This lightweight oil-free Serum is formulated with the power couple Hyaluronic Acid and Pro Vitamin B5 to provide an instant intense hydration boost.

Hyaluronic Acid is a potent hydrator and natural moisturiser and attracts and holds moisture, giving your skin an instant, intense dose of hydration.
Dehydrated skin is left dewy, supple and visibly plumped, while skin texture is improved, and the appearance of fine lines is reduced.

The added benefit of Pro Vitamin B5 is that it also keeps your skin hydrated and attracts water to the outer skin layer, holding moisture whilst improving the skin’s elasticity including a more supple appearance. It acts as a humectant AND an emollient meaning that it does not only attract and bind water but also seal in tiny cracks in the skin.

Aloe Vera and Green Tea will soothe your skin and supply your skin with a generous amount of anti-oxidants and help to control breakouts.

Suitable for all skin types, this serum can be seamlessly incorporated into any skincare routine.

DIRECTIONS

• HYALURONIC ACID also called Hyaluronan and abbreviated as HA, is a glycosaminoglycan, a fancy name for a vital naturally-occurring substance that’s part of skin’s youth-supporting matrix and naturally produced by your body. Hyaluronan is of fundamental importance to our skin: as we’ll see, it provides our skin with essential hydration.
  Hyaluronic acid infuses the skin cells with water, improving your skin’s ability to absorb moisture and nutrients. This is due to hyaluronic acid’s astonishing ability to hold up to one thousand times its molecular weight in water within the cells of the skin. It reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by smoothing and plumping up your skin cells, making the contours of your face appear more youthful and radiant.
   
• PRO-VITAMIN B5 (Panthenol)
  Panthenol converts into Pro-Vitamin B5 or Pantothenic Acid in contact with skin.
  It attracts water to the outer skin layer and deeply hydrates the skin, holding moisture whilst improving the skin’s elasticity including a more supple appearance.
  Unlike other common moisturising ingredients such as Hyaluronic Acid, Panthenol has the added advantage of acting as both a humectant and an emollient. Humectants attract to and bind water to the skin, while emollients seal in the cracks in the skin, keeping that water locked in.
  Clinical research has found that not only is Pro-Vitamin B5 extremely moisturising, but when regularly used over a period of four weeks or more it can help to take on an anti-inflammatory role, relieving systemic itching, whilst also helping to soothe dry skin, accelerating wound healing.  *Ebner F, Heller A, Rippke F, Tausch I (2002). "Topical Use of Dexpanthenol in Skin Disorders". American Journal of Clinical Dermatology. 3 (6): 427–433.
  Topically applied Pro-Vitamin B5 in amounts between 1-5% has been reported to aid in healing and barrier repair.
   
• ALOE VERA
  is commonly used in cosmetic formulations and is composed of mainly water, along with polysaccharides, anthraquinones, amino acids, glycosides, minerals, flavones, phytosterols and salicylic acid. Aloe Vera is a natural skin soother, perfect for allergy-prone, itchy or red skin and keeps the skin hydrated.
  Aloe Vera is celebrated for its ability to help soothe irritated skin. It also contains an abundance of skin-friendly substances, including amino acids. These nutrients can help calm the feel of irritated, sensitized skin and may help the skin recover from irritation more quickly.
  Although Aloe Vera alone is unlikely to significantly shrink stubborn pimples, it does have a place in your routine for acne-prone skin. Aloe is a natural source of salicylic acid, a beta-hydroxy acid best known for its use in anti-acne skincare treatments. Research indicates that Aloe Vera can help reduce the appearance of some forms of acne and help address the visible redness that often accompanies chronic breakouts.
   
• GREEN TEA EXTRACT
  can help shield skin from the effects of environmental damage and may actually decrease wrinkles. Green Tea Leaf Extract is anti-oxidant rich and has been found to be 20 times more antioxidant-active than Vitamin C, useful against irritated skin and reduces redness and inflammation and a large review demonstrated that it may help with dermatitis and rosacea. As green tea is such a strong anti-inflammatory, it can help with acne. Studies have shown that the polyphenols in green tea can help neutralise harmful free radicals, which can cause significant damage to the skin.
  
  *Antioxidants 
  As we age, important substances in our skin’s surface start to break down, making the skin feel less firm and wrinkles may start to develop. A powerful blend of antioxidants fights free radicals and can slow down the deterioration process, helping the skin to regain its firmness.
  Free radicals are highly reactive, unstable molecules that can cause no end of trouble for healthy skin cells. Your body naturally produces free radicals, but it is also exposed to them via external sources, e.g. pollution, UV light and cigarette smoke.
  Antioxidants help to calm and soothe the skin. If you suffer from a sensitive skin with redness, you will benefit from antioxidants such as green tea.
  Scientific research has proven that antioxidants help to visibly reduce and soften the appearance of wrinkles.
