The freshest skincare serums you can get

If you’re even the slightest skincare hoarder/collector, odds are you have more than a few lotions and potions that have fallen to the back of your medicine cabinet. Then, you likely “rediscover” them at some point and start using them again. Although I’m a huge fan of shopping my closet when I want something new (but don’t actually need to purchase a damn thing), this usually isn’t the best skincare idea. See, active ingredients lose their potency over time—which derails your efforts and could even lead to irritation or skin reactions.

Enter Fresh Chemistry, a new skincare brand that ensures your serums always perform at their peak. Each set includes a serum base and two add-ins that you combine when you’re ready to incorporate them to your skincare regimen. (In addition to being available as a one-time purchase, you can also sign up for a monthly subscription so your skin is never subjected to past-its-prime product.)

The Glow Getter Brightening Serum Set comes with active vitamin C (which is notorious for degrading upon contact with light and air) and alpha-hydroxy acid add-ins. You can also upgrade the kit with double the concentration on vitamin C and hyaluronic acid. The Wrinkle Release Peptide Serum Set comes with active peptide and amazon nut oil add-ins—and it can also be “supercharged” with the Marine Plus Renewal Booster.

Being a beauty geek I’ve always loved products that allow me to play cosmetic chemist. But Fresh Chemistry is about more than just fun (at least for me). It’s about offering your skin the freshest-possible ingredients for the best possible results, and you’ll be surprised at how well-priced these proven-effective serums are!
