Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) 5%

Niacinamide, also known as Vitamin B3, is a versatile and highly beneficial ingredient included in the Lacus Temporis Pro Collagen Serum, offering a wide range of skincare advantages. Renowned for its ability to strengthen the skin’s barrier, niacinamide helps improve moisture retention, ensuring the skin remains hydrated, smooth, and resilient. This is particularly important for maintaining a youthful complexion, as well-hydrated skin is less prone to fine lines and wrinkles.

Niacinamide is also celebrated for its anti-inflammatory properties, making it effective in soothing irritation, reducing redness, and calming breakouts. It helps regulate oil production, which is beneficial for those with oily or acne-prone skin, and can improve the appearance of pores by tightening and refining their size.

Furthermore, niacinamide is a powerful brightening agent, helping to reduce the appearance of dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone. It works to enhance the skin’s overall clarity, leaving the complexion more radiant and balanced. In the Lacus Temporis Pro Collagen Serum, niacinamide complements other active ingredients to promote firmer, smoother, and healthier-looking skin, while also providing antioxidant protection against environmental stressors that can cause premature ageing.

Tranexamic Acid 3%

Tranexamic Acid is a highly effective ingredient in the Lacus Temporis Pro Collagen Serum, known for its powerful skin-brightening and anti-inflammatory properties. Originally used in medicine to reduce bleeding, it has become a celebrated skincare ingredient for its ability to target hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone. By inhibiting the production of melanin, Tranexamic Acid helps to reduce the appearance of discolouration and promotes a more even, luminous complexion.

In addition to its brightening benefits, Tranexamic Acid also has calming properties that help to soothe inflamed or irritated skin, making it ideal for individuals with sensitive or redness-prone complexions. It is especially beneficial for those suffering from post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, as it helps to fade dark spots left by acne or other skin conditions.

In the Lacus Temporis Pro Collagen Serum, Tranexamic Acid works synergistically with other active ingredients to improve skin texture, reduce the visibility of fine lines, and enhance overall radiance. Its gentle yet effective nature makes it suitable for daily use, offering visible improvements in skin clarity and brightness while supporting the serum’s collagen-boosting and anti-ageing properties.

Saccharomyces/Barley Seed Ferment Filtrate

Saccharomyces/Barley Seed Ferment Filtrate is a powerful and innovative ingredient in the Lacus Temporis Pro Collagen Serum, offering advanced benefits for skin health and vitality. This ferment filtrate is derived from the fermentation of barley seeds using Saccharomyces yeast, resulting in a nutrient-rich extract that enhances the skin’s natural ability to retain moisture and boosts overall skin resilience.

One of its key benefits is its ability to improve the skin’s hydration levels, ensuring that the skin remains plump, smooth, and youthful. By promoting long-lasting moisture retention, it helps to minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, while supporting the skin’s natural barrier function. The fermentation process also enhances the bioavailability of essential nutrients, allowing the skin to absorb and utilise these nutrients more effectively for optimal results.

In addition, Saccharomyces/Barley Seed Ferment Filtrate is rich in antioxidants, which protect the skin from free radicals and environmental stressors, helping to prevent premature ageing. Its soothing properties make it ideal for sensitive skin, while its ability to balance and strengthen the skin’s microbiome promotes a healthy, radiant complexion. In the Pro Collagen Serum, this ingredient plays a crucial role in supporting collagen production, firming the skin, and promoting a more youthful, glowing appearance.

Hyaluronic Acid

In the Pro Collagen Serum, Hyaluronic Acid works to deeply hydrate the skin, which in turn reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by improving skin elasticity and firmness. Well-hydrated skin is more resilient, smoother, and has a naturally healthy glow. This intense hydration also helps to reinforce the skin’s natural barrier, protecting it from external stressors and preventing moisture loss.

In addition to its hydrating capabilities, Hyaluronic Acid is non-comedogenic, meaning it won’t clog pores, making it suitable for all skin types, including oily and acne-prone skin. Its lightweight and fast-absorbing nature ensures that the serum feels comfortable on the skin, leaving it feeling refreshed and revitalised. In the Lacus Temporis Pro Collagen Serum, Hyaluronic Acid plays a critical role in enhancing the skin’s moisture levels, boosting collagen production, and promoting a youthful, radiant appearance.
