Radiant Swiss Apple Serum
Mild salicylic smooths and opens skin to absorb Swiss Apple Stem Cells. Good for all but sensitive skin types, and pairs nicely with companion crème, Radiant Swiss Apple Crème. Reveal and renew with this dynamic serum offering a powerful complex of five proven natural origin skin illuminators and plant derived stem cells from the Malus Domestica Swiss Apple. Antioxidant Tetrahydrocurcuminoids, derived from Tumeric, Ferulic Acid and Resveratrol elevate topical defense to UV aggression. Hydroquinone-free, this serum targets lack of uniformity and discoloration often caused by daily environmental exposure.
Benefits:
- Arbutin is an extract of the Bearberry plant which contains pigmentation fading agents. Arbutin protects the skin against damage caused by free radicals and inhibits the formation of melanin pigment.
- Azelaic acid is a naturally occurring dicarboxylic acid that reduces melanin production by inhibiting tyrosinase. It suppresses the proliferation of abnormal melanin producing cells (melanocytes), by reducing the rate of DNA synthesis.
- MAP (Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate) offers inhibitory effects on melanogenesis, promotion of collagen synthesis, and prevention of lipid peroxidation. MAP is a phosphate ester and is easily hydrolyzed to ascorbic acid in the skin by enzymes (phosphatase).
- Apple Stem Cells are derived from a rare Swiss Apple which demonstrates the ability to delay chronological aging.
