Product Description

Retinart, Ectoin and Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) form a trio of high-performance active ingredients in this advanced serum that helps improve skin texture, hydration and clarity. Designed to support renewal and protection, it promotes a smoother, more refined appearance and leaves skin looking radiant and balanced.

Key Actives
  • Algaktiv Retinart 2%: A gentle bio-retinoid derived from sustainable microalgae. Retinart helps smooth the feel of the skin, brighten the look of dullness and support a more even-looking complexion. At a 2% concentration, it offers retinoid-like performance with a comfortable, easy-to-use profile.

  • Ectoin Natural 2%: An extremolyte molecule found in microorganisms that thrive in high-salt desert environments. Ectoin helps protect the skin from everyday stressors, supports hydration and leaves the complexion feeling smooth and comfortable. It is known for helping improve the appearance of fine lines and uneven tone, while keeping skin feeling resilient and well-moisturised.

  • Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) 3%: A versatile vitamin that helps brighten the look of dull skin, support a more even appearance and balance the feel of oil flow. Niacinamide also helps calm the look of redness, leaving the skin feeling smooth and refreshed.
