If there’s one step in your routine that shouldn’t compromise hydration, it’s cleansing—and Hydro-Ester Cleaning System (HECS) understands the assignment. This elegant, high-performance facial cleanser delivers a thorough yet deeply hydrating cleanse in just one minute, restoring skin purity without disrupting your moisture barrier.

Hydro-Ester Cleaning System takes a smart, dual-action approach: it effectively lifts away daily impurities, SPF, and even the most stubborn waterproof makeup, while simultaneously replenishing essential skin lipids. The result? Skin that looks instantly more radiant and feels noticeably smoother, softer, and beautifully balanced. Gentle enough for daily use on all skin types, this is the kind of cleanser that works hard but feels incredibly kind to your skin.

Formulated with a blend of gentle yet effective cleansing agents, HECS dissolves oil-based debris, waterproof makeup, and UV filters both on the surface and deep within pores. Its lightweight ester base melts everything away, then emulsifies on contact with water to rinse clean in a single, satisfying step, no residue, no tightness, no need for a second cleanse.

What truly sets HECS apart is its commitment to preserving hydration throughout the cleansing process. The formula is enriched with solanum lycopersicum fruit lipids, derived from upcycled organic tomato skins and seed oil. These skin-identical lipids are rich in essential fatty acids that support healthy-looking skin.

Linoleic acid helps support ceramide production, improving moisture retention and reinforcing the skin barrier. Oleic acid enhances hydration and leaves skin feeling soft and supple.

Naturally rich in lycopene and carotene, these fruit lipids also give the formula its warm orange hue.

In line with NIOD’s ethos of responsible innovation, these tomato-derived lipids are sourced from up-cycled materials diverted from food-industry waste. Farmers are paid fairly for their resources and share in the profits, proof that sustainability and performance can coexist beautifully.
