THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE FORMULA
Circular Chevron Icon

C-Tetra Advanced combines the potent power of vitamin C with barrier-supporting phyto exosomes alongside superantioxidant acetyl zingerone, to protect against premature skin ageing. C-Tetra Advanced is scientifically proven to shield against the environmental stressors that cause premature skin ageing, reducing damage by up to 78%.[3]

Daniel Isaacs Chief Product Officer

Traditional high-strength vitamin C serums can degrade before reaching the skin or cause irritation. C-Tetra Advanced is meticulously formulated with a 20% stabilised vitamin C complex, ensuring long-lasting potency from the first drop to the last. 

Encapsulated by nature and sourced from green tea leaves, phyto exosomes are rich in proteins, lipids, and messenger molecules. Acting as intelligent micro-carriers they carry key signalling molecules, like peptides and nutrients, to send signals to skin cells to help reinforce the skin barrier for optimal skin tolerance and comfort. 

Further fortified by omni-antioxidant acetyl zingerone, the next-generation formula helps shield skin from pollution-induced damage by neutralising free radicals, blocking harmful pollution particles, and strengthening the skin’s natural defences for increased skin resilience.
