Losing that youthful bounce and glow can feel discouraging. This revitalizing serum is designed for skin showing early signs of aging, such as loss of firmness, fine lines, and dullness. Its unique double-layer formula provides a powerful blend of nutrients to help restore elasticity and a healthy, luminous complexion.

• Texture: A lightweight, watery oil that feels nourishing but absorbs quickly.
• Scent: A subtle, elegant floral-citrus scent.
• Key Function: Improves skin elasticity, provides deep nourishment, and boosts radiance.
• Best For: Normal, Combination, Dry, and Mature skin types concerned with firmness and glow.

1. Cleanser: Wash your face to create a clean base.
2. THIS PRODUCT: Shake the bottle 3-5 times to mix the layers. Dispense 2-3 drops and gently pat onto your face and neck.
3. Sunscreen (AM) / Moisturiser (PM): Apply sunscreen to protect your results in the morning, or a moisturiser at night to seal in the goodness.

Note: Already own a similar serum? Finish that first to be mindful of consumption (substitute, don’t stack).

• Minimalist (3 steps): 1) Cleanser → 2) d'Alba Revitalizing Serum → 3) Sunscreen (SPF 30+).
• Optional: Add a hydrating toner before the serum for extra slip and hydration. If your sunscreen isn't moisturising enough, you can apply a light moisturiser before your SPF.
• Wait Times: Allow 30-60 seconds for the serum to absorb before applying your next step. Wait 1-2 minutes before applying sunscreen or makeup to prevent pilling.

• Minimalist (3 steps): 1) Cleanser (use an oil cleanser first if removing makeup or water-resistant SPF) → 2) d'Alba Revitalizing Serum → 3) Moisturiser (to lock in hydration).
• Optional: On nights you aren't using other strong actives, you can layer a sleeping pack as the final step for an intensive moisture boost, especially in air-conditioned rooms.
• Texture Rule: Always apply products from the thinnest consistency to the thickest.

• Daily Use — AM/PM:
  • Amount: 2-3 drops are sufficient for the face and neck.
  • Method: Shake the bottle well to mix the oil and essence layers. Dispense into your palms, then gently press and pat onto the skin until absorbed.
  • Frequency: Start with once a day (PM is ideal) to see how your skin responds. If well-tolerated after a week, you can increase to twice daily (AM and PM).
• If-This / Then-That:
  • Very Oily Skin? Use a smaller amount (1-2 drops) and focus on the outer parts of your face, applying less to the T-zone.
  • Very Dry / AC Exposure? Layer it over a hydrating toner and follow with a richer cream at night to seal everything in.
  • Sensitive Skin? Use only in your PM routine for the first week. Follow the patch test protocol.
  • Under Makeup? Ensure it's fully absorbed (wait 1-2 minutes) before applying SPF and primer to prevent pilling.
• Watchouts: A temporary feeling of warmth can occur due to the active ingredients. If your skin feels greasy, you may be using too much product. If you see no improvement in elasticity after 8 weeks, ensure you are using sunscreen daily to protect collagen.
• Safety: For external use only. Avoid direct contact with eyes. Do not use on broken or irritated skin. Stop use if a rash or burning sensation occurs.

This is a gentle daily serum. Here is how to incorporate it safely if you use other active ingredients.

• Daily Use: This serum can be used AM and PM every day.
• If You Use Exfoliants (AHA/BHA):
  • Mon: d'Alba Serum (AM/PM)
  • Tue: d'Alba Serum (AM) / Exfoliant (PM)
  • Wed: d'Alba Serum (AM/PM)
  • Thu: d'Alba Serum (AM) / Exfoliant (PM)
  • Fri-Sun: d'Alba Serum (AM/PM)
• If You Use Retinoids (Retinol/Retinal):
  • Rule: One strong active per night. Do not use retinoids and exfoliating acids on the same night.
  • Example Week (PM Focus): Mon (Retinoid) · Tue (d'Alba Serum, no other actives) · Wed (d'Alba Serum) · Thu (Retinoid) · Fri-Sun (d'Alba Serum).
• Mauritius Note: In humid weather, this serum might be hydrating enough to be your sole hydrator before sunscreen in the AM. In drier, air-conditioned environments, you may need to layer a moisturiser on top.

