Lightens skin and reduces pigmentation.

Inhibits tyrosinase and has a more potent effect than traditional brightening agents and your skin gets maximum results with a much lower risk of redness, burning, or peeling.

Acetyl glucosamine is a building block of hyaluronic acid that the skin recognises as its own. It hydrates by holding moisture in the upper layers, encourages gentle surface renewal, and inhibits melanin production at an earlier stage than most brighteners. When paired with vitamin C, the combined effect on dark spots is significantly stronger than either alone.

In our Illuminator Serum, acetyl glucosamine multiplies the effect of the Vitamin C Complex on hyperpigmentation. It also adds a hydration layer to a formula that's actives-heavy — keeping the serum comfortable on reactive skin.

Allantoin is a gentle emollient with a long history in dermatology — it's been used to treat rashes, burns, and scar tissue for decades. It moisturises, reduces itching, protects against irritation, and accelerates surface cell turnover at low concentrations.

Allantoin appears in nearly every formula in our range because it does one job exceptionally well: it makes everything else more tolerable. For reactive skin, that's not a luxury — it's the difference between using the product and giving up on it.

Aloe vera is famed for its healing and anti-inflammatory properties, but it also promotes collagen production to help skin retain elasticity and minimise wrinkles. Anti-septic agents found in Aloe Vera inhibit bacteria, making it a helpful recovery aid.

It provides an irritation-free, hypoallergenic shield that allows your skin to recover its bounce and elasticity without a single sign of irritation.

Ceramides make up about 50% of the skin's barrier lipids. When the barrier is compromised — through eczema, over-exfoliation, or harsh products — ceramide levels drop, and skin loses moisture rapidly while becoming more reactive to everything. Topical ceramides 1+3 replenish those lipids directly, restoring barrier function.

Reactive skin almost always has a compromised barrier. Ceramides 1+3 are the single most effective topical we know for repairing that barrier — and they appear in nearly every Therapeautic formula because of it.

Helps calm visible redness and reduce melasma and sun-induced discoloration. By interrupting pigment signaling in the skin, it diminishes dark patches while supporting a more uniform tone.

It inhibits transfer of melanin to skin cells and has anti-inflammatory properties. Cetyl Tranexamate Mesylate mimics skin lipids. This allows it to easily enter the skin barrier and steadily release the active compound deeper into the layers where discoloration is formed.

It's the foundation of our Hydration Line and works hard inside our Anti-Ageing formulations too.

Oligopeptides are short chains of amino acids — the same building blocks that make up the proteins in your skin. Applied topically, they act as signalling molecules: small enough to penetrate the upper skin layers, where they prompt fibroblasts to produce more collagen and elastin. Different peptide sequences trigger different responses. Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5, the form used in our Rejuvenator formulas, is specifically studied for stimulating collagen synthesis and improving the appearance of fine lines without the irritation associated with stronger anti-ageing actives.

Retinol is famous for causing redness, peeling, and dryness because it thins the very top layer of dead skin. Oligopeptides actively counteract this by reinforcing the skin barrier, boosting deep cellular hydration, and lowering inflammation. They act as a soothing safety net, allowing you to get all the high-potency benefits of Retinol with minimal down-time.
