Soothing serum for sensitive skin with arnica and centella
Reactive skin is more than just a skin type — it is skin that is constantly in a state of alert. External factors like cold, wind, hard water, pollution, and stress activate a continuous inflammatory response in the skin, resulting in redness, a burning sensation, sensitivity to touch, and a weakened skin barrier. Breaking this cycle requires a formula that soothes while protecting against the causes.
The DermaQuest Soothing Antioxidant Complex combines classic soothing plant extracts such as arnica, centella asiatica, and chamomile with an extensive antioxidant complex and moisturizing ingredients. The formula soothes visible redness, supports skin barrier repair, and protects the skin from environmental stress. The result is skin that feels noticeably calmer, more comfortable, and balanced.
Benefits
- Soothes visible redness and irritation with arnica and centella asiatica
- Protects against environmental stress with a rich antioxidant complex
- Deeply hydrates with sodium hyaluronate and AcquaCell moisture complex
- Strengthens the skin barrier and makes the skin less reactive to stimuli
- Suitable for very sensitive and couperose-prone skin with daily use
Active ingredients
Arnica montana extract: Arnica has been used for centuries to reduce bruising, swelling, and redness. In skincare, it supports blood circulation in the superficial skin vessels, reduces visible red spots, and helps the skin recover from micro-irritations.
Centella asiatica: Also known as cica or tiger grass, centella is one of the most researched soothing ingredients in modern skincare. It contains asiaticosides that inhibit inflammation, support collagen production, and strengthen the skin barrier — a solution for stressed or sensitive skin.
Bisabolol and chamomile: Bisabolol is the active soothing ingredient from chamomile and is known for its ability to reduce irritation and redness on multiple levels simultaneously. It is gentle enough for even the most reactive skin.
Antioxidant complex with ginkgo biloba, white tea, and ubiquinone: This combination of antioxidants neutralizes free radicals caused by UV radiation, pollution, and oxidative stress. Ubiquinone (coenzyme Q10) supports the cellular energy of skin cells, while ginkgo biloba and white tea protect the skin from premature aging due to environmental damage.
Amino acid complex (leucine, valine, arginine, lysine, taurine): Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins in the skin, including collagen and the natural moisturizing factor. This complex nourishes the skin at the cellular level and supports the natural moisture balance, keeping the skin supple and balanced.
AcquaCell moisture complex: A combination of trehalose, urea, and watermelon extract that provides the skin with natural moisture-binding substances. This complex strengthens the cellular cohesion of the skin and reduces fine dryness lines and flaking.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use this serum for couperose or rosacea?
Yes, this formula is especially suitable for couperose and the symptoms of mild rosacea. Arnica, centella, and bisabolol are classic ingredients in the treatment of visible blood vessels and chronic redness. If rosacea has been diagnosed, it is always advisable to coordinate with a dermatologist or skin therapist.
Can I use this serum after a professional skin treatment like a peel?
Yes. Due to its soothing and barrier-strengthening effects, this serum is an excellent choice during the recovery phase after a chemical peel, microneedling, or laser treatment. Always follow the specific aftercare advice from your skin therapist.
Does this serum combine well with retinol or acids?
Yes, and that is actually one of the strengths. When you use retinol or exfoliating acids at other times, this serum helps to soothe the skin and support the barrier. You can also separate them into two routines: actives in the evening, soothing serum in the morning.
