Active Serum
Active Serum is iS Clinical's cult-classic multi-acid serum, a revitalizing treatment that helps reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles, minimizes the appearance of pores and leaves skin looking more radiant and even-toned.
Its botanical exfoliating system pairs sugarcane extract, a natural source of glycolic acid, with willow bark extract, a natural source of salicylic acid, plus bilberry extract for lactic acid-style surface exfoliation. Arbutin and mushroom extract round out the formula to support a brighter, clearer-looking complexion.
Expect a brief cooling or tingling sensation as it goes on, which iS Clinical notes is normal. The lightweight texture layers easily under hydrators and sunscreen.
Why We Chose It
At Crafted Beauty, we look for exfoliating serums that deliver visible results without a complicated routine. Active Serum stood out because it combines botanical AHA and BHA sources in a few drops that work on lines, pores, tone and blemish-prone skin at once. It's a thoughtful choice for anyone who wants smoother, clearer, brighter-looking skin from a single step.
