Why? FACE TONIQ:
Builds Skin Structure
Linoleic acid is an essential fatty acid the body cannot produce. It becomes incorporated into specialised skin barrier lipids and is an indispensable precursor for ceramide synthesis. Together, these structural roles help build and maintain skin barrier integrity, supporting hydration, resilience and healthy skin function.
Directs Skin Biology
Linoleic acid is more than a structural nutrient. It also acts as a biological signalling molecule, helping direct cell renewal, differentiation, desquamation, inflammatory responses and healthy sebum composition. These processes work together to maintain normal skin homeostasis and healthy skin function.
Protects Skin Structure
Unfermented White Grape Seed Extract helps protect what has been built. Rich in naturally occurring grape polyphenols, including proanthocyanidins, it helps defend barrier lipids, collagen and elastin from oxidative damage while helping inhibit enzymes involved in their degradation. Together these actions help maintain skin strength, elasticity and structural integrity.
Preserves Skin Biology
Healthy skin depends on biological processes remaining intact over time. Unfermented White Grape Seed Extract helps preserve these processes by moderating oxidative stress and inflammatory signalling while helping inhibit pathways associated with excess pigmentation. Together with linoleic acid, it supports the skin's natural defence systems to help preserve healthy skin function.
Essential fatty acids for healthy skin function
Ingredients
Cold pressed, raw Vitis vinifera seed oil and unfermented White Grape Seed Extract.
Application
Shake well before each use. The naturally occurring White Grape Seed Extract settles in the bottle. This is to be expected and reflects the minimal processing used to preserve its complex profile of grape-derived polyphenols.
Apply 3–4 drops, or as required, to very slightly damp skin over the face, neck and décolletage morning and evening.
Each 30 mL bottle provides approximately 300 applications. Each pipette holds approximately 0.4 mL. Your skin will guide you. Use a little more or less as required.
Allow 5–10 minutes for Face TonIQ to penetrate and absorb before applying zinc mineral sunscreen during the day.
For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. If accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. Spot test before first use. If irritation occurs, discontinue use.
A Simpler Skincare Ritual
Vitis V Face TonIQ was designed to simplify skincare and works most effectively as your complete skincare ritual together with zinc mineral sunscreen during the day.
- Cleanse — Warm water a soft cloth and gentle physical action.
- Build, Direct, Protect & Preserve — Apply Vitis V Face TonIQ to very slightly damp skin.
- Pause — Allow 5–10 minutes for Face TonIQ to penetrate and absorb before applying anything further.
Daytime: Apply zinc mineral sunscreen after Face TonIQ has fully absorbed.
For oil-based make-up or zinc mineral sunscreen removal, use a small amount of castor oil followed by a warm, damp soft cloth.
Why TonIQ?
There is a reason Vitis V was never called a serum, an oil, a moisturiser or a cream.
The IQ is deliberate.
It represents the intelligence already present in nature, the intelligence inherent in healthy skin biology to build, direct, protect and preserve its own function, and the intelligence to choose only ingredients that are biologically essential and biologically aligned.
Appearance
Face TonIQ has a hazy olive, khaki-brown appearance with visible flecks of grape-derived polyphenols. The colour, clarity and aroma will vary slightly from batch to batch, reflecting variation in the grape seeds and our commitment to preserving biological integrity through minimal intervention.
Aroma
Face TonIQ has toasted, nutty and grape notes that come entirely from its ingredients. Warm and comforting. Wholesome and real
We do not add fragrance, parfum or essential oils. The aroma you experience is the authentic character of the grape seeds themselves.
Unscented and fragrance free
Storage
Store below 25°C, away from direct sunlight.
Precautions
As with any skincare product, there is a risk of irritation or allergic reaction.
Do not use if you are allergic to grapes.
Some people may experience a temporary adjustment period as the skin adapts to a simpler skincare ritual and existing congestion clears.
Our six-month best before reflects our philosophy. Rather than extending shelf life through industrial processing or synthetic stabilisers and preservatives, we retain the naturally occurring essential fatty acids and phytonutrients nature has already created.
The result is a product that remains biologically active, preserving the biological integrity and original phytochemical profile of the ingredients rather than being chemically engineered to artificially extend shelf life.
If the product is past its best before date and has develops a stale aroma, discontinue use. This indicates the oil has oxidised.
Less skincare. Healthy skin function. For life.
Vitis V Face TonIQ contains only naturally occurring phytonutrients in a synergistic blend.
Typical analysis of grapeseed oil.
Please note that the phytonutrient composition provided below represents typical values for grapeseed oil. However, as a natural product, variations do occur from batch to batch. The values listed are intended to give an indication of the approximate range, but actual percentages may vary slightly. This is indicative of the grapeseed oil component of Vitis V Face TonIQ.
Vitis V Face TonIQ is blended with unfermented white grape seed extract to increase its procyanidin content, proanthocyanidins super antioxidants 50 times stronger than Vitamin C known to neutralise oxidation, protect collagen, stimulate new skin cells, boost antioxidant defences, reduce UV damage, inhibit the enzymes responsible for hyperpigmentation and bind tightly to metal ions stopping the initiation of the cascading oxidation reactions.

Healthy skin begins with what is biologically essential. Vitis V doesn't attempt to change how skin works. It supplies the biologically essential nutrients required to build, direct, protect and preserve healthy skin function.
Healthy skin begins with,
What is biologically Essential.
Vitis V Face TonIQ supports healthy skin function by supplying the essential fatty acid linoleic acid together with a complex profile of naturally occurring grape-derived antioxidants. Together, these biologically essential nutrients work to build, direct, protect and preserve healthy skin function.
Builds Skin Structure
Linoleic acid is an essential fatty acid the body cannot produce. It becomes incorporated into specialised skin barrier lipids and is a critical precursor for ceramide synthesis, helping maintain barrier integrity, hydration and resilience.
Directs Skin Biology
Beyond its structural role, linoleic acid acts as a biological signalling molecule. It helps direct cell renewal, differentiation, desquamation, inflammatory responses and healthy sebum composition to support normal skin homeostasis.
Protects Skin Structure
White Grape Seed Extract provides a complex profile of grape-derived polyphenols, including proanthocyanidins, which help protect barrier lipids, collagen and elastin from oxidative damage while helping inhibit collagen-degrading enzymes.
Preserves Skin Biology
Working alongside linoleic acid, grape polyphenols help preserve healthy skin biology by moderating oxidative stress, supporting the skin's natural defence systems and helping maintain healthy skin function over time.
Healthy Skin Function
By supporting the biological structure and processes essential for healthy skin function, Vitis V supports the foundation, hydration, resilience, comfort and a clearer, more even-looking complexion. This is the natural expression of healthy skin function.
