Key Ingredients

5% Azelaic Acid: Azelaic acid can counter or neutralize free radicals that cause inflammation, providing significant skin-calming effects and helping to improve redness. It also evens skin tone by decreasing pigmentation, inhibiting an enzyme called tyrosinase that leads to hyperpigmentation or dark patches of skin.

2% Alpha Arbutin: Alpha arbutin acts by reducing tyrosinase activity, thereby decreasing the formation of melanin in your skin. This reduction in tyrosine and melanin levels leads to decreased pigmentation and dark patches, ensuring a more even appearance. Alpha arbutin also diminishes age spots, acne scars, and post-blemish redness.

2% Peach Extract: Rich in phenolic compounds, peach tree leaves offer antioxidant activity and protection from the harmful effects of free radicals, helping to reduce the aging process. The extract diminishes inflammation, soothes, and calms sensitive skin, while also helping to fight bacterial and fungal proliferation through its antimicrobial benefits.

1% Hyaluronic Acid HMW: This powerful natural humectant provides long-lasting hydration to improve the look of skin texture. A humectant by nature, it pulls water from the environment to the upper layers of the skin, acting like a sponge.

How to use

  • Using your fingertips, apply 2 pumps to cleansed skin in the morning/evening, prior to your moisturizer.
