smart serums - what you need to know responds to biological changes
adapts to skin fluctuations
treats multiple conditions
Smart actives are ingredients within a serum style formula that have the ability to ‘switch on’ when they detect minute biological changes in your skin. Delivering what your skin needs, when and where it needs it. This micromanagement of our skin helps maintain skin health and minimises development of common symptoms such as redness, dehydration, dullness and ageing.
Our skin is exposed to varying climates throughout the day, from UV rays triggering a pigment response to pollution causing barrier damage and oxidative stress. Many environments also sap the moisture from our skin, think central heating or air conditioning. Through detecting the skin’s unique signals during these times, smart serums can adapt to your ever-fluctuating skin condition keeping skin in balance.
The beauty of a smart serum is its ability to treat multiple skin conditions at the same time. Perfect if you have multiple concerns or a combination skin. This can limit the need for multiple serums in your regimen, great if you’re a skinimalist! A truly customised formula working for your unique needs, when and where you need it.
