What it is and what it does
The Story
A revitalising hydrator for evening.

As a feeling of intense hydration is delivered, skin appears refined and replenished for a more radiant complexion by morning.
The Promise

• Alleviates the appearance of redness
• Restores an even tone to lacklustre skin
The Ritual
Smooth gently over face, neck, décolletage and backs of hands each evening.
Follow with your RATIONALE Essential Six formulations for night.
The Research
Acidic skin pH plays a critical role in optimising cellular differentiation (cellular function), desquamation (cell turnover) and the synthesis of vital skin lipids.
Environmental skin damage caused by the sun, pollution and temperature extremes results in skin pH shifting from acidic to alkaline. This can cause the downregulation of enzymes vital to barrier lipid synthesis and connective tissue regeneration (collagen and elastin).
The outcome of this is the typical pathology of premature ageing, including dryness, sensitivity, pigmentation and skin laxness.
Topical application of hydroxy acids can recalibrate skin pH back to a desirable acidic levels, refining texture, smoothness, hydration, tone and clarity.
