Ethical, effective skincare is easy as A,B,C, with the launch this week of The ABC Active range from the award-winning Irish beauty brand, Holos Skincare.

Three light serums, focused on vitamins A, B and C, specifically target the building blocks of the skin; collagen, elastin and keratin.  Active ingredients promote structure, strength and support, boosting hydration and lipids to help plump and firm.

The botanical and active ingredients encourage the skin to work more efficiently, targeting deep into the dermis, while plant oils and extracts enhance the skin’s appearance at the epidermis level. Signs of skin ageing, including dehydration, lines, acne, inflammation, and pigmentation, are demonstrably improved.

Each serum has a distinct light texture and aroma, thanks to its gentle botanical formulation.

 

 

Holos  – ABC Active  – A – €55.00 30ml / 1fl.oz

This oil serum is a less irritating form of vitamin A, supported by Bakuchiol, which boosts cell turnover and aids the regeneration of collagen and elastin for a powerful anti-ageing effect.

Bakuchiol is a plant-based vegan skincare ingredient and a potent antioxidant that visibly reduces skin discolouration from environmental exposure and has a noticeable soothing effect on skin.

Rich in natural fatty acids, such as argan, Jojoba and Rosehip oils, the A serum aids hydration and reduces inflammation.  Cellular energy production helps protect the skin from damage that may cause premature ageing, and active ingredients support increased hydration and firmer skin to reduce the appearance of fine lines.

 

 

Holos  – ABC Active  – B – €45.00 30ml / 1fl.oz 

A gel serum ideal for sensitive skin, that improves texture and appearance and is especially effective for those who find retinol too harsh.  Natural proteins, derived from the tobacco plant, gently stimulate collagen and lipid production, to smooth and firm.

Vitamin B3, plant proteins and multi-weight hyaluronic acid strengthens and firms the skin by helping to build keratin.  The B serum conditions and hydrates by aiding ceramide production to retain moisture, resulting in improved skin texture.  Anti-inflammatory properties in the botanicals can help to reduce redness.

B serum is a valuable aid for oily and acne prone skin, helping regulate sebum production and reduce pore visibility.  Niacinamide protects against environmental stresses like sunlight and pollution, so will help reduce fine lines and wrinkles, while soothing aloe vera and cucumber is gentle for sensitive skin.

 

 

Holos  – ABC Active  – C – €49.00 30ml / 1fl.oz

A creamy gel serum, packed with vitamin C and peptides, this new Holos formulation promotes more radiant skin, thanks to cell rejuvenation and new collagen production.

Active ingredients are converted into Vitamin C within the skin, acting as a powerful antioxidant, to scavenge free radicals and prevent them from attaching to skin cells.

New collagen growth is stimulated, at the same time, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, to help even and brighten skin tone, and increase firmness and elasticity.

Cellular energy synthesis also happens, encouraging rejuvenation of cells and more radiant skin.  This new Holos C serum is suitable for all skin types.
