Phloretin CF

Phloretin CF features a patented synergistic combination of 2% phloretin, 10% pure vitamin C (l-ascorbic acid), and 0.5% ferulic acid for enhanced protection against atmospheric skin aging – environmental damage and premature signs of aging caused by free radicals from UVA/UVB, infrared radiation (IRA), and ozone pollution (O3). In addition to antioxidant protective benefits, Phloretin CF improves the appearance of discoloration, fine lines, and uneven skin tone.

Key Benefits

• Provides advanced environmental protection by neutralizing damaging free radicals
• Improves the appearance of discoloration and overall skin tone
• Once absorbed, this vitamin C serum remains effective for a minimum of 72 hours
• Paraben-, fragrance-, and dye-free
• Ideal for normal, oily, and combination skin types

Key Ingredients 

• 2% phloretin
  Derived from apples and the root bark of fruit trees including apple, pear, and grapefruit, this antioxidant neutralizes damaging free radicals, helps improve cell turnover, and improves the appearance of discoloration
• 10% L-ascorbic acid
  Lauded for its superior antioxidant benefits, this highly potent form of pure vitamin C neutralizes damaging free radicals and protects against oxidative stress while providing visible anti-aging benefits
• 0.5% ferulic acid
  A plant-based antioxidant, ferulic acid neutralizes free radicals and enhances the antioxidant benefits of phloretin and vitamins C and E

Discoloration Defense

Everyday elements—including UV exposure, prescription drugs, and some professional treatments—can trigger production of melanin in the skin’s lowest epidermal layers. This excess melanin rises to the surface of the skin, causing visible skin discoloration. Discoloration can manifest in a range of ways, including post-acne marks and stubborn brown patches on the cheekbones, forehead, and upper lip.

Discoloration Defense is the latest-generation dark spot corrector, using a combination of potent and proven anti-discoloration ingredients—including new tranexamic acid—to address key types of skin discoloration.

Key Benefits

• Features a synergistic blend of anti-discoloration ingredients to reduce the appearance of skin discoloration, improve brightness, and minimize the recurrence of discoloration (with continued use)
• 60% average improvement in the appearance of stubborn brown patches
• 34% average reduction in post-blemish marks in deeper skin tones
• Paraben-, fragrance-, silicone-, gluten-, and hydroquinone-free
• Ideal at-home complement to professional skin discoloration treatments, such as chemical peels or non-ablative laser; always consult with a physician for individual regimen recommendations

Key Ingredients

3% Tranexamic Acid
This synthetically-derived ingredient minimizes the recurrence of skin discoloration and stubborn brown patches with continued use.

1% Kojic Acid
Naturally produced by certain fungi, kojic acid helps improve skin brightness.

5% Niacinamide
Also known as vitamin B3, this water-soluble vitamin is found naturally in yeast, meat, fish, milk, eggs, green vegetables, beans, and cereal grains. It has been shown to help reduce the appearance of skin discoloration.

5% HEPES
This synthetically-derived acid activates natural enzymes in skin to help break the bonds that bind dead skin cells to the surface for even exfoliation.

Retinol 0.5 

Retinol 0.5 contains 0.5% pure retinol and is enhanced with the latest stabilization and delivery technologies to ensure a steady, even release. Designed to help diminish the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and skin discoloration, this retinol night cream can refine the appearance of pores, while reducing the appearance of blemishes associated with problematic skin.
