When and how often should I apply it?

Apply the activated serum to clean skin in the morning and at night. Leave it on rather than rinsing it away.

How should I store it after activation, and how soon should I use it?

Return the serum to its pouch after use and keep it in a cool, dry place. For optimal results, use it within 30 days of activation.

Does the serum feel sticky or tacky after application?

No. The ultra-lightweight liquid sinks into skin without a sticky or tacky feeling.

Can it be worn under makeup?

Yes. Its lightweight, non-tacky texture is designed to wear well under makeup.

Which skin types is it intended for?

It is intended for all skin types, including sensitive skin. The formula is also dermatologist tested.

Why does the vitamin ball come separately from the liquid serum?

Is the formula fragrance-free?

Yes. The product is listed as free from fragrance and synthetic fragrance.

Should I wear sunscreen while using this serum?

PRODUCT DETAILS

A bright idea, kept fresh until you’re ready. This leave-on serum pairs a freeze-dried vitamin C and niacinamide ball with a separate, ultra-lightweight liquid. The freeze-dried design helps keep the vitamin capsule stable and potent before the two parts are mixed.

Once activated, the formula helps give your skin a brighter, more even-looking tone. It also helps reduce the look of dark spots and post-blemish marks, while softening the appearance of fine lines. It’s focused care for days when dullness or uneven tone feels more noticeable.

The ultra-lightweight liquid sinks in without a sticky or tacky feel and wears well under makeup. That light finish makes it an appealing choice for either a morning or nighttime routine.

It’s intended for all skin types, including sensitive skin, and the dermatologist-tested formula is fragrance-free. For a brightening serum without a tacky finish, it keeps the experience refreshingly straightforward.
