【Product Overview】
SUITABLE FOR RECURRENT BLEMISHES AND SKIN PRONE TO MARKS

Powered by New Zealand Totarol, o-Cymen-5-ol, and Pionin, this formula targets acne-causing bacteria and blocks sebum oxidation. White Willow Bark unclogs pores, while Helichrysum and Saffron visibly reduce redness and prevent post-acne marks.

Formulated with a comprehensive acne-fighting complex, this serum does not rely on a single active ingredient. Instead, it targets every stage of the acne cycle &mdash from excess sebum, oxidation and clogged pores to bacterial growth, inflammation and post-acne marks. Each step is supported by carefully selected, effective yet gentle ingredients to help address acne at its source. It curbs recurrent blemishes for clear, spot-free skin. It is acid-free and suitable for sensitive, acne-prone skin.

【What is Totarol?】
Totarol is extracted from the heartwood of Podocarpus Totara, a tree species unique to New Zealand. It is known for its powerful antioxidant and antibacterial properties, helping protect sebum from oxidation and inhibit acne bacteria, including Cutibacterium acnes and Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

According to experimental data:
✔️ 98.9% antibacterial activity against Cutibacterium acnes at just 50 ppm
✔️ Approximately 10,000 times stronger antibacterial activity than Tea Tree Oil
✔️ 3 times the antioxidant activity of Vitamin E, helping to reduce sebum oxidation and prevent clogged pores

【100% Sustainably Sourced】
Totarol is sustainably extracted from the heartwood of naturally fallen and dead Totara trees.. No living trees are cut down, allowing this valuable active ingredient to be obtained through a natural and sustainable process.

【Ingredient Analysis】
This serum targets oily, acne-prone skin through six key actions: Oil Control, Antioxidant Protection, Pore Care, Antibacterial Care, Soothing and Blemish Mark Care.

1. Reduce Excess Sebum & Control Oil Production
  • Zinc Oxide: A classic oil-control ingredient. Its fine particles can absorb excess oil on the skin's surface, helping to provide an immediate matte and fresh finish. It may also help inhibit 5α-reductase activity, helping to regulate excessive sebum production.
  • Aspalathus Linearis Extract: Rich in antioxidant polyphenols, it may help inhibit 5α-reductase activity, reducing the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and helping to regulate sebum production.
  • Sophora Angustifolia Root Extract & Salvia Miltiorrhiza Extract: May also help inhibit 5α-reductase activity, supporting the regulation of androgen-related signals and helping to reduce excessive sebum production.
2. Prevent Squalene Oxidation
  • Totarol: A powerful lipophilic antioxidant with 3 times greater anti-lipid oxidation activity than Vitamin E, helping to protect squalene in sebum from oxidation and reduce the formation of inflammatory compounds, thereby helping to minimise skin inflammation and clogged pores.
  • o-Cymen-5-ol: With a phenolic structure and antioxidant properties, it helps neutralise free radicals and reduce sebum oxidation.
  • Aspalathus Linearis Extract: Rich in plant polyphenols, it helps inhibit sebum oxidation and reduce dullness.
3. Unclog Pores
  • White Willow Bark Extract
    • Rich in natural salicin, which can be converted into salicylic acid in the skin. Its gentle exfoliating properties help soften and remove dead skin cells and excess keratin, helping to clear whiteheads, blackheads and clogged pores.
    • Unlike salicylic acid, White Willow Bark Extract is a gentler plant-derived ingredient that helps exfoliate without drying the skin, making it suitable for daily use on sensitive, acne-prone skin.
4. Fight Acne-Causing Bacteria
Powered by 3 key antibacterial ingredients, working in 3 steps to target acne-causing bacteria.
  • Step 1: Break In|Destroy the Bacterial Membrane
    • Pionin: Carries a positive charge, while bacterial cell membranes are typically electronegative. Through electrostatic attraction, Pionin quickly binds to the bacterial cell membrane and destroys its structure.
  • Step 2: Cut Off Energy|Stop Bacterial Activity
    • Totarol: Enters bacterial cells and interferes with the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), effectively cutting off their energy supply. Without sufficient energy, bacterial metabolic activity is disrupted, causing them to gradually lose activity and die.
  • Step 3: Clear Out|Reduce Residual Bacterial Activity
    • o-Cymen-5-ol: Helps deactivate residual bacterial proteins and reduce inflammation. It also helps protect squalene in sebum from oxidation, helping to prevent the regrowth of acne-causing bacteria.
5. Reduce Inflammation
  • White Willow Bark Extract: Rich in natural salicin, it helps soothe inflammation and reduce redness, swelling and discomfort.
  • Zinc Oxide: Helps soothe and calm the skin, while protecting damaged areas and reducing inflammation.
  • Botanical Complex (Helichrysum, Saffron, Scutellaria Baicalensis, Salvia Miltiorrhiza, Sophora Angustifolia & Phellodendron): A blend of botanical extracts that helps calm inflammation, reduce skin redness and swelling.
6. Reduce Redness & Prevent Dark Spots
  • Fade Red Spots
    • Helichrysum Italicum Extract: Rich in diketones, it helps support microcirculation, reduce redness and swelling, and soothe the skin after inflammation.
    • Saffron Extract: A botanical extract with soothing and anti-inflammatory properties that helps calm inflammation and reduce redness.
    • Salvia Miltiorrhiza Extract: Helps support microcirculation, reduce redness and swelling, and promote skin repair.

  • Prevent Dark Spots
    • Scutellaria Baicalensis Extract: Helps inhibit tyrosinase activity, supporting the reduction of melanin production.
    • Turmeric Root & Kaempferia Galanga Root Extracts: Rich in antioxidants, they help neutralise free radicals and reduce oxidative stress associated with UV exposure and inflammation, helping to prevent post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
    • Vitamin B5 & Tremella Fuciformis Extract: Help replenish moisture and support skin repair, maintaining a healthy skin environment and helping to prevent uneven pigmentation.
