Description

SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF is an advanced daytime antioxidant serum that provides superior environmental protection and is a pigment regulator helping to reduce dullness and discolouration of the skin, it retextures and evens skin tone for a brighter more radiant complexion. Suitable for normal, combination skin with ageing and hyperpigmentation.

Key ingredients include Phloretin, an antioxidant that neutralises free radicals, accelerates cell turnover and reduces the production of unwanted pigment. L-Ascorbic Acid purest form of vitamin C, provides powerful antioxidant benefits that help protect the skin from environmental damage while improving the visible signs of ageing.  Ferulic Acid is a plant-based antioxidant that neutralises free radicals and helps to inhibit UVA, UVB and protect the skin from infrared radiation and harmful ground Ozone which can be a contributing factor to pigmentation. Fragrance-free.

Dr. Webster’s Recommendation: SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF is an extremely popular antioxidant for daytime use as it helps to reduce and prevent dark marks on the skin. In more recent studies it has shown a 20% improvement in more even skin tone. It is important for everyone to use an antioxidant together with sunscreen during the day but even more so for people who spend a great deal of time outdoors, especially in more urban or industrial areas.

SkinCeuticals Antioxidant Charter: Colour variations with this serum can range from almost clear to pale yellow or dark yellow.

Summary

Strength: 10% L-Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) | 2% Phloretin | 0.5% Ferulic Acid

How to Use
  • Apply the serum to the face and neck after cleansing in the morning. Allow it to absorb before applying a moisturiser and sunscreen.
  • Once absorbed this antioxidant remains effective for a minimum of 72 hours, enhancing the benefits of your normal sunscreen.
  • Always put the serum in the fridge for 12 hours before you first use it to restabilise the ingredients. Do not shake the bottle before use.
  • Do not store it in the fridge after it has been opened. Do not store in the sun as it will destabilise the ingredients.
  • This product does not contain a sunscreen. Always apply a sunscreen during the day.
  • All SkinCeuticals antioxidant formulations have been tested in final packaging and have been confirmed to remain stable and effective for 36 months, and up to 12 months after opening. L-ascorbic acid (pure Vitamin C) is known to change colour with time, however, oxidation is minimal in SkinCeuticals antioxidant and the formulation is proven to remain effective. Colour variations with this serum can range from almost clear to pale yellow or dark yellow.
