Dealing with redness, sensitivity, or breakouts that leave your skin feeling stressed? This unscented serum is your daily rescue.

If your skin often feels irritated, red, or reactive, finding a calming solution that doesn't cause more problems can be frustrating. This serum is designed to break that cycle by focusing on gentle, effective relief.

• Who It's For: Ideal for sensitive, acne-prone, combination, and oily skin types experiencing redness, irritation, or a compromised skin barrier. It's also excellent for anyone whose skin feels stressed from heat, sun exposure, or strong active ingredients.
• What It Does: Rapidly soothes visible redness and calms inflammation from breakouts or sensitivity. It helps repair and strengthen the skin's natural defenses to make it less reactive over time.
• Texture & Finish: A lightweight, watery serum that absorbs instantly without any sticky or greasy residue, leaving skin feeling refreshed and hydrated.
• Key Benefit: Provides immediate comfort to irritated skin while working long-term to build a more resilient, balanced complexion. Being unscented and free of essential oils makes it a safe choice for highly reactive skin.

Integrating this serum into your routine is simple. Its main purpose is to soothe and hydrate before you lock everything in with a moisturiser.

[Dosage]

• Amount: Use 2-3 drops for the entire face. A little goes a long way.
• Frequency: Can be used twice daily, morning (AM) and evening (PM). For very sensitive skin, start with PM use only for the first week to ensure compatibility.

[Application Method]

1. Apply after cleansing and toning, onto skin that is still slightly damp.
2. Dispense the drops into your palm and gently spread over your face and neck.
3. Lightly pat the serum into your skin until fully absorbed. Avoid rubbing.
4. Wait about 30-60 seconds before applying your next product (e.g., moisturiser or sunscreen).

[Pro-Tips for Mauritius]

• Post-Sun Soother: After a day at the beach, this serum is perfect for calming sun-exposed skin before applying your after-sun lotion or moisturiser.
• Buffering Actives: If you use strong ingredients like retinol or exfoliating acids (AHAs/BHAs), apply this serum beforehand to reduce potential irritation and support your skin barrier.

Your morning routine should focus on hydration, antioxidant protection, and sun defense. This serum fits in perfectly to calm any overnight redness and prep your skin for the day.

[Minimalist Morning Routine]

1. Step 1: Cleanse
   Wash your face with a gentle, low-pH cleanser to remove overnight buildup. Pat skin dry.
2. Step 2: Soothe & Hydrate (This Product)
   Apply 2-3 drops of the Wonder Releaf Centella Serum to your face and neck to calm and hydrate.
3. Step 3: Moisturise (Optional)
   If you have dry skin or your sunscreen isn't very hydrating, apply a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturiser. Oily skin types in Mauritius might find the serum and sunscreen provide enough moisture.
4. Step 4: Protect
   Finish with a broad-spectrum sunscreen of at least SPF 30+. This is the most critical step to prevent sun damage and protect the results of your routine.

Your evening routine is the perfect time for repair and nourishment. This serum helps calm any irritation from the day and supports your skin's overnight recovery process.

[Minimalist Evening Routine]

1. Step 1: Double Cleanse
   Start with an oil-based cleanser to melt away sunscreen, makeup, and sebum. Follow with a water-based foam or gel cleanser to wash everything away.
2. Step 2: Soothe & Repair (This Product)
   Apply 2-3 drops of the Wonder Releaf Centella Serum to calm and prepare your skin for other treatments.
3. Step 3: Moisturise
   Apply a moisturiser suitable for your skin type to lock in hydration and support your skin barrier overnight. For very dry or compromised skin, a dedicated barrier cream works well here.

[Adding Other Actives]

• If you use an exfoliating acid (AHA/BHA), apply it after cleansing and before this serum on alternate nights (see Weekly Planner).
• If you use retinol, you can apply this serum either before the retinol (to buffer and reduce irritation) or after (to soothe and hydrate), depending on your skin's tolerance. Do not use retinoids and strong acids on the same night.

This serum is designed for daily use, but here’s how you can schedule it alongside other active ingredients to avoid irritation and maximize results.

