The Research

Oxidative stress occurs in skin when the amount of free radicals outnumbers the naturally occurring antioxidants found within our skin. This results in hyperpigmentation, premature ageing, dullness, rough texture, and inflammation.

Research shows that a slow release of Vitamin C elevates rejuvenating effects over prolonged periods of time. Vitamin C neutralises free radicals and prevents oxidation to brighten an uneven skin tone. In addition, Vitamin C plays an important role in regulating the supraduction of pigment. Pre-existing pigment is reduced and an even complexion is revealed.

Does this mask treatment replace #1 The Mask or #5 The Mask?  
Plus
Minus

As part of The Vitality Collection, #2 The Mask is designed to work differently to these Formulations. With a proprietary Complex of nourishing Antioxidants, it’s designed to re-energise, elicit an even tone and a brighter complexion.
