Description

An antioxidant serum with an unusual centerpiece. Allyl PQQ is a stabilized form of pyrroloquinoline quinone, which acts on the mitochondria rather than only on the skin surface.

Around it sit vitamin C as tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, vitamin E, plankton extract, micrococcus lysate and a proprietary botanical antioxidant blend. Worn in the morning, beneath sunscreen.

Why we love it

  • Proprietary complex of antioxidants that uniquely defends against a spectrum of environmental assaults
  • Goes beyond Vitamins C and E to include 17 additional antioxidants
  • Proprietary, highly advanced antioxidant protection that targets internal oxidative stress and supports the skin's renewal process
  • Neutralizes intrinsic free radicals generated by the skin's natural aging process
  • Reduces UV-induced redness

About the Brand

skinbetter science was formed in 2016 to establish a biotech-based paradigm in skincare. Its founders built Medicis Pharmaceutical Corporation between 1988 and 2012 into one of the leading specialty pharmaceutical companies in the world, and brought that same discipline to skincare: a pipeline of proprietary technologies, clinical substantiation of every claim, and distribution only through dermatologists, plastic surgeons and aesthetic practices. Every formula is dermatologist tested and made without parabens, fragrance or dyes.
