Description
Anti-oxidant is essential as part of the anti-aging skincare routine. It offers inside protection by strengthening skin’s resilience from free radical damage induced by environmental stressors like UVA, UVB, IRA and pollution.
It offers outside correction to improve skin tone, diminish fine lines, enhance radiance and retexture.
Complements injectables, chemical peels, laser procedures for photodamage, laxity and rosacea.
A triple antioxidant cocktail formulation offers broad-range environmental protection due to a synergistic combination featuring 2% Phloretin, 10% pure vitamin C (L-ascorbic Acid), and 0.5% Ferulic Acid. This protective face serum also improves the appearance of discoloration.
Phloretin CF is formulated under the Duke Antioxidant patent which ensures effective delivery of vitamin C to skin. In order for a vitamin C serum to be effective it must be formulated with pure L-ascorbic Acid (vitamin C) at an acidic pH within the 2.0-3.5 pH range and have a concentration between 10-20%. SkinCeuticals is the only brand to formulate antioxidants according to these parameters.
Directions
In the morning after cleansing and toning, apply 4-5 drops to a dry face, neck, and chest before other skincare products. May be used on the back of the hands. It is normal for vitamin C products to darken after opening due to air and light exposure. The formula will remain effective. Once opened, it is recommended to be used within 3 months of opening.
Complete your regimen with a SkinCeuticals sunscreen. When used together, SkinCeuticals antioxidants and broad spectrum sunscreens provide the most complete protection against visible aging caused by environmental aggressors.
