A supreme silky, liquid rejuvenating powerhouse of DNA-regenerating Vitamin A and B, collagen-stimulating peptides, potent pre/probiotics, antioxidants and lightening actives. This complete liposomal biomimetic system helps reverse the visible signs of extrinsic ageing — potent ceramides and anti-inflammatories calm the skin while liposomal delivery drives actives deep to instigate epidermal remodelling. Stimulates collagen production and the removal of scar tissue, rebuilding the skin’s vital scaffolding to replicate a more youthful, resilient complexion.
Ideal for: All skin types, including normal, sun-damaged, sensitive and inflamed skin
How to use: Apply 2–3 pumps to clean skin AM, and after your exfoliating serum PM. Can be mixed with other serums if needed.
Retinaldehyde (1%) — Delivers prescription-strength results without the irritation; skin’s natural storage form of Vitamin A, converted to Retinoic Acid within the skin for prolonged, non-irritating release. Physiologically corrects damaged DNA, normalises hyperkeratinisation (reducing congestion in acne and rosacea), compresses distended vessels, minimises hyperpigmentation and stimulates new collagen production from 3 months of use.
Palmitoyl Oligopeptide & Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 — A synergistic peptide duo that refuels collagen and hyaluronic acid production, reduces wrinkle depth and roughness, and accelerates skin healing and regeneration.
Acetyl Tetrapeptide-2 (EGCG) — A green tea-derived biomimetic peptide that activates the skin’s master antioxidant pathway, shields DNA and skin structure, and inhibits melanogenesis and glycation.
Tetrapeptide-30 — Brightens hyperchromatic spots, alleviates melasma and reduces acne lesions with a strong, non-rebound anti-inflammatory effect.
Niacinamide (2%) — Vitamin B3 that repairs barrier function, calms inflammation, normalises hyperpigmentation and regulates sebaceous activity while enhancing delivery of other actives.
Lactobacillus Ferment Lysate (Pre/Probiotic) — Deploys antimicrobial peptides to reduce erythema, itching and flaking, balancing the skin’s microbiome for optimal hydration and resilience.
L-Carnitine — Boosts skin cell turnover and transports fatty acids into the mitochondria to support energy production, hydration and gentle exfoliation.
Squalane — A lightweight, biomimetic emollient that deeply hydrates, protects against oxidative damage and softens fine lines. Hyaluronic Acid (Mid-High & Low Molecular Weight) — Dual-weight hydration that plumps surface tissue, repairs barrier function and calms immune-derived inflammation for lasting moisture.
Phospholipids & Sphingolipids — Plant-derived ceramides in a lamellar, liposomal-delivery structure that restore the skin’s lipid barrier and maintain balanced hydration.
D-Panthenol (Vitamin B5) — Nourishes and strengthens barrier function, calms atopic skin and supports healthy, even-toned skin through fibroblast regulation.
Manuka Honey — A natural antimicrobial and humectant that supports wound healing and skin repair.
CoQ10 — Fuels cellular energy production and neutralises free radicals to help prevent premature ageing.
Seabuckthorn CO2 Oil — Rich in omega 3+6 and vitamins A and E; a potent anti-inflammatory traditionally used to support healing of radiation burns.
Advanced Olive Complex — Forms liquid crystal structures that mimic the skin’s natural barrier, supporting hydration and an elegant skin feel.
