Fresh Tea Elixir Resilience Activating Serum

It is donkey’s years since we first sat down with Fresh founder Lev Glazman to hear about his beauty vision. Gorgeous scents and some bliss-to-use skincare were born out of that, including a Fresh range that we’ve always been particularly fond of, based around tea – which of course contains a mega-dose of antioxidants.

This new silky serum is Fresh’s biggest launch in years, meanwhile – and we welcome any product that sets out to boost skin resilience, rather than peel away layers (as so many recent launches aim to do). In this case, the fresh-scented serum (it really does smell fragrantly of tea!) harnesses the power of an exclusive patented ingredient derived from a tea plant, grown in Mauritius, along with smoothing, radiance-boosting niacinamide and (is any formula complete without it?), hyaluronic acid.

You press six drops of the deliciously fragrant serum into complexion, via palms, to activate – and it pretty much does for skin what a cup of tea does for our energy levels, frankly.