[Example Weekly PM Schedule]

• Monday: Exfoliation Night (AHA/BHA after cleansing, followed by this Centella Serum & Moisturiser)
• Tuesday: Recovery Night (This Centella Serum & Moisturiser)
• Wednesday: Retinoid Night (This Centella Serum, followed by Retinol & Moisturiser)
• Thursday: Recovery Night (This Centella Serum & Moisturiser)
• Friday: Exfoliation Night (AHA/BHA after cleansing, followed by this Centella Serum & Moisturiser)
• Saturday: Recovery Night (This Centella Serum & Moisturiser)
• Sunday: Retinoid Night (This Centella Serum, followed by Retinol & Moisturiser)

[Key Principles]

• Daily Use: Use this Centella Serum every morning (AM) and every evening (PM). On nights you use strong actives, it acts as a soothing buffer.
• Alternate Actives: Avoid using strong exfoliants (AHAs/BHAs) and retinoids on the same night to prevent over-stressing your skin barrier.
• Listen to Your Skin: If your skin feels sensitive, skip the actives for a night or two and just use this serum with your moisturiser to focus on recovery.

Skincare is a journey of consistency. While this serum offers immediate comfort, its true barrier-strengthening benefits build over time. Here’s a realistic timeline:

• Immediately: Your skin will feel instantly soothed, hydrated, and refreshed. Any feeling of tightness or heat from irritation may be reduced.
• After 1-2 Weeks: You may notice a visible reduction in daily redness and inflammation. Active breakouts may appear less angry and heal more quickly.
• After 4-8 Weeks: With consistent daily use, your skin's barrier becomes stronger. You may find your skin is less reactive to triggers that previously caused flushing or irritation. The overall texture may appear smoother and more balanced.
• After 3+ Months: Your skin's resilience is significantly improved. You'll likely experience fewer sensitivity flare-ups, and your complexion will look consistently calmer and healthier.

Individual results may vary. Consistent daily use, especially alongside proper sun protection, is key to achieving the best outcomes.

This serum is designed to be a team player in almost any skincare routine. Its gentle, soothing nature makes it compatible with most active ingredients.

[Works Well With ✅]

• Hydrators: Excellent when layered with Hyaluronic Acid, Beta-Glucan, or Snail Mucin to boost hydration and plump the skin.
• Brighteners: Safely pairs with Niacinamide, Vitamin C, Arbutin, and Tranexamic Acid. It can help reduce any potential irritation from high-concentration Vitamin C serums.
• Retinoids (Retinol, Retinal): Highly recommended to use alongside retinoids. Apply this serum before your retinoid to create a soothing buffer, or after to replenish hydration and calm the skin.
• Exfoliating Acids (AHA, BHA, PHA): Use after an acid toner or serum to immediately soothe the skin and support the barrier post-exfoliation.
• Sunscreens: Layers perfectly under any sunscreen without pilling, providing a calm base for sun protection.

[Use with Caution ⚠️]

• There are no significant ingredients that conflict with Centella Asiatica. The main caution is to always introduce new products one at a time and patch-test, especially if you have highly reactive skin.

This serum's unscented, lightweight formula makes it suitable for a wide range of skin types, but it truly excels for those dealing with sensitivity and inflammation.

• Sensitive Skin: ★★★★★ (Excellent)
  This is its primary target. The unscented formula without essential oils, combined with the potent calming properties of Centella Asiatica, makes it a safe and effective choice for easily irritated skin.
• Acne-Prone Skin: ★★★★★ (Excellent)
  Perfect for calming the redness and inflammation associated with breakouts. Its lightweight, non-comedogenic texture won't clog pores, and it helps heal blemishes with less post-inflammatory redness (PIE).
• Oily & Combination Skin: ★★★★★ (Excellent)
  Provides essential hydration without feeling heavy or greasy, helping to balance the skin. It's an ideal serum for managing T-zone redness or irritation on the cheeks.
• Normal Skin: ★★★★☆ (Great)
  A wonderful choice for maintaining a healthy skin barrier and providing antioxidant protection against daily environmental stressors.
• Dry Skin: ★★★★☆ (Great)
  While it provides excellent soothing and light hydration, truly dry skin types will need to layer a richer, more emollient moisturiser on top to adequately lock in moisture and prevent water loss.

This serum is a specialised solution for calming and repairing. It focuses on restoring skin health rather than aggressive treatment.

• Primary Concerns Addressed:
  • Redness & Irritation: Calms flushed, angry-looking skin caused by sensitivity, environmental triggers, or reactions to other products.
  • Compromised Skin Barrier: Helps repair a damaged barrier, reducing symptoms like stinging, tightness, and peeling from over-exfoliation or harsh treatments.
  • Acne-Related Inflammation: Reduces the redness and swelling of active pimples, helping them heal more gently and potentially reducing the chance of scarring.
  • General Sensitivity: Fortifies the skin over time, making it less prone to reacting to daily stressors like heat, pollution, and sun exposure.
• Secondary Benefits:
  • Hydration: Provides a lightweight layer of moisture.
  • Antioxidant Support: Centella Asiatica has antioxidant properties that help protect the skin from free radical damage.

