Sérum Glow Darker

Cosmetic preferences and individual circumstances differ during pregnancy and breastfeeding. If you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding and have concerns about using products containing essential oils, speak to your midwife, GP or another suitably qualified healthcare professional before use.

Keep the bottle securely closed and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.

Use within six months of opening and avoid allowing the dropper to touch the skin, as this helps protect the remaining product.

Natural, Darker and Deeper are each available in three sizes:

• 5 ml sample: ideal for trying a shade before selecting a larger bottle
• 15 ml: a smaller full-size option or convenient travel size
• 30 ml: the best option for regular use

The formulas combine jojoba oil, rosehip oil, wheatgerm oil, jojoba wax and sea buckthorn fruit oil with astaxanthin derived from Haematococcus pluvialis.

They also contain botanical aromatic ingredients, including ylang-ylang, frankincense, neroli, jasmine and rose. Darker and Deeper use higher concentrations of the astaxanthin ingredient to create their richer colour.

Please refer to the ingredient list displayed on the individual product page and packaging for the full current INCI declaration.

Avoid direct contact with the eyes and do not apply the serum to mucous membranes or broken skin.

If the product enters the eyes, rinse carefully with clean water. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.

Apply a small amount to a discreet area of clean, unbroken skin and leave it undisturbed. Monitor the area before proceeding to wider facial use.

A patch test cannot guarantee that a reaction will never occur, but it can help identify an immediate sensitivity to a new product.

The formulas contain botanical extracts and fragrant essential oils, including ylang-ylang, frankincense, neroli, jasmine and rose. These ingredients may not suit every sensitive or reactive complexion.

Patch test the serum before first use. If irritation occurs, discontinue use.

The serums are designed for the general adult population and can be used across different skin types. As they are oil-based, the amount required will vary.

Dry skin may prefer a slightly more generous application, while combination or oil-prone skin may need only a small number of drops. Individual responses vary, so introduce the product gradually.

The natural colour of astaxanthin means transfer may occur if too much product is used or it has not been allowed to absorb fully.

Apply sparingly, massage it evenly into the skin and wash your hands after use. Allow the serum to absorb before dressing, applying makeup or allowing the skin to touch pale fabrics.

Yes. Allow the serum to absorb fully before applying makeup.

Using only a small amount will help create a smoother base and reduce the possibility of excess oil affecting products applied afterwards. If your makeup begins to move or separate, try using fewer drops and allowing a little more time between layers.

Natural, Darker and Deeper are particularly suited to daytime use because their colour can add visible warmth and radiance to the complexion.

Apply the serum after cleansing, allow it to absorb and follow with moisturiser if needed. During the day, always finish with a suitable broad-spectrum sunscreen.

The serum does not contain SPF and does not replace sun protection.

Yes. The serum can be incorporated into your daily skincare routine.

How often you use it will depend on your skin, preferred finish and existing routine. If the product is new to you, introduce it gradually and observe how your skin responds.

Shake the bottle thoroughly before use.

Apply a small number of drops to clean, dry skin and gently massage over the face and neck until evenly distributed. Allow the serum time to absorb before applying further skincare, SPF or makeup.

Begin with a small amount, particularly when using Darker or Deeper. More can be added if you would like a richer finish.

No. NