The latest SkinCeuticals brainchild is Resveratrol B E ($145)—the brand has a habit of labeling its products with its star ingredient—a night time intensive antioxidant that aims to boost the skin’s own defense system to help the daily repair process and prevent damage. In a 12-week clinical study, Resveratrol B E showed that radiance, firmness, elasticity, smoothness, and density were significantly improved.

The idea behind using resveratrol is not new (many other skincare brands, including Caudalie, have harnessed the molecule’s anti-aging power) but in this version, Resveratrol B E is used, which has a maximized concentration of 1% pure, stable resveratrol. This formulation is enhanced with 0.5% baicalin and 1% vitamin E to help bolster the skin’s natural antioxidant defenses.