Purito is committed to clean and effective formulations. This serum is built around a high concentration of Centella Asiatica and its key soothing components.

[Key Ingredients Explained]

• Centella Asiatica Extract: The star ingredient, known in Korea as "Cica" or "Tiger Grass." It is rich in compounds that are scientifically recognized for their potent anti-inflammatory, wound-healing, and antioxidant properties. [cite_start]It works by calming the cellular pathways that lead to redness and irritation, helping to restore peace to stressed skin[cite: 3640, 3818].
• Madecassoside & Asiaticoside: These are purified, highly active molecules derived from Centella Asiatica. [cite_start]They are responsible for much of its therapeutic power, including stimulating collagen production to aid in skin repair and significantly reducing inflammation[cite: 3818, 2968].
• Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): A versatile ingredient that supports the skin barrier by boosting ceramide production. [cite_start]It also helps regulate sebum, reduce redness, and fade post-acne marks, making it an excellent partner for Centella[cite: 2783, 2786].
• Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5): A powerful humectant and soothing agent that attracts and holds moisture, while also supporting the skin's natural repair processes. [cite_start]It helps alleviate the tight, uncomfortable feeling of a damaged barrier[cite: 2795, 2997].

[Full INCI List]

Based on the "Unscented" version of Purito's Centella Serum, the ingredient list is expected to be similar to the following representative formula:

Centella Asiatica Extract, Water, Glycerin, Dipropylene Glycol, Niacinamide, Butylene Glycol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Glycereth-26, Madecassoside, Asiaticoside, Asiatic Acid, Madecassic Acid, Panthenol, Sodium Hyaluronate, Portulaca Oleracea Extract, Carbomer, Arginine, Allantoin, Betaine, Ethylhexylglycerin, Disodium EDTA.

• Fragrance: This product is officially Unscented. It is formulated without any synthetic fragrances or essential oils, making it an ideal choice for individuals with fragrance sensitivities or highly reactive skin.
  • Scent Profile: None. Any faint smell is naturally occurring from the botanical extracts themselves and dissipates quickly.
  • Intensity: 0/5
• EU Allergens: None are declared by the brand in this unscented formulation. This significantly reduces the risk of allergic contact dermatitis for sensitive users.
• Other Potential Irritants: This formula is free from common irritants such as drying alcohols (ethanol, denatured alcohol), and artificial colourants. Its minimalist approach is designed to be as gentle as possible.

Even with gentle formulas, patch testing is always recommended for highly sensitive individuals (see Full Safety & Patch Test Protocol).

This serum is formulated for high tolerance, but responsible use is key for skin health.

[General Safety]

• For external use only.
• Avoid direct contact with eyes. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
• Do not apply to broken, wounded, or eczematous skin unless advised by a dermatologist.
• Keep out of reach of children.

[Who Should Use With Caution?]

• Pregnancy & Breastfeeding: Centella Asiatica is generally considered safe for topical use during pregnancy, but it's always best to consult with your doctor before introducing any new product.
• Specific Plant Allergies: While rare, individuals with a known allergy to Centella Asiatica or other plants in the formula should avoid use.

[Patch Test Protocol for Sensitive Skin]

Before using a new product on your face for the first time, perform a patch test to check for any adverse reactions.

1. Apply: Dispense a small (pea-sized) amount of the serum onto a clean, discreet patch of skin, such as behind your ear or on your inner elbow.
2. Wait: Leave the area dry and do not wash for at least 24 hours.
3. Observe: Check the area at 24, 48, and 72 hours for any signs of irritation, such as redness, itching, swelling, or rash.
4. Action: If any irritation occurs, discontinue use immediately. If no reaction is observed, the product is likely safe to apply to your face.

This serum's formulation is exceptionally well-suited for the hot, humid, and high-UV conditions in Mauritius.

• For Humid Summers: Its lightweight, watery texture provides essential hydration and calming benefits without feeling heavy, sticky, or occlusive. It absorbs quickly, leaving a fresh finish that won't feel greasy even in high humidity. For very oily skin types, this serum layered under a gel-based sunscreen might be all the daytime moisture you need.
• For Drier Winters & Air-Conditioning: While still lightweight, it provides a crucial layer of soothing hydration that helps counteract the drying effects of "winter" air or constant air-conditioning. It helps prevent the tightness and dehydration that can occur when moving between humid outdoors and dry indoor environments.
• Post-Sun & Beach Care: This is an ideal serum to use after a day outdoors. Sun, salt, and wind can leave the skin feeling sensitised and red. Applying this serum after cleansing helps to immediately calm inflammation, reduce redness, and begin the skin repair process.
