Protecting

Hydrating

Evens tone

Works on pigmentation

AM/PM - After cleansing, apply 1 pump to hands and press lightly into face and neck avoiding the eye area. Wait a few minutes before applying other serums then finish with moisturiser.

Use daily, morning and night for radiant, even skin that’s shielded from environmental damage.

Key Ingredients

Ascorbic Acid

A potent form of vitamin C with superior antioxidant benefits, it supports natural pigmentation, even skin tone and brighten skin. It also helps improve the appearance of skin elasticity and texture, and provides healthy ageing benefits by neutralising free radicals and nourishing collagen synthesis.

Tocopherol

One of the most powerful antioxidants, it works to deliver long-lasting moisture, and help support and nourish skin. It also helps soothe irritation and is an important nutrient for healthy skin metabolism. It provides significant photo-protection against UVB rays and when combined with Vitamin C, it delivers incredible skin results.

Ferulic Acid

Working best with Vitamins C and E, this antioxidant helps support a cellular response to the damaging effects of exposure to pollution, ultraviolet light and other environmental aggressors. It can help decrease the appearance of uneven skin tone and dark spots, support a healthy pigmentation response and reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles.

Hippophae Rhamnoides Seed Oil

Extracted from the pulp of the sea buckthorn berry, it contains powerful antioxidant vitamin E and is rich in beta-carotenes, rare fatty acid omega-7, omega-3 and omega-6, to moisturise and soothe skin to leave it healthy and glowing. It provides nutrition for healthy skin and ageing.

Ectoin

Discovered in halophilic bacteria that survive and thrive in extreme conditions when exposed to UV, dryness and extreme temperatures, it helps support skin from environmental stressors, like pollution, temperature, sunlight and blue light exposure. It also provides long-term moisturising benefits and conditions skin.

Astaxanthin

A naturally occurring ketocarotenoid and antioxidant that’s been found to be 65 times more potent than vitamin C and 50 times higher than vitamin E, it helps moisturise and supports a cellular response to free radicals, including UV rays, while supporting a healthy cellular response to DNA repair, which helps reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation. With its calming and soothing properties, it also helps support skin barrier function, calm sensitive skin and redness.

Glycerin

A natural humectant, it is an incredible moisturising and skin-replenishing ingredient as it helps attract moisture from the air and deliver it deep into the lower layers of the skin to the epidermis. It leaves skin moist, bouncy and dewy, and also helps maintain skin health when using active or drying products. Our Glycerin is Palm-Free.

Sodium Hyaluronate

The salt form of Hyaluronic Acid, it has skin-replenishing and hydrating benefits to tackle dryness, keep skin soft, and help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It works to replenish lost moisture and hold onto it, and can hold almost 1000 times its weight in water to leave skin hydrated and plump.

Haematococcus Pluvialis (Microalgae) Extract

A microalgae that’s rich in the powerful antioxidant Astaxanthin, it has anti-ageing and skin soothing benefits to calm skin. It also works to protect skin from photodamage.

Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf Extract

A natural ingredient rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Its moisturising properties help to nourish and hydrate the nails, reducing dryness and brittleness. It also has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties which help to prevent infections and soothe irritation, promoting overall nail health.

Give it a try

My skin has become dry as I am getting older. This, along with the vitamin e serum works really effectively to hydrate and brighten. My forehead wrinkles whilst still there are far less prominent and overall my skin looks refreshed and I feel good about it! I got two of the KB serums for Christmas and usually have quite sensitive skin. I am converted to these products- no itchy rashes and they do what they say- I initially integrated them into what I was using and now am solely using the KB skincare serums. I only wish I had photos to show how great my skin has become!

VITAMIN C Serum

Love this lightweight serum for daytime use when I'm not cycling. Provides a brightening yet soothing base for moisturiser and sunscreen. Layer my SPF BB cream over this for a photo finish.
