Description

SkinCeuticals Silymarin CF is a triple antioxidant serum that delivers advanced environmental protection, whilst reducing oiliness, refining skin texture, and visibly improving skin tone & clarity. Suitable for oily, acne-prone skin.

Key ingredients include Silymarin an antioxidant derived from the Milk Thistle plant helps to prevent oil oxidation that can lead to breakouts. Salicylic acid provides effective exfoliation, refines pores, and helps reduce the formation of blemishes. L-Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) with its superior antioxidant benefits, this highly potent form of pure vitamin C helps neutralize free radicals and protect against oxidative stress while providing visible anti-ageing benefits. Ferulic Acid neutralises free radicals and enhances the antioxidant benefits and stability of vitamin C. Oil, fragrance and silicone-free. Dermatologically tested.

Dr Webster’s Recommendation: This innovative antioxidant serum has been in development for some time, with SkinCeuticals’ founder Dr. Sheldon Pennell having patented the use of Silymarin an antioxidant formulation some 18 years ago! SkinCeuticals Silymarin CF improves sebum quality, resulting in fewer instances of breakouts. In more recent studies it has shown a 27% improvement in the reduction of blemishes. Ideal for adult acne-prone patients who also suffer from skin ageing, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, dullness, and lack of radiance. Skin purging may occur after the first application, a sign of the ingredients working.

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