• Immediate: Skin feels softer, more hydrated, and has a subtle, healthy sheen.
• 2-4 Weeks: Skin appears more plump and radiant as hydration levels improve. The formula supports a healthier skin barrier.
• 4-8+ Weeks: With consistent daily use and diligent sun protection, you may notice an improvement in skin elasticity and firmness. The appearance of fine lines may be softened.

• Instead of using pure facial oils that can feel heavy or cause breakouts... use a balanced, bi-phasic serum like this one. The emulsified formula delivers the nourishment of oils and the potency of a water-based essence in a lightweight, more absorbable format.
• Instead of relying on DIY citrus juice for Vitamin C... use a professionally formulated product with stabilized vitamins. This serum contains Tocopherol (Vitamin E), a powerful antioxidant that is stable and effective without the photosensitizing risks of lemon juice.

• Works Well With: Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide, Peptides, Sunscreen, and most moisturisers. It's great for buffering the drying effects of retinoids (use on alternate nights or allow retinoid to fully absorb before applying).
• Use Carefully With: Avoid layering with multiple other oil-heavy products in the same routine, as this can feel greasy and may lead to congestion for some skin types.
• Avoid On: Do not apply to eyelids or over broken or irritated skin.

• Dry / Mature: Excellent. Provides much-needed lipids and nutrients to support elasticity and combat dryness.
• Normal / Combination: Very good. Balances the skin by providing nourishment without being overly heavy. Use less on the T-zone if needed.
• Oily: Use with caution. While lightweight for an oil-based product, it may feel too rich for very oily skin types, especially in high humidity. A patch test is recommended. Start with PM use only.
• Sensitive: Generally suitable, but contains fragrance and essential oils. A patch test is essential.

• Teens: This product is formulated for adult skin concerns like loss of elasticity. For teenagers, a basic routine of a gentle cleanser, a simple moisturiser, and daily sunscreen is the best foundation.

• Texture: A unique bi-phasic liquid. Once shaken, it becomes a milky, watery essence that feels light yet nourishing.
• Finish: Leaves a dewy, radiant glow without feeling heavy or greasy.
• Scent: A sophisticated and subtle floral-citrus aroma.
• pH: Not publicly disclosed by the brand.
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Compatibility: Contains several ingredients that could potentially trigger FA, including various oils and esters. Not considered FA-safe.

• Pilling or Rolling: You might be applying too much product or not waiting long enough before your next skincare step. Use only 2-3 drops and wait at least 60 seconds.
• Feels Too Greasy: Reduce the amount to 1-2 drops or reserve for PM use only, especially if you have combination or oily skin.
• Mild Tingling: A slight, temporary warming sensation can be normal due to active ingredients. If it turns into persistent stinging or redness, stop use.
• No Results After 8 Weeks: Ensure you're applying it consistently and, most importantly, using a broad-spectrum sunscreen every single morning. Sun exposure is the #1 cause of collagen degradation and will undo the benefits of any firming serum.

• Humid Summer: The lightweight texture is well-suited for Mauritius's humidity. For oily and combination skin types, this serum plus a sunscreen may be sufficient for your morning routine, allowing you to skip a separate moisturiser.
• Drier Winter / Air-Conditioning: The nourishing oil phase provides comfort and prevents dehydration in drier air or heavily air-conditioned environments. You may want to layer it with a moisturiser, especially at night.
• Storage: Store in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and excessive heat (like in a car) to preserve the potency of the antioxidants.

• Do I need a moisturiser after this serum?

  It depends on your skin type. Dry skin types will benefit from layering a moisturiser on top, especially at night. Oily and combination types may find this serum and a sunscreen is enough for the daytime, especially in humid weather.

• Can I use this around my eyes?

  It is best to avoid the immediate eye area and mobile eyelid. You can gently pat it along the orbital bone, but for the delicate under-eye area, a dedicated eye cream is recommended.

• Is it oily or sticky?

  When shaken and applied correctly (2-3 drops), it absorbs well and leaves a radiant, dewy finish that is not sticky or greasy.

• Will this serum make my natural skin tone lighter?

  No. The "brightening" function refers to increasing radiance and helping to even out skin tone by fading dark spots from sun damage or acne scars. It does not bleach or alter your inherent skin color.
