The serum targets wrinkles, combats sun damage and leaves skin silky smooth. Acts as a vasoconstrictor to help reduce facial redness. A very lightweight product that is suitable for all skin types and is also perfect for use under our Vitamin A Retinol Day and Night Cream. Retinol reduces fine lines and wrinkles by boostingcollagen production. It boosts the skin's blood circulation, improving the complexion. Additional benefits include fading age spots and softer skin.
This serum is infused with:
Corn gluten amino acids, a natural humectant that attracts and retains moisture, leaving skin smoother and softer.
Yeast Ferment Extract stimulates the skin's natural renewal process, improving elasticity and increasing moisture levels, leaving skin smoother, fresher and more youthful.
Avena sativa peptide (oats) penetrates deeper into the skin, soothing irritated skin, reducing redness and irritation, strengthening the skin barrier and retaining moisture.
A unique peptide blend of oligopeptide-1, -2 and -5. These peptides have been shown to reduce wrinkles and skin pore size, improve the skin's natural barrier, reduce scars and rebuild skin after severe breakouts.
We have also added hydrolyzed silk for a smooth silky texture that improves skin softness and hydration. It forms a protective film on the skin, helping to retain moisture and improve elasticity. Hydrolyzed silk also contains amino acids that support skin regeneration, reduce the appearance of fine lines and promote a radiant, youthful complexion.
It takes three to six months of consistent use to see visible improvement in wrinkles, with optimal results typically achieved after six to twelve months.

**Our Sodium hyaluronate is a combination of Macromolecular hyaluronic acid and Small molecule hyaluronic acid.
Small-weight hyaluronan molecules penetrate deeper into the skin’s structure,providing maximum below-the-surface hydration and in turn rehydrating skin cells over time.
Macromolecular hyaluronic molecules deliver immediate intensive hydration to the surface layers of the skin for an instant smoothing and firming effect.
