Sunscreen blocks UV. Antioxidants neutralize the free radicals UV creates when it slips through. That's why SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic (15% L-ascorbic acid + Vitamin E + ferulic acid) is applied UNDER your SPF, not instead of it. Eminence's Firm Skin Acai Serum is a beautiful plant-based alternative for clients sensitive to L-ascorbic acid. Skip the antioxidant step and you're fighting UV damage with half your defence.

Did You Know?

The Duke University study on CE Ferulic showed 96% reduction in UV-induced DNA damage — the ONLY topical proven to prevent damage at that level.

Ask Karine

"Which do I choose — CE Ferulic or Firm Skin Acai?" If your skin tolerates active vitamin C, CE Ferulic is the gold standard. If you're sensitive or prefer plant-based, Firm Skin Acai delivers a similar effect with berries and marshmallow HA.
