American skincare brand Dermalogica has introduced the Phyto Nature E2 treatment ($259 for 100ml), a formula said to smooth and brighten skin while targeting visible signs of ageing such as dullness, fine lines and uneven texture.
The formula uses pumpkin enzyme to help remove dead skin cells, together with a plant-based exosome blend, which are tiny particles that support skin renewal.
It also contains phyto glycogen, a plant-derived sugar used to improve skin brightness and smoothness; prickly pear extract for hydration; and bio-fermented acetyl glucosamine, a skin-conditioning ingredient that adds moisture and antioxidant support.
To be used twice daily, the formula is applied on skin after cleansing and can be followed by other products such as serums and moisturisers.
