-free, essential-oil-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, microplastic-free and sulfate-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging.
It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes after serums. Seal in your serums with it; in the morning, sunscreen still goes on top.
This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.
Drawn purely from the ingredient list
Scored on how rich or light the formula reads from its INCI order.
No ingredient in this formula carries a common-irritant flag, making it a reasonable option for reactive skin. A patch test is still recommended, as individual skin reactivity varies.
