Dr Webster’s Recommendation: This innovative antioxidant serum has been in development for some time, with SkinCeuticals’ founder Dr. Sheldon Pennell having patented the use of Silymarin an antioxidant formulation some 18 years ago! SkinCeuticals Silymarin CF improves sebum quality, resulting in fewer instances of breakouts. In more recent studies it has shown a 27% improvement in the reduction of blemishes. Ideal for adult acne-prone patients who also suffer from skin ageing, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, dullness, and lack of radiance. Skin purging may occur after the first application, a sign of the ingredients working.
