A glow-up in a bottle. This gentle yet effective exfoliating serum is designed to smooth, hydrate, and clarify—all without the sting. Powered by 5% PHA for mild exfoliation, it combines the resurfacing benefits of Mucor Miehei Extract (a mushroom-derived enzyme) with the deep hydration of Tremella Mushroom and Hyaluronic Acid. Niacinamide brings it all together by soothing inflammation and balancing skin tone. 

 Why It Works: 

  • Gently exfoliates to refine skin texture and promote cell renewal 

  • Unclogs pores and helps prevent future breakouts 

  • Hydrates + plumps with mushroom-derived moisture boosters 

  • Soothes and strengthens the skin barrier 

Hero Ingredients: 

  • 5% PHA – A sensitive-skin-friendly exfoliant that helps smooth and brighten 

  • Mucor Miehei Extract – A gentle, enzymatic exfoliator from mushroom origin that encourages healthy skin turnover 

  • Tremella Mushroom – A powerful humectant that retains up to 500x its weight in water for long-lasting hydration 

    • Deep Hydration: Acts like a natural alternative to Hyaluronic Acid, holding up to 500 times its weight in water, providing intense hydration.
    • Skin Barrier Support: Helps reinforce the skin's natural barrier, locking in moisture and protecting against environmental stressors.
    • Anti-Aging: Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by keeping the skin plump and hydrated.
    • Brightening: Promotes a more even skin tone and imparts a radiant glow by improving moisture retention.
    • Antioxidant Protection: Provides antioxidant benefits that help neutralize free radicals and reduce oxidative stress on the skin.
    • Soothing: Calms and soothes irritated or inflamed skin, making it ideal for sensitive skin types.
    • Improves Skin Elasticity: Enhances skin elasticity and suppleness, contributing to a smoother and firmer complexion. 
  • Hyaluronic Acid – Attracts moisture to keep skin soft and supple 

  • Niacinamide – Minimizes the look of pores, calms irritation, and supports barrier health

    HERO INGREDIENTS

    • 5% PHA Poly Hydroxy Acid

      This larger acid molecule is gentle enough for even sensitive skin, minimizing irritation-no tightness, just smooth, conditioned skin. It gently exfoliates, improving skin texture, and helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. With antioxidant power, it fights free radicals and UV damage.

    • Mucor Miehei Extract (Mushroom Extract)

      Provides deep hydration, locking in moisture and supporting the skin barrier while acting as a natural alternative to Hyaluronic Acid. They help reduce fine lines, brighten skin tone, and offer antioxidant protection against environmental stressors. Additionally, they soothe irritated skin and improve elasticity, making the skin appear smoother and firmer.

    • Tremella Fuciformis Polysaccharides & Hyaluronic Acid

      Combines different molecular weights of Hyaluronic Acid and Tremella Polysaccharides to deliver a silky, refreshing skin feel and long-lasting moisturization. The formulation prevents moisture loss at the surface and deeply hydrates the skin, penetrating the epidermis and dermis for maximum effect. Additionally, it reduces TEWL, scavenges free radicals, protects against UV damage, and strengthens the skin barrier.

    • Niacinamide

      It balances ceramides and fatty acids to maintain a healthy skin barrier, reducing water loss and keeping skin hydrated. Additionally, it evens out skin tone, diminishes dark marks, protects against environmental stressors, supports collagen synthesis for improved elasticity, and helps regulate sebum levels to reduce breakouts.

    This serum is incredible. Been using it for 2 weeks now together with Rise&Shine and the Glow Glaze, it's a trifecta for sure. I am so happy I switched to Standard Beauty. I don't think I'll ever use anything else. So excited to build my collection.

    Exfoliating serum

    Really helped with breakouts on my cheeks as well as evening out my skin tone making it appear smoother and blemish free. I have a few Standard beauty ptoducts but this one is my new obsession.
