Hana Defies Time Phytotherapy Serum is rich creamy-serum that offers the effects of both antiaging serum and light but deeply hydrating moisturizer. It is truly a unique product with a scent of vanilla and a hint of a caramel undertone.

SUITABLE FOR: all skin types

pH: ~ 4.0

SKIN FEEL: rich, quickly absorbing serum with a radiant finish, resulting in a well-hydrated, younger-looking, glowing complexion.

AROMA: a warm, delicious scent of vanilla hinted with caramel and powdery undernotes

Long-term use improves skin texture, diminishes fine lines, and improves the overall look and feel of the skin.

Phaedra’s natural vitamin C complex is prepared from organic freeze-dried fruits with the highest vitamin C content, namely Acerola and Camu Camu. Acerola is known to have 50–100 times higher vitamin C content than orange or lemon.

The freeze-drying preparation process where the frozen fruits are placed under a vacuum leads to the highest preservation of their original vitamin C content.

As such, Phaedra’s Vitamin C complex is much more effective than synthetically prepared and inexpensive ascorbic acid.

Our blend of Bakuchiol and organic carrot CO2 extract in jojoba oil represents a natural alternative to synthetic Retinol. Bakuchiol has been clinically demonstrated to reduce hyperpigmentation and wrinkles as efficiently as Retinol, with a better skin tolerance. Together with our organic carrot CO2 extract, they act against aging and visibly minimize skin damage.

African Argan, Marula, and French Apricot oil deliver lipid-soluble vitamin E together with beneficial omegas.

A careful selection of botanical extracts, such as Gingko Biloba, green tea, French organic aloe vera, cucumber, and red wine extract, deliver potent antiaging properties.

Never rushed with harmful solvents, their preparation at room temperature happens slowly in beautiful France to yield their full potential.

One of the best products I have ever tried, which offers the most pleasant experience. I love that I received the serum a couple of days after production, and opening my first bottle was such a sensorial-rich experience! It smells gorgeous and has this unique texture for a serum. It feels more like a light yet rich moisturizer. It hydrates profoundly! My skin immediately turned velvet and radiant, although it was pretty dry after colder months. Fantastic serum and a must-try! I will be repurchasing with the next round.

I personally use the Hanna Defies Time Serum morning and evening. And I can really say: I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! My skin feels silky soft and is extremely nourished and moisturized the whole day and night. My sensitive skin looks healthy, glowy, and is never irritated, although there are many actives in that serum. So at the moment, it is my personal favorite, and I will never skip it in my routine. Mornings, I put Erato’s on top, and in the evenings, Ex Prunis. Phaedra’s two face oils make the perfect extra nourish addition to help lock moisture in. Thank you for your amazing products!

I’ve just finished my first bottle of this beautiful serum, which I shared with my husband. And my gosh, it is beautiful. But first, it’s the scent that got me hooked. Quite possibly the most beautiful scent I’ve ever inhaled, and throughout the day, I kept getting whiffs of the aroma. Heavenly! What I also love about this serum is that it really is 2 products in 1. Yes, it’s a serum. And yes, it’s also a moisturiser. I didn’t need an oil or cream on top. It nourished and moisturised my skin perfectly. And left my skin looking and feeling amazing. Glowing. Hydrated. Soft. Smooth. And healthy. Love it!
