Cruelty Free Serums?
Adding a serum (or two!) to your routine is a great idea, but it can also be hard to know where to start.

Super Power Serum | Vitamin C & Retinol
Not suitable for use during pregnancy
The Super Power Serum is the triple threat blend of retinol serum, vitamin C and hyaluronic acid.
When you combine the brightening power of vitamin C, the hydration power of hyaluronic acid and the plumping power of retinol - Super Power Serum is a serious powerhouse.
Using vitamin C with retinol is not recommended for sensitive skin types and even some balanced skin might find the formulation irritating, so unless you've been around the serum block a few times we recommend you start with the 5ml size.
For more info about our cruelty free serums please check out the Serum Starter Guide here.
Available in three sizes;
- 5ml
- 30ml

How to use Super Power Serum
The combination of vitamin C and retinol is not recommended for sensitive skin, and may not be suitable for your skin type even if you generally don't react to products - please start with a 5ml test size unless you're a seasoned pro.
When you start using the Super Power Serum apply it between two layers of moisturiser or night cream. Use a cleanser, then a toner (or skin drink), add moisturiser as a buffer, apply the serum and then add more moisturiser.
Protect the delicate eye area by using an eye cream before applying any retinol serum, and (unlike hyaluronic acid) apply the Super Power Serum to a dry face.
Start by using the Super Power Serum once a week for the first week, then twice a week for the second week then three times a week for the third week.
Discontinue use if redness or irritation occurs and ensure you are using a sunscreen during the day.
If using a pea size amount of Refining Serum three times a week, you can expect (approximately);
- Three weeks of use from a 5ml tester
- Five months of use from a 30ml bottle
If you're a daily user, you can expect (approximately);
- 10 days of use from a 5ml tester
- 60 days or two months of use from a 30ml bottle
