Product Description
Product Description:
Clear breakouts while addressing early signs of aging with a multi-layered retinoid serum created specifically for acne-prone, aging skin.
Face Reality Age Adaptive Clearing Serum is a clinically tested, multi-layered treatment designed for adults who want to maintain clear skin while targeting fine lines, wrinkles, uneven texture, and early signs of aging. Powered by Face Reality's proprietary Beta-ret (β-ret) Technology™, the formula takes a three-level approach to active maintenance: refining at the skin's surface, clearing within the pore, and supporting visible renewal over time.
At the pore level, 2% Salicylic Acid helps maintain clear skin by exfoliating inside clogged pores and addressing acne. At the surface, Mandelic and Lactic Acids provide gentle AHA exfoliation to promote smoother, more refined-looking skin. The formula's next-generation retinoid helps target early signs of aging and supports continued skin renewal.
Designed to be gentler and less irritating than traditional retinoids, Age Adaptive Clearing Serum offers a unique solution for acne-prone adults whose skincare needs are evolving. Rather than choosing between an acne treatment and an age-supporting serum, this formula helps address both concerns as one active maintenance step.
Available exclusively through a Face Reality Certified Skincare Professional and not sold online.
