Symbiosis Delight Radiance Restoring Facial Serum
Works for
Anti-agingNiacinamide, Zinc gluconateWorks well
“Designed to brighten and tone your skin whilst providing key nourishment and anti-aging benefits, Symbiosis Delight Radiance Restoring Facial Serum is packed with revolutionary ingredients contributing to smoothing and evening skin tone.”
This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains niacinamide.
Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed to improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can “erase” wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.
MoisturizingPanthenol, Niacinamide + 9 moreWorks well
“Hyaluronic Acid penetrates deep into the skin, working to hydrate and instantly help improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and sagging skin.”
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": glycerin, hydrolyzed yeast extract.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from within deeper layers of the skin. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: niacinamide, panthenol
Evens skin toneNiacinamide, Hydrolyzed yeast extract + 1 moreWorks well
“Designed to brighten and tone your skin whilst providing key nourishment and anti-aging benefits, Symbiosis Delight Radiance Restoring Facial Serum is packed with revolutionary ingredients contributing to smoothing and evening skin tone.”
This product can help reduce hypepigmentation and even out the skin tone because it contains the following effective ingredients: niacinamide
Keep in mind that you would need to apply any topical skincare targetted at hypigmentation consistently for a couple of months to get a result. No topical skincare product can help get rid of hyperpigmentation (including post-acne marks and age spots) instantly.
ExfoliationZinc gluconateNot delivered
“Niacinamide aims to visibly improve the appearance of enlarged pores, uneven skin tone, fine lines, dullness and weakened skin surface.”
This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.
Anti-blemishSide benefit · Niacinamide, Zinc gluconateWorks well
