NIB Clark’s Botanicals Jasmine Vital Cream Serum/Moisturizer Hybrid

Nourishing gel-cream for skin that tends toward redness / 1.7 fl oz Clark’s Botanicals Jasmine Vital Cream is a lightweight gel-cream that absorbs instantly to soothe, revitalize, and gently clarify for dewy, plumped-up, petal-soft skin. Designed as a serum-moisturizer hybrid, we think it truly shines on sensitive skin types craving soothing, hydrating treatments. It has the highest concentration of Clark’s Botanicals’ Jasmine Catalyst complex of all the products in the lineup, which could explain why the brand’s founder, Francesco, describes the smell as “White Lotus, Season 3: there’s neroli from Sicily, jasmine from Tuscany, and everything else that’s from the US.” The jasmine, in particular, is a point of pride for Francesco; he explained to us, “Our jasmine extract is from night blooming jasmine, which releases an enzyme that makes the petals close as the sun comes up. It’s great for people with acne-prone skin, and it helps with collagen synthesis, too.” The Jasmine Catalyst complex also features time-released arnica montana to help with redness, time-released niacinamide to help even skin’s texture, and micronized red algae to plump and hydrate. While the Jasmine Catalyst complex contains a natural fragrance from the jasmine extract, our tester (who typically avoids fragranced products) was pleasantly surprised that it left her It's all blended into an addictively silky gel-cream that soaks into skin like coconut water for a velvety finish and a plumped-up glow.
