Our review
The perfect brightening formula does exist – no exfoliation needed —and it's right here. Combining ancient philosophy with modern-day clinical studies, we've developed the ultimate solution for those dreaming of luminous skin without the effects of exfoliants and reduced risk of irritation. Supercharged with an adaptogenic star ingredient, our clinically proven 5% Mushroom Complex is a blend of Reishi and Shiitake Mushrooms, a combination that gives your skin a luminous brilliance from within, and simultaneously strengthens your skin in the long-term. Used in traditional medicine for thousands of years, this powerhouse duo was shown to increase hydration by 30%, firmness by over 40%, and cell turnover by 18.5%, while also reducing the appearance of fine lines by 35%.* Our all-star line-up of Key Allies includes a potent formulation of 3% Tranexamic Acid, 2% Alpha Arbutin, and 5% Niacinamide, which is proven to gently reduce the size of age spots by 13% over 8 weeks.** This formula is the perfect at-home-complement to professional skin discolouration treatments, such as chemical peels or non-ablative laser treatments.*** Even when skin is sensitised, our serum is the perfect way to strengthen and support your complexion. With its liquid-soft, smooth texture, this serum sinks easily into damp skin. Directions of use: After cleansing and misting or toning, apply 1-3 pumps to face and neck. Follow up with your favourite moisturiser. Always use SPF as the final step in your routine. *According to ACB Mushroom Extract SM PF in-vivo efficacy test result of 12 weeks **According to Hakozaki, T et al.
