Performance Face Serum - Natural & Anti-Ageing

£30.00

Performance Face Serum — Natural & Anti-Ageing (50ml)

A Intensive, Multi-Action Cell Rejuvenator for All Skin Types, Including Sensitive Skin

  • The Problem: As skin ages, cellular turnover slows down and environmental stress degrades collagen, and lines appear. Heavy creams often sit on the surface, while synthetic treatments like retinol can cause redness, peeling, and barrier inflammation.

  • The Solution: Our high-performance, 98% natural, lightweight gel-lotion engineered with smaller molecule sizes to deliver deep-set nutrition, line-smoothing peptides, and hydration directly into the dermal layers.

  • The Finish: Skin is immediately comforted, deeply renewed, and visibly plumped, revealing a smooth, radiant, and evenly toned complexion with a silky-soft feel.

Target Skin Concerns & Solutions

  • Expression Lines & Wrinkles: Eases and smooths structural creases on the forehead, cheeks, and around the mouth using line-smoothing Hibiscus Peptide.

  • Dullness & Uneven Skin Tone: Restores luminous vitality, brightness, and tone to tired skin matrices using polyphenol-dense Green Tea and Pomegranate Extracts.

  • Dermal Dehydration & Elasticity Loss: Plumps up sunken layers and boosts structural bounce via low-molecular-weight Sodium Hyaluronate.

  • Collagen Degradation & Glycation: Protects vital structural fibres and maintains structural bounce using anti-glycation Rosemary Leaf Extract.

Multi-Award-Winning Beauty Integrity

Formulated to deliver maximum anti-ageing results without the irritation commonly triggered by synthetic retinoids or artificial acids, this clean corrective treatment is a highly celebrated UK favourite. It is fully registered cruelty-free, 100% vegan, and proudly made in the UK.

How It Works: The Science of Deep-Layer Correction

While moisturisers are formulated to shield the outer stratum corneum, this Performance Face Serum utilizes an advanced, lightweight fluid vehicle. The micro-sized botanical actives bypass surface resistance to deposit intensive nutrition into the deeper layers of the epidermis, targeting structural ageing at its source.

1. The Natural Retinol Alternative

Instead of relying on harsh synthetic retinoids that compromise the skin's moisture barrier, this formula centers around Hydrolyzed Hibiscus Esculentus Extract. This pure botanical peptide works naturally to soften the intensity of muscle movements that cause expression lines, relaxing the appearance of deep folds and dynamic wrinkles safely.

2. Advanced Intradermal Hydration and Plumping

To reverse the thinning texture typical of mature skin, pure Sodium Hyaluronate is driven into the epidermis. Acting like an internal moisture cushion, it binds water molecules to the cellular matrix, supporting natural collagen synthesis and instantly lifting the look of hollow or dehydrated areas across the face and neck.

3. Cellular Repair and Anti-Glycation Defence

Environmental pollution and sun exposure accelerate skin structural damage. The potent antioxidant synergy of Pomegranate and Green Tea neutralizes free radicals, while Rosemary Leaf Extract provides targeted anti-glycation protection—safeguarding existing collagen and elastin fibres from hardening and breaking down over time.

The Pure Beauty Promise

This biodegradable, 98% natural formulation is intentionally clean, stable, and free from common sensitising agents. It contains absolutely no parabens, retinoids, synthetic vitamin C, MEA, beta-glucan, artificial dyes, or synthetic fragrances. Housed in an eco-friendly bio-plastic bottle derived from sustainable sugar cane, this formula is entirely wheat-free, gluten-free, and dairy-free.

  • 98% Natural and Plant-Based Formula

  • 100% Vegan & Cruelty-Free

  • Leaping Bunny Registered

  • Free From Retinol, Synthetic Vitamin C, and Silicones

  • Bio-Plastic Packaging Crafted From Sugar Cane

  • Proudly Made in the UK

Directions for Use: Maximize Your Glow

The Serum Protocol

Because serums contain a highly concentrated dose of active ingredients, they must always be applied directly to clean, bare skin before locking them in with heavier lipid layers.

  • Step One: Thoroughly cleanse the face and neck, removing all surface impurities and patting the skin dry.

  • Step Two: Dispense a few drops of the serum onto your fingertips and press gently into the face and neck, ensuring even coverage across wrinkle-prone zones.

  • Step Three: Allow the lightweight gel-lotion to fully absorb for 60 seconds, then follow with your preferred facial oil or moisturiser to seal in the active botanical compounds.

