Formulation Deep Dive

No7 Future Renew Damage Reversal Serum is formulated as a high-performance water-based treatment designed to repair visible signs of skin damage through a sophisticated peptide-driven delivery system. The carrier base utilizes a blend of dimethicone and glycerin for immediate barrier smoothing, supported by a humectant complex of butylene glycol, methyl gluceth-20, and propanediol to facilitate deep ingredient penetration. The formulation’s efficacy is centered on a synergistic peptide blend of palmitoyl tetrapeptide-94 and palmitoyl tetrapeptide-95, complemented by niacinamide (vitamin B3) for barrier reinforcement and sodium hyaluronate for multi-level hydration. To address oxidative stress, the serum incorporates ascorbyl glucoside (vitamin C derivative) and tocopheryl acetate (vitamin E). The system is stabilized using a robust polymer network of acrylates/beheneth-25 methacrylate copolymer and ammonium acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP copolymer, while maintaining integrity through a reliable preservative blend of phenoxyethanol, sodium benzoate, and ethylhexylglycerin.
