For the first time in a decade, skoah is launching a brand new serum in our line. The NEW Illuminate serum is formulated with a blend of powerful skin repairing and brightening ingredients to tackle hyperpigmentation, sun-damage, acne scarring, and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Get to know the stars of the Illuminate serum ⭐
Tranexamic acid
Tranexamic acid is a powerhouse skin brightening ingredient that works by blocking the transfer of pigment in skin. This is a must-have for whatever discolouration you may be experiencing with your skin - be it hyperpigmentation, acne scars, splotchy and uneven complexion or melasma.
Arbutin
Wanting to add some luminosity to your skin? Arbutin is bound to give you that brightened glow without drying out and irritating the skin (unlike some other skin lightening ingredients)! This potent ingredient is super gentle - perfect for sensitive skin, has sun protection properties and is especially great at fading those pesky red acne scars.
Niacinamide
We all know and love Niacinamide, but did you know that other than providing great skin brightening and anti-aging benefits, Niacinamide is also used to increase skin immunity? This well-rounded skincare ingredient builds keratin, a protein that keeps your skin plump and healthy while also helping to build a strong skin barrier which improves the overall functioning of the skin (AKA moisture retention, fine lines and wrinkles, dullness, acne and blemishes).
Licorice Extract
Unlike the candy we all love to hate, Licorice Extract is a skin brightening ingredient that we all love to love! Other than being great at combating discolouration and evening out skin tone, this ingredient also has anti-inflammatory benefits which is perfect for those in the thick of a flare up that needs to both soothe irritated skin while also preventing new spots from forming (and fading existing ones).
Matrixyl Morphomics ®
If you’re not already convinced that peptides can level up your skincare game, Matrixyl Morphomics offers stellar anti-aging and skin repairing benefits. This ingredient will add firmness and elasticity to your skin, giving that plump, youthful appearance.
Who should use this serum
This serum is suitable for all skin types, including those with sensitive skin. The Illuminate serum will especially be effective for those looking to tackle hyperpigmentation, melasma, acne scarring, sun damage or general brightening of skin.
How to use this serum
Apply twice daily morning and night, after toning and before moisturizing. Work 1-2 pumps of product into the skin skin with gentle tapping motions. For daytime use, make sure to finish with SPF to protect your skin.
