Vitamin C

Vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, is an essential nutrient found in various foods and supplements. It provides numerous benefits, including antioxidant protection, collagen production, and immune system support.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide, a form of vitamin B3, is a skincare ingredient known for its benefits. It helps improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, fade dark spots, and regulate oil production.

Pomegranate Complexion Primer

A skin-perfecting formula with brightening Pomegranate Oil and reparative Niacinamide.

Innovative, clean, and cruelty-free, this formula is infused with Pomegranate Seed Oil, which helps enhance youthful skin. This star ingredient is an anti-inflammatory extract that aids skin repair and increases collagen production while helping to protect against UV damage and skin-ageing pollution.

Bakuchiol (natural retinol alternative)

Bakuchiol is a plant-derived compound considered a natural retinol alternative. It offers skin benefits like reducing wrinkles, improving skin texture, and enhancing collagen production without retinol's potential irritations.

Bakuchiol Boost Face Oil

Retinol who? Banish breakouts, wrinkles, and pigmentation with this kinder alternative to Vitamin A!

Say hello to Bakuchiol Boost Face Oil with 2% Bakuchiol - a powerful alternative to Vitamin A. The certified vegan and cruelty free formula helps skin truly glow with up to 50% less redness in 7 days, 30% reduction in breakout severity and 38% improvement in the appearance of wrinkles – in just 12 weeks (clinical study of 17 Australian women).
This face oil is ideal for clean beauty lovers, plus those with sensitive skin or who react to standard retinoids. It is safe for use day or night as it doesn’t break down under UV exposure like retinol.

 

AHAs

AHAs, or Alpha Hydroxy Acids, are chemical compounds used in skincare for their exfoliating properties. They benefit the skin by removing dead cells, improving texture, and promoting a radiant complexion.

Caviar Lime AHA Resurfacing Serum

Active ingredient serums can be powerful allies in your skincare routine. Whether you're targeting acne, signs of aging, hyperpigmentation, or simply aiming for a healthy, radiant complexion, there's likely a serum out there with the right active ingredients for you.

These serums offer concentrated doses of potent compounds salicylic acid, vitamin C, niacinamide, bakuchiol, AHAs and more, designed to address specific skin concerns. However, it's essential to choose serums that match your skin type and concerns, introduce them gradually, and use sun protection as some ingredients can make your skin more sun sensitive.

Remember that patience is key with active ingredient serums. Results often take time to manifest, so consistent use over several weeks or even months is necessary for the best outcomes. If you're unsure about which serums are right for you, consulting a dermatologist or skincare professional can help you create a personalized regimen tailored to your unique needs.
