Rich in Antioxidants and Chlorophyll, matcha is shade grown--a process which increases the chlorophyll content in the leaves. Chlorophyll helps to release heavy metals and chemical toxins from the skin. This serum is made from the youngest, tenderest leaves, which contain the highest levels of
amino acids. Matcha green tea contains catechins that are potent antioxidants that prevent free radical activity. This serum also boasts antimicrobial characteristics, and helps to promote circulation. Great for all skin types.
Hyaluronic acid is a famous active known for its ability to hold over 1,000 times its weight in water. This ability makes it one of the best hydrators a person could turn to. Hyaluronic acid also protects skin, while allowing it to breathe. It causes skin to appear more plump, fills in fine lines,
and dries quickly without leaving a sticky residue on the skin.
Combining 2 of the best ingredients for the skin, this HA serum has a slight sticky base which gets absorbed into the skin within a few minutes.
On optimal skin condition, this serum helps to maintain the hydration level well, leaving my skin flake-free. On dehydrated skin, this serum is not hydrating enough to improve the flaky condition.
I like that it contains anti-oxidant benefits in this tiny bottle for daily maintenance but its not so perfect in emergency cases when I needed to quench the thirst on parched skin.
It comes in a squeeze nozzle that dispenses the gel-like contents easily and I used it up in less than 3 months, with a daily usage in the morning, just before my moisturiser.
