Highlights
Suitable for
Blemish-prone skin or normal skin as a once-a-week pore refiner.
Why we stand behind it
Created in collaboration with Kristina Holey, this exfoliating serum was formulated to target congested skin using AHAand BHAand B5and B3—powerful compounds for chronic breakouts and refining skin.
It safely and effectively combats either chronic acne or sporadic breakouts, working naturally by supplying missing micronutrients rather than assaulting skin with anti-microbials that may compromise microbiome integrity.
Marie Veronique Intensive Repair Serum is part of the first collaboration between Kristina Holey, celebrated skin care specialist, and Marie Nadeau, the amazing formulator behind Marie Veronique. The first products in the Kristina Holey and Marie Veronique line (also including Marie Veronique Soothing B3 Serum) are designed to address common skin conditions.
Key ingredients
Vitamin B5: Regulates sebum overproduction by boosting Co-enzyme A activity.
Lactic acid: An alpha-hydroxy acid that speeds cell turnover rates and supports ceramide production.
Willow bark: A beta-hydroxy acid that clears clogged pores by dissolving skin protein from the outside in. Our most effective acne-fighter.
Acetic acid: Apple cider vinegar maintains healthy pH levels to discourage pathogenic overgrowth.
Marrubium extract: An anti-inflammatory that soothes irritated skin.

What is an undertone?
An undertone is the color beneath the surface of your skin, which never changes (even with a tan). There are three types of undertones:
Pink/Cool
I see red or pink undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin burns easily, but barely tans.
My skin looks better in silver jewelry than gold.
Neutral
I see both pink and yellow undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin sometimes burns and sometimes tans.
My skin looks good in both gold and silver jewelry.
Yellow/Warm
I see yellow or golden undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin rarely burns, but tans easily.
My skin looks better in gold jewelry than silver.

Usage
Shake well. At night, apply a thin layer after cleansing and misting. Follow with Barrier Restore Serum. (Also apply Soothing B3 Serum at this time if you have inflammatory or dehydration concerns). Finish with one of our recommended oil blends, such as Treatment Oil or Rejuvenating Night Oil.
If irritation develops discontinue use and consult a physician. Keep in a cool place out of direct sunlight. Use within 6 months of opening.
*Additional Information: Intensive Repair is an active, exfoliating, and clearing product and people should always begin using it sparingly. It is suggested to begin using Intensive Repair only 2x/week (as part of the PM regimen) and can increase frequency during times of oil increase or as a spot treatment (ie. some clients only use the 7 days before their period or when stressed). Also, you can use it on small sections of more problematic skin rather than over entire face (for example just in T zone, around the chin, or on the nose). Think about how various parts of your face feels, your sensitivity, your needs, etc (as with ALL other products). It is not advised to begin using it daily until you have given your skin a chance to adjust and see how it responds. As with all products, everyone will respond differently so take it slowly to start and also take into consideration all other products you are using at the same time and what their potential impact will be (retinoids, exfoliating cleansers, masks, toners, etc).
