epii HPT6 Ultra Drop 5% – Korean Firming Serum for Fine Lines, Elasticity & Plump Skin
Firm & Smooth with HPT6 5%.
Hydrate. Smooth. Plump.
A lightweight Korean serum for smoother, firmer-looking skin, combining 5% HPT6 with a listed 2% Matrixyl Synthe’6 peptide complex. Panthenol, ectoin, glycerin and allantoin support hydration and comfort, while melatonin, carnosine, ergothioneine and adenosine complement appearance-focused care for fine lines and tired-looking skin.
Patch test and introduce gradually, especially if sensitive or using other active skincare. Avoid direct eye contact and irritated skin; stop if irritation develops. A lower concentration does not guarantee gentler or irritation-free use.
Skin type: Normal, dry, combination, dehydrated or fine-line-prone skin seeking lightweight hydration and firmness support.
Firmer-looking skin care
HPT6, listed as hydroxypropyl tetrahydropyrantriol, complements care for a more supple, firmer-looking complexion. This is cosmetic appearance care, not a lifting treatment.
Smoother-looking fine lines
Matrixyl Synthe’6 peptide complex and adenosine support the appearance of smoothness, alongside hydration that softens fine dryness lines.
Lightweight layering
The comfortable drop-style serum fits beneath moisturiser and SPF without adding a heavy cream layer.
Hydrated, plumper-looking finish
Glycerin, panthenol, ectoin and allantoin complement soft, comfortable moisture care. Antioxidant ingredients support skin conditioning without replacing daily sunscreen.
Texture
A lightweight serum that spreads and absorbs comfortably, with a smooth finish suited to layering in morning or evening routines.
How to use
- Apply after cleansing and toning, before moisturiser.
- Smooth a few drops over the face and neck and gently pat until absorbed.
- Introduce gradually, then use morning and evening if tolerated and in line with current packaging instructions.
- Follow with a comfortable moisturiser and finish with SPF during the day.
Patch test first and introduce one new product at a time. Avoid direct eye contact and irritated skin; discontinue if irritation occurs.
Skin type
Normal, dry, combination, dehydrated, dull or fine-line-prone skin wanting lightweight moisture and smoother, firmer-looking skin.
Sensitive or reactive skin should assess tolerance first. A 5% product is not automatically suitable for every beginner or sensitive skin type.

Routine placement
Morning: Cleanser → Toner → epii HPT6 Ultra Drop 5% → Moisturiser → SPF.
Evening: Cleanser → Toner → epii HPT6 Ultra Drop 5% → Moisturiser.
An epii Ultra Cream can be your moisturiser if it suits your skin; it is not required. Introduce combinations with retinoids or vitamin C gradually and keep the routine simple if irritation develops.
FAQ
Serum or moisturiser?
It is a serum. Apply before your moisturiser.
Can beginners use it?
It may be an option, but patch test and introduce gradually. Concentration alone does not establish tolerance.
How does 5% differ from 10%?
The versions have different labelled HPT6 concentrations. Higher concentration is not automatically better or necessary, and individual tolerance varies.
Can I use it daily?
Use daily if tolerated, following current packaging instructions.
Must I use an epii Ultra Cream?
No. Follow with a suitable moisturiser; an epii cream is an optional choice.
Can I use it with retinol or retinal?
Introduce products separately and gradually. If layering causes irritation, simplify the routine or use on different nights.
Can I use it with vitamin C?
Assess each product’s instructions and your tolerance, introduce combinations gradually, and finish daytime routines with SPF.
Who is it best for?
Skin seeking hydration and appearance-focused care for fine lines, dullness and reduced-looking bounce.
