“A bestselling body serum clinically proven to boost firmness and elasticity. The formula is powered by a biomimetic peptide-sapphire complex that supports tripeptide-28 stability and delivery to stimulate dermal metabolism and collagen production. Paracress extract reinforces dermal architecture, while antioxidant green coffee oil and plant-derived squalane nourish and hydrate. Inulin functions as a prebiotic to support the skin’s microbiome and barrier.

Shea butter, murumuru seed butter and capuacu seed butter deliver rich emollient hydration, alongside caffeine which supports microcirculation and surface tone.

“A fragrance-free body lotion formulated with 0.1% pure retinol to stimulate cell turnover, improve uneven skin tone and support a firmer-looking surface from the neck down.
