No:Rinse Micellar Cleansing Treatment

Rosalba’s Recommendation: “Take this in your gym bag to instantly cleanse away sweat, dirt and oil post-workout while refreshing skin.”

A 3-in-1 cleanser, toner and makeup remover, this ultra-gentle liquid cleansing treatment removes surface debris and unclogs impurities from pores while smoothing and conditioning skin. It’s powered by micellar water, AKA mineral water infused with tiny oil molecules (“micelles”), for no-water-necessary. Naturally occurring amino acid L-carnitine and vitamin B5 work simultaneously to visibly brighten and clarify skin while reducing water loss. 

Vitamin C Ester Brightening Serum

Rosalba’s Recommendation: “Use this multi-tasking serum on face, eyes and lips before applying other treatments and moisturizer for enhanced brightening benefits.”

Supercharged with Vitamin C Ester, a more potent and highly stable form of antioxidant-rich vitamin C, this ultra-lightweight serum instantly boosts radiance. This bestselling treatment promotes the appearance of collagen-rich skin by visibly smoothing, brightening and minimizing discoloration. Meanwhile, squalane and rosemary leaf extract work to hydrate, visibly reduce fine lines and tighten skin.

Vitamin C Ester Photo-Brightening Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 30

Rosalba’s Recommendation: “Apply atop your eye cream as well as on your neck and ears for added sun protection in areas that we often forget to protect.”

Fast-absorbing and oil-free, this moisturizer works brilliantly to further brighten and smooth by minimizing the appearance of dark spots and imperfections. Our signature Vitamin C Ester works in tandem with Alpha-Lipoic Acid to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and enlarged pores and mineral-based sunscreen for advanced SPF protection against aging UVA and burning UVB rays. 

No Makeup Bronzer

Rosalba’s Recommendation: “Mix the Brightening Serum with this bronzer for a subtle sun-kissed glow.”

Enhance your natural beauty with this weightless liquid bronzer that creates a healthy-looking, sun-kissed glow without shine, shimmer or cake. Infused with skincare ingredients like Vitamin C Ester and Chinese ginger plant extract, it simultaneously improves the appearance of skin dullness and discoloration over time.

No Makeup Highlighter

Rosalba’s Recommendation: “Put one to two drops in the Photo-Brightening Moisturizer for an instant, all-over luminosity.”

This dewy, liquid-gel highlighter adds subtle luminosity and definition to accentuate your cheekbones, brow area and the tip of your nose with just a few drops. It’s sheer and blendable for instant and seamless application. Plus, it features the same skin-improving ingredients as the bronzer, it also improves the appearance of skin’s dullness and discoloration over time.
