We’ve enriched our vegan serum with natural-origin peptides too, just for good measure. Derived from rice, peptides are known to help maintain the skin’s natural moisture barrier.

The Body Shop® Edelweiss serum concentrate is lightweight and does not clog pores, so it is ideal for oily skin types.
