Is this for you?
This is ideal if you:
- Spend time outdoors year-round
- Want a preventive antioxidant step in your routine
- Already use SPF and want to add antioxidant support
- Prefer well-researched ingredients over trendy actives
Not ideal if you:
- Want a visible, immediate brightening serum
- Are looking for a vitamin C alternative (this complements rather than replaces)
- Want a leave-on retinol serum
Why this formula works
EGCG antioxidant support
Standardized 45% EGCG — one of the most-studied topical antioxidants for neutralizing free radicals from everyday environmental stress.
Pairs with your SPF
An antioxidant step that complements daily sunscreen — it adds free-radical support but doesn't replace SPF.
Ferulic acid synergy
Stabilizes EGCG and adds its own antioxidant activity, so the formula stays effective through the life of the bottle.
How to use
Morning Routine
Apply to clean skin in the morning before moisturizer and SPF. This is a quiet, long-game step rather than something you'll see overnight.
