Description

Dr Barbara Sturm Brightening Serum is a powerful illuminating elixir that provides a natural glow in addition to hydration benefits. Suitable for all skin types with hyperpigmentation.

Key ingredients include powerful plant-based Isoflavones and Phytosterols that help to strengthen and brighten skin, increasing its defences against free radicals. Exopolysaccharides offer smoothing and hydration benefits similar to HA. Purslane Extract is a multitasker with anti-inflammatory, anti-ageing and antioxidant benefits. Hyaluronic Acid and Panthenol hydrate, soothe and protect the skin. Optical Pigments (Iron and Titanium Oxide) provide an instant shimmer and glow. Ginseng Extract and Vitamin E are additional potent antioxidants. Fragrance-free. Pregnancy safe.

Dr Webster’s Recommendation: Dr Barbara Sturm Brightening Serum makes use of superior quality skin-boosting ingredients that not only build a healthy barrier, but also reduce uneven skin tone. When used in combination with a Dr Sturm brightening moisturiser, it tackles lacklustre and dull skin, providing a hydrated and healthy luminescence. Lipid-based serums have a milky consistency and these serums should be used after cleansing and after applying your water-based serums (if you are using two or more serums).
