Illuminating Exfoliating Serum

$48.00

This oil-free, multi-layered serum is designed to hydrate, calm, and gently exfoliate even the most sensitive skin. Illuminating Exfoliating Serum supports moisture retention while softly lifting dull surface cells for a clearer, brighter, more luminous complexion. Wild pansy, marshmallow root, and aloe vera soothe and hydrate, while willow bark–derived salicin and a low dose of lactic acid refine texture without irritation. Antioxidants from green tea and pomegranate defend against environmental stress, and moth bean extract supports cellular renewal to help soften the appearance of hyperpigmentation and scarring. Lightweight, gel-textured, and subtly scented with green tea notes, this serum offers visible radiance with exceptional gentleness.

PLANT ALLIES:

  • Wild Pansy – supports hydration and skin clarity
  • Willow Bark – provides gentle exfoliation to refine texture
  • Green Tea – delivers antioxidant protection and calming support

KEY BENEFITS:

  • Gently exfoliates to improve tone, clarity, and texture
  • Hydrates and calms sensitive skin while supporting luminosity

Ideal For

Ideal for sensitive, reactive, or easily dehydrated skin types seeking gentle exfoliation without irritation. Well suited for dull, uneven, or congested skin, and for those new to exfoliating acids.

How to Use

Apply 1–2 pumps to clean, damp or dry skin. Follow with facial oil or moisturizer. A light film may be felt for up to 30 seconds while absorbing. Can be blended with oil or moisturizer to create a micro-emulsion.

For sensitive skin, use up to 3 times weekly. For more exfoliation, use up to once daily. Maintenance use is best at 3–5 times per week.

As a spot or zone treatment, apply a thick layer and allow to dry for 5–10 minutes, then gently remove any film with a damp cloth.
