★ ★ ★ ★ ★300+ 5-star reviews- •2% Bidens Pilosa, a plant-derived retinol alternative.
- •Helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- •Deep hydration from hyaluronic acid, aloe and sodium PCA.
- •Silky, fast-absorbing texture with a soft rose and geranium aroma.
A daily moisturiser built around 2% Bidens Pilosa, a plant derived alternative to retinol, without the sting or the peeling.
It sits in a base of murumuru and mango seed butters with sea buckthorn oil, while hyaluronic acid, aloe and sodium PCA hold water in the upper layers of the skin. The texture is silky and absorbs quickly, so it layers cleanly under SPF in the morning.
The soft rose and geranium scent comes from natural aromatic substances rather than synthetic fragrance.
Used morning and evening on cleansed skin, it helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and leaves texture looking smoother over time.
