Best for

 
  • Normal to oily and combination skin types. 
  • Skin that is blemish-prone or congested, showing early signs of ageing (e.g., fine lines, uneven tone) and excess oil/shine. 
  • Users seeking a daily antioxidant serum tailored to oil control and improved clarity, rather than a typical moisturising or retinol treatment.

Benefits

 
  • Offers advanced antioxidant protection from environmental aggressors like UV radiation, pollution and free-radicals. 
  • Helps prevent oil oxidation, a process where sebum oxidises and contributes to blemish formation; shown to reduce oil oxidation by up to 76% in clinical testing. 
  • Reduces excess oiliness, controls shine and refines skin texture, leading to smoother appearance and smaller-looking pores. 
  • Improves skin clarity, radiance and uneven skin tone while also softening the appearance of fine lines.
  • Oil-free and designed for blemish-prone/oily skin so it layers well and doesn’t feel heavy or clogging.

Ingredients

 

Key Active Ingredients:

  • 15% L-Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C): Major antioxidant that neutralises free radicals, supports collagen production and improves visible signs of ageing.
  • 0.5% Silymarin (Milk Thistle Extract): A plant-derived antioxidant formulated to prevent oil oxidation and reduce risk of blemish formation. 
  • 0.5% Ferulic Acid: A stabilising antioxidant that boosts the effectiveness of vitamin C and enhances protection against free radical damage. 
  • 0.5% Salicylic Acid (BHA): A beta-hydroxy acid that helps exfoliate pores, reduce clogging and refine skin texture - ideal for oily/blemish-prone skin. 

Formulation Features:

  • Oil-free texture
  • Paraben-free, dye-free in many listings
  • Specifically formulated for oily/blemish-prone skin types.

How to Use

 

1. In the morning, after cleansing (and toning if used), apply 4–5 drops of the serum to clean, dry skin on the face, neck and chest. 
2. Follow with your moisturiser (if used) then broad-spectrum sunscreen. Because the formula includes exfoliating actives (salicylic acid) and strong antioxidant (vitamin C), sun protection is essential.
3. If your skin is new to salicylic acid or active formulas, you may begin use every other morning, then build to daily use as tolerated. 
4. Store the product away from direct light/heat; consistent daily use will maximise the visible benefits.
