Highlights
Suitable for
All skin types, especially sensitive, dehydrated, aging, and symptomatic
Why we stand behind it
This groundbreaking serum works to replenish and maintain the skin′s barrier layer while balancing moisture levels to address dry, dehydrated skin.
Good for skin with dermatitis-related conditions (allergic and atopic), sensitive skin, and rosacea-prone skin.
Key ingredients
Ceramides: Lipid molecules within cell membranes, they help cells form a protective layer that plumps skin and retains moisture.
Plankton extract: Restructures the skin matrix for improved barrier function.
Sodium hyaluronate: Occurs naturally in skin, maintaining its moisture and elasticity. This large molecule can’t fully penetrate the skin’s outer layers to fill wrinkles, yet it’s a wonderful humectant, holding up to 1000x its own weight in water.
L-arginine: Also known as L-glutamine, this amino acid is proven to play an important role in the growth of fibroblast cells.
Sodium PCA: A humectant found in human skin has high water absorbing properties, and the ability to absorb moisture from the air.
Phosphatidyl serine: Some studies show topical application slows wrinkling by inhibiting enzymes that break down collagen.
Magnesium chloride: May help alleviate dryness/inflammation in magnesium deficient skin by increasing elasticity and moisture.

What is an undertone?
An undertone is the color beneath the surface of your skin, which never changes (even with a tan). There are three types of undertones:
Pink/Cool
I see red or pink undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin burns easily, but barely tans.
My skin looks better in silver jewelry than gold.
Neutral
I see both pink and yellow undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin sometimes burns and sometimes tans.
My skin looks good in both gold and silver jewelry.
Yellow/Warm
I see yellow or golden undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin rarely burns, but tans easily.
My skin looks better in gold jewelry than silver.
