Charlotte Tilbury Dark Spot Correcting Radiance Recovery Serum For Face + Eye
Charlotte Tilbury skincare is all about the glow. If you want radiant, glistening skin this is the brand to go for. In fact, I didn’t realise just how beautiful the brand’s skincare was until I tried it myself. The new Charlotte Tilbury Dark Spot Correcting Radiance Recovery Serum For Face + Eye sets out to correct and brighten our skin, even if the name is a bit of a mouthful…
What Does The New Charlotte Tilbury Serum Promise?
Skincare to give confidence in a bottle, that’s what the new Charlotte Tilbury serum promises; let’s break it down.
Charlotte’s new Dark Spot Correcting Radiance Recovery Serum for the face and eye area is clinically proven to reduce the appearance of:
- Hyperpigmentation
- Age spots and sunspots
- Under eye dark circles
- Redness
- Post blemish marks
The Science
Powered by a clever new focussed delivery system, Precision Fade EvenskinTM Technology, the active ingredients directly target areas of pigmentation rather than the face as whole; and those active ingredients? Vitamin C and Tranexamic Acid, to target dark spots, brighten and rejuvenate skin.
The serum is designed to brighten and boost radiance while addressing any issues of pigmentation, age spots or dark circles. It dual use and can be used under the eyes and across the face, neck and declotage.
It has been formulated to strengthen the skins barrier while easing visible signs of stress and sun damage.
Of course, the new serum has been created to work on all skin tones and skin types and has been clinically proven in 6 weeks to:
- strengthens the skin barrier
- increases radiance and luminosity
Let’s talk about this new delivery system: Precision-Fade EvenSkin Technology
This targeted delivery system utilises Liposome Spheres to point the active ingredients precisely where they are needed. Adaptive Amber Microalgae Extract is a key ingredient put to use here helping to create an even complexion over time.
Antioxidants are your brightening best friend and work wonders with reducing age spots, so the combination of Vitamin C + Tranexamic Acid is an excellent choice.
The skins barrier can easily be damaged, via environmental factors or overuse of strong products. Charlotte Tilbury has taken this into consideration in this serum with Biomimetic Barrier Shield Technology. Ceramides are fatty acids that work a little like a glue keeping skin cells together. My favourite analogy is to think of skin like a brick wall. The bricks are the skin cells, the cement ceramides. Ceramides keep this wall in tact, ensuring that the outside elements can’t penetrate and that internal moisture doesn’t seep out (Trans Epidermal Water Loss). This forms a ‘skin barrier’. A damaged barrier can cause irritation, redness, sensitivity, dryness and so on. Ceramide levels decrease as we age and need replenishing when then skins barrier has been damaged; a serum that targets this can be very helpful.
In this serum Biomimetic Liposomes, similar to ceramides, help to strengthen the barrier.
Texture & Application
This serum is a gel consistency that feels hydrating and instantly sinks into the skin. There is no greasiness and it layers beautifully with other products, both Charlotte Tilbury skincare and 3 other creams and SPF I have tested alongside.
There is an immediate glow on application. My skin looks instantly brightened and healthy.
Packaging & Price
If there’s one thing Tilbury does well it’s packaging and Radiance Recovery Serum fits into the lineup perfectly with its luminous, pearlescent white bottle and rose gold lid. A pump action bottle ensures the serum remains air tight, essential for any vitamin C.
It also comes with an outer card box with all of the product information and directions.
Charlotte Tilbury Dark Spot Correcting Radiance Recovery Serum is available from 6th March 30ML £70
Final Thoughts Of The New Charlotte Tilbury Serum
A brightening serum was missing in the brands lineup so it is a natural progression and a welcome launch. The texture is pleasing and the immediate results are beautiful, these are said to only build over time. Due to other brand commitments I couldn’t start daily testing of this serum just yet but will be this week and shall update in 4 weeks with my results, so do check back.
This serum is one to look out for if you wish to target age spots and hyperpigmentation and enjoy an over all brightness and radiance to your complexion. It’s out today!
