The Power Behind the Formula

Ingredient Benefit
7.7% Multi-Acid Complex (Phytic, Mandelic, Salicylic, Glycolic Acids) Provides multi-layered exfoliation, smoothing skin texture, evening tone, and unclogging pores.
1% Taurine Boosts skin cell energy, supports barrier repair, and helps maintain optimal hydration levels.
Fragrance-Free Minimizes the risk of irritation, making it suitable for sensitive skin.
Alcohol-Free Prevents dryness and irritation, ensuring a gentle exfoliating experience.

How to Use SkinCeuticals Cell Cycle Catalyst

  1. Begin with a clean face using your favorite gentle cleanser.
  2. Dispense 4-6 drops of SkinCeuticals Cell Cycle Catalyst onto your fingertips.
  3. Gently apply the serum to a dry face, avoiding the delicate eye area.
  4. Allow the serum to absorb completely before applying your moisturizer.
  5. Incorporate a broad-spectrum sunscreen into your morning routine, as the acids may increase sun sensitivity.

Important for South African Users: Start by using the serum 1-2 times per week, gradually increasing frequency as your skin tolerates it. Always perform a patch test before initial use and be diligent with sun protection.

Understanding Potential Effects

While SkinCeuticals Cell Cycle Catalyst is generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience mild and temporary redness, tingling, or dryness, especially upon initial use as the skin adjusts. Increased sensitivity to sunlight is also possible. If any of these effects persist or become bothersome, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist. Soothing ingredients like aloe vera can help alleviate discomfort.

  • Acne-Prone Skin: Helps to clear congested pores and reduce breakouts.

  • Aging Skin: Smooths fine lines, wrinkles, and improves skin elasticity.
  • Dull or Uneven Skin Texture: Revitalizes the complexion, revealing smoother, brighter skin.

Key Features that Set it Apart

  • Maintains Skin Hydration: Formulated to exfoliate without stripping the skin of essential moisture.
