Product Details

A highly effective peptide-enriched daily serum and the top seller in the Serene line, a versatile option that may be suitable for all skin types and ages. Powered by three proprietary Defensil ingredients (Defensil-Plus, Defensil, and Defensil-Soft), this serum is designed to support a more comfortable-feeling skin barrier. Black Currant Seed Oil and Balloon Vine Extract help address the appearance of dryness and irritation while supporting a more comfortable-feeling complexion. Cucumber and Arnica Extracts help support hydration and a calmer-looking complexion. Acetyl Tetrapeptide-40 helps address the appearance of facial redness and supports a more even-looking skin tone. Sodium Hyaluronate provides a localized delivery system that keeps the serum where it's applied for targeted, comfortable support.
