Isntree C Niacin Toning Cream 50ml

Isntree C Niacin Toning Cream is a 50ml moisturiser led by hippophae rhamnoides (sea buckthorn) fruit extract, with niacinamide and sodium ascorbyl phosphate, a stable vitamin C derivative, worked into the formula. A run of fruit oils, including argan, macadamia and camu camu, sits alongside ceramide NP and phytosphingosine for barrier support, with a small B-vitamin complex rounding out the ingredient list. Retinyl palmitate also appears further down the formula, a milder vitamin A ester rather than active retinol.

Suitable For

Suitable for those wanting a brightening finishing cream built around sea buckthorn, niacinamide and vitamin C. Because retinyl palmitate is present, use sunscreen during the day and patch test first if you have known sensitivity to vitamin A derivatives.
