Antioxidants and Skincare: 3 Secrets You Need to Know

Antioxidants are one of the most important concepts in skincare, yet they are so often misunderstood. Simply put, antioxidants are powerhouses that protect skin by neutralising free radicals - unstable molecules generated by UV exposure, pollution and everyday environmental stress. By reducing free radical damage, antioxidants help maintain elasticity, prevent premature ageing and support a smoother, more even complexion.

Here are 3 things you need to know about antioxidants and your skincare routine:

1:  Antioxidants protect and repair

They neutralise free radicals before they can damage skin cells or break down collagen. Using antioxidants in the morning helps protect against environmental stressors, while using them at night supports repair and regeneration.

Choosing antioxidants that are gentle, non-invasive and calming allows for daily use without irritation.

3: Antioxidants complement hydration and barrier support

Antioxidants work best when paired with products that lock in moisture and support the skin barrier. The Super Hydration Serum and Barrier Balance Cream combine multi-molecular hyaluronic acid, niacinamide and SL8™ to boost hydration, smooth texture and protect against environmental stressors.
