7% Stabilised Vitamin C (tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate)
A low-irritation form of vitamin C that delivers exceptional antioxidant protection against harmful free radical damage while supporting collagen production for a visibly even, more youthful-looking complexion.
Hyaluronic Acid
With the ability to attract and retain more than 1,000 times its own weight in water, hyaluronic acid draws moisture into the upper layers of the skin; leaving the complexion hydrated and visibly supple.
Vitamin E
A powerful antioxidant that provides additional antioxidant protection against the ageing effects of free radicals. It also helps to boost the power of vitamin C for optimum visible results.
Retinyl retinoate is one of the only forms of vitamin A that is photostable, meaning it won't break down or lose its power in sunlight. This allows you to experience powerful, visible vitamin A benefits at both ends of the day.
Retinyl retinoate is particularly effective at protecting the delicate collagen within our skin from the damaging effects of UV light.
Within this innovative formula, retinyl retinoate's age-defying powers are additionally boosted by the same amount of stabilised vitamin C as our C-Tetra serum for powerful antioxidant protection against the ageing effects of external stressors.
