Skin Ceuticals Phyto A+ Brightening Treatment

A smoothing lightweight moisturizer with a gel-cream texture ideal for blemish-prone skin.

Phyto A+ Brightening Treatment is a lightweight moisturizer that helps soothe and correct out-of-balance skin to improve brightness, texture, and clarity. It is suitable for all skin types and our best face moisturizer for oily skin and acne-prone skin. An oil-free moisturizer, it is formulated with 3% azelaic acid, 2% alpha arbutin, and 5.75% phyto botanical blend to target key factors of surface imperfections and dull skin. This non comedogenic moisturizer and skin brightening treatment visibly relieves redness due to dryness and reduces excess oil. The formula smooths skin and minimizes the appearance of pores for enhanced clarity and brighter looking skin.
