Description

This luminous treatment combines cutting-edge science with pure, ethically sourced botanicals for skin-brightening results.

ABSO, Epicutis's proprietary extract derived from burdock seed, works in harmony with Hyvia®, a patented moisturizer from organic non-GMO chia seed oil, to deliver intense hydration while working on dark spots and uneven tone. Canadian white pine bark extract provides additional protection against environmental stressors.

Signum Biosciences technology helps these potent ingredients penetrate deeply, for a complexion that radiates with a natural glow, with evenness that improves over time.

Why We Love It

• ABSO to brighten skin tone
• Hyvia® to boost hydration and barrier function
• DSD to help protect skin from environmental aggressors
• Ferulic Acid to neutralize free radical damage

How to Use

Apply a pea-sized amount to your face, neck, décolleté and targeted areas. Use your fingertips to spread the product evenly across each area. For optimal results, use morning and night following the Lipid Serum. Can be followed with Hyvia® Crème for intense hydration, or used on its own as a finishing product.