Application Strategy

  • Timing: Integrate into your routine every morning and evening. For the ultimate age-defying synergy, pair this treatment directly under the Nakin Matt Formula or Active Dew Face Creams.

  • Device Compatibility: This formula works seamlessly with modern beauty tools, including cream applicators, derma rollers, face massagers, and advanced spa therapies.

Product Profile

  • Texture: A lightweight, silky gel-like lotion that rapidly sinks into the skin without leaving a tacky or heavy residue.

  • Aroma: Delicately scented with a subtle, 100% natural, fresh botanical blend.

  • Natural Integrity: Due to the high percentage of unrefined plant extracts, slight variations in colour and consistency may occur between batches.
  • Ingredients: Aqua (Water), Glycerin, Cetearyl Alcohol, Hydrogenated Ethylhexyl Olivate, Glyceryl Stearate SE, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Benzyl Alcohol, Hydrogenated Olive Oil Unsaponifiables, Hydrolyzed Hibiscus Esculentus Extract, Dextrin, Stearic Acid, Adansonia Digitata (Baobab) Seed Oil, Argania Spinosa (Argan) Kernel Oil, Alcohol Denat., Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Sodium Hyaluronate, Dehydroacetic Acid, Punica Granatum (Pomegranate) Fruit Extract, Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Leaf Extract, Parfum/ Fragrance (Natural), Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract, Laminaria Japonica (Seaweed) Extract, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, Linalool, Limonene

Reviews

This serum makes my skin

"This serum makes my skin feel really soft and sinks into my skin quickly. Lovely!"

Anne S. (5/5)

Perfect

"I use this daily and it’s perfect for my skin. It absorbs quick enough to apply make up over without being greasy. My skin feels lovely all day"

Ann (5/5)

Active dew face cream and Face serum.

"Very pleased with my NAKIN produce. My skin is looking really good and not dry las it used to."

mary b. (5/5)

At last a non sticky Serum

"This is the first serum I have used that feels lovely on my skin and isn’t sticky. I was previously an Elemis girl but have been using Nakin now for a couple of years (particularly the face oil which is fantastic and so economical compared to other brands) and I must say I am very impressed so will definitely be purchasing more in the future"

Tracey K. (5/5)

A pleasure to use!

"I have been using this serum for a couple of months now . . it glides across the skin, sinks in quickly and works well with the Active Dew Face Cream but it is probably a bit early to tell if it is making any discernible difference."

Jan (5/5)

My absolute favourite

"I've been using this serum for about 15 months now. I started using it when I had a rosacea flare up and I credit it with calming it down and keeping things in check. Amazing customer service from this company too."

Nicola G. (5/5)

Highly recommend!

"Face serum goes on so smooth and is not greasy at all. Been using it for a week and already see a difference in my skin. My first shipment got lost and customer service was amazing. Quickly sent a new package and updated me on the tracking along the way! Awesome job and products!"

Sarah C. (5/5)

Karen W. (5/5)

Performance Face Serum

"Really good serum. My skin flared up red & sore recently, after my latest MS infusion. It has really helped to calm it down. Very hydrating. Lovely serum. A little goes a long way."

Dorothy E. (5/5)

Thoroughly Impressed

"Really lovely products that have addressed my concerns. Found when searching for a replacement for REN and so glad that I did. Has exceeded my expectations and delivered great results. Bear in mind that I am comparing to major skincare brands including Estée Lauder, Decleor and Crème De La Mer. Have and will continue to recommend. Also impressive level of customer service. Really great products and experience"

Q&A

Does the oil complements the serum or best to use separately. I have very dry skin
Thank you for your query. You can use them together or on their own. If you are looking for a serum then our Performance Face Serum is lovely and can be for day and night use, it is more like a lotion than most serums and has lots of hydration, nourishment and skin improving properties with the line smoothing plant peptide, plumping & hydrating hyaluronic acid, plus many boosting oils and extracts. The Revitalising Face oil is healing and calming for skin and provides intense nourishment from the special blend of plant oils. The formula will also deeply reach the skin cells to revive and calm. It is packed with grape seed, sweet almond, olive, baobab, argan, jojoba and peach oils. Helping to relax and rejuvenate skin during the day and while we sleep, moisturising and comforting the skin to leave it revitalised and glowing. I hope that this answers your question and please let us know if we can help further. Thanks again, Nakin x
