Skinceuticals CE Ferulic Serum 30mls
CE Ferulic Serum - Diane Nivern's ALL time favourite skincare product!
- THE original and best Vitamin C Serum
- Delivers an unprecedented 8 times the skin's natural protection against UV & HEVL sun damage / light damage
- Neutralises free radicals that break down collagen and accelerate skin ageing
- Helps build new collagen
- Provides unmatched antioxidant protection
- Helps inhibit cellular changes that can contribute to skin cancer
More protection means more youthful looking skin and better defence against environmental ageing.
"If you only buy one serious piece of skincare make it CE Ferulic - I personally recommend this product" - Diane Nivern
Peer Review Clinical Trials and Research shows:
Sunscreens only block 45-55% of free radicals, leaving skin vulnerable to environmental damage
C E Ferulic provides 8x UV photo (light) protection and unprecedented anti-ageing benefits
C E Ferulic reduces sunburn cells up to 96% in UV irradiated skin
C E Ferulic prevents thymine dimers- the DNA mutations associated with skin cancer
Benefits
- Maximum anti-ageing results - better than any one antioxidant alone
- Neutralises free radical damage and protects against oxidative stress - the factors that lead to premature ageing, loss of elasticity and hyper-pigmentation
- Once absorbed, can't be washed or rubbed off
Why do I need a vitamin c antioxidant serum?
Think of an apple, cut in half and exposed to the air.
It will quickly go brown and bad.
If you dipped it in lemon juice it wouldn't.
Lemon juice is rich in Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) which prevents oxidation thus stopping the apple from going bad.
Our faces are exposed to air, pollution, UV in day-light (not just sun-shine) and HEVL blue light from phone and computers and our own oxygen waste products from breathing and stress.
All of these factors conspire to turn skin "bad" and speed up our ageing process - think of it as human rust.
Antioxidant serums prevent this from happening.

Skinceuticals Resveratrol BE 30ml
Skinceuticals Resveratrol B E - a powerful antioxidant serum for night use.
Improves skin density - firmness, radiance and elasticity. It also reduces the appearance of skin ageing.
Skin repairs itself at night from external ageing effects of exposure to daylight (UVA/UVB), pollution, air conditioning, computer screens (UV and infrared) and internal ageing factors caused by stress, smoking, alcohol, lack of sleep, exercise and advancing years (oxidative stress) which create free-radical damage to the skin and body.
Free-radicals are de-stabilised molecules which accelerate ageing by creating inflammation and collagen-breakdown.
Resveratrol B E helps target the visible signs of ageing and helps to reinforce skin's natural protection against free radicals.
Powerful, clinically proven concentration of 1% pure, stable Resveratrol
0.5% Baicalin
1% Alpha Tocopherol (Vitamin E)
