Senolytic Serum

Description

Marie Veronique Senolytic Serum is a lightweight serum inspired by longevity research and the study of cellular senescence, the accumulation of aging or stressed cells associated with visible signs of aging. Created with mature skin in mind, the specialized formula brings a modern age-delay approach to concerns such as dullness, uneven texture and loss of firmness.

Fisetin, a naturally occurring flavonoid studied for its potential senolytic activity, is encapsulated to help preserve its stability within the formula. Astragalus root and magnesium ascorbyl phosphate, a stable form of vitamin C, complement the targeted blend with antioxidant care. The fluid texture absorbs easily, leaving skin feeling smooth and refreshed with a healthy-looking radiance.

What is Senescence? Cellular senescence is a natural biological process in which cells stop dividing but remain active in the body. As we age, these senescent cells can accumulate and release signals that may contribute to visible changes in the skin, including loss of firmness, uneven texture, and other signs associated with aging. Senolytic skincare is designed around this emerging area of longevity science, with ingredients selected to support healthier-looking skin and help maintain a more resilient, vibrant appearance over time.

HOW TO USE IT

Shake well before use. Smooth 1–2 pumps over the face, neck, and chest. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct light and use within six months of opening.
