The Science of Smart Ageing

The Elucent Age Defying range is powered by AHAs – glycolic acid and lactic acid – alongside niacinamide, creating a one-size-fits-most solution for visible ageing skin concerns. AHAs work through chemical exfoliation, gently encouraging cell turnover to smooth skin texture and reduce dullness.

Glycolic Acid

The smallest AHA molecule, penetrates deeply to exfoliate and help visibly improve fine lines, uneven tone and skin clarity.

Lactic Acid

Offers similar resurfacing benefits while also helping hydrate and support the skin barrier – ideal for ageing or sensitive skin.

Niacinamide
Strengthens the skin barrier, helps reduce uneven skin tone and supports smoother, more resilient skin.
Hyaluronic Acid
Draws moisture into the skin, hydrating deeply and improving plumpness for a healthier, glowing complexion.

Brightening, Balanced, Barrier-Smart

The Elucent Bright + Balanced range targets dull skin, visible dark spots and uneven tone using niacinamide, hyaluronic acid and emblica extract.

Formulated to help restore clarity and balance, the Elucent Bright + Balanced range centres on niacinamide to visibly brighten dull skin, address uneven tone, and support the skin barrier for healthy-looking skin overall.

Niacinamide

Helps reduce the appearance of pigmentation, refine the look of pores, and support the skin barrier, improving overall skin tone, texture and clarity while helping the skin maintain hydration.

Hyaluronic Acid

Hydrates skin, improving smoothness and glow without heaviness. It works by attracting and holding moisture at the skin’s surface, helping skin to be plumper, softer and more supple.

Emblica Extract

A powerful antioxidant, helps defend against environmental stressors while supporting a brighter, more even-looking complexion.

Together, these ingredients help to smooth skin texture, reduce uneven skin tone and restore clarity – gentle.
