This is the Zetto Radical Night Repair. This is Zetto's most potent retinol within their range. It's a one percent retinol. So it's really suitable for users who have been using low percentage like zero point three or zero point five, I want to kinda take things to the next level.

I found it to be really helpful for hyperpigmentation, but some users, apply it just to help with fine lines and wrinkles and have had great results.

So what makes this different? First, it's backed by Z core complex, which supports skin structure and helps to maintain firmness over time.

Then you've got vitamin c and e, powerful antioxidants that protect against environmental damage, and plant stem cells that provide extra defense against oxidative stress. To start off with, I'd recommend applying this just once a week. And if your skin's okay with it, you can increase to twice a week. You will notice some flaking most likely because it's a one percent. So it's super important you continue to apply a good quality SPF to protect your skin from the UV rays.

There are some users of the daily power defense who feel like, especially for the evening, they like something a bit thicker.

And I often recommend the ZEDO, growth factor serum.

This serum contains a blend of potent growth factors manufactured by ZEDO.

And, this has a thicker texture.

Some users feel like it's somewhat more moisturizing and I think goes really well as a evening nighttime cream. Ingredients include neuropeptides, which help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and promote a firmer complexion.

Amino acids and glycerin provide long lasting hydration and help maintain the skin barrier, ensuring balanced moisture levels. Antioxidants, which help defend against environmental stresses.

What makes this serum unique is the lightweight non greasy texture. It absorbs quickly making it easy to lay with other skin care products.

Hyperpigmentation is a very common skin condition we see in our clinic. It can often be caused by inflammatory, acne scarring, melasma or due to hormonal changes.

And there are different ways in which we can manage hyperpigmentation including lasers.

However, in terms of skin care, there are a couple of options. One option is, applying hydroquinone, which is a prescription drug. But under understandably, many patients prefer to have a non prescription product. And the Intellibright Complex by Illumia, I think works, Olumia IntelliBright Complex include arbutin and licorice root extract.

These are naturally derived skin brightness that help reduce the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation.

Kojic acid, this is a very well researched ingredient that helps to even out skin tone.

Lactic acid, which I'm sure you may have heard of before, which gently exfoliates to improve skin texture and enhance radiance.

And Emblika, a powerful antioxidant that helps protect the skin from environmental damage and prevents further pigmentation.

Unlike some brightening treatments, which can be harsh or irritating, the IntelliBright complex works gradually, improving skin clarity while maintaining skin health.
