FAQ

1. How is ActivCalm Skin Quenching Serum different from a hyaluronic acid serum?
Unlike traditional hyaluronic acid serums, ActivCalm Skin Quenching Serum combines electrolytes, Natural Moisturising Factors (NMFs) and advanced hydrating sugar technology to help skin attract, retain and regulate moisture more effectively. It also helps strengthen the skin barrier for longer-lasting hydration and healthier-looking skin.

2. Is it suitable for all skin types?
ActivCalm Skin Quenching Serum is suitable for all skin types, including dehydrated, sensitive and compromised skin. The lightweight, non-comedogenic formula absorbs quickly without clogging pores, making it suitable for oily, combination and acne-prone skin as well.

3. Can oily or acne-prone skin become dehydrated?
Oily skin can still become dehydrated when it lacks water rather than oil. Dehydrated skin may even produce excess oil to compensate. This lightweight serum replenishes moisture without clogging pores, helping skin feel hydrated, balanced and comfortable.

4. Does this serum help repair a damaged skin barrier?
