Beaut Serums

why we heart 'em

3 targeted serums and 1 chemical exfoliator. The products slot easily into any routine and the carefully curated ingredients all work like your face depends on it. The brands takes caution to include only ingredients with proven clinical results, ensuring the products deliver the results you need. 

The range is safe to use throughout pregnancy and breastfeeding. During this time, skincare routines are usually adapted, most often to exclude any form of Retinol. Beaut offers an alternative, with the same result, and as an added bonus, generally less irritation. Enter Bakuchiol. A naturally derived Retinol alternative.

Recently approved by the team at Dermastore, one of a few South African brands on the esteemed platform, congrats team Beaut! The brand has also received the nod of approval from SA’s OG Beauty Influencer Tori from Kiss, Blush & Tell, or more fondly known as KBT and Dr Lauren Knight, a dermatologist, better known as derm.discovered.

These beautiful serums are housed in biophotonic Miron Violet Glass. The dark coloured glass protects the actives, and ultimately extends the shelf life.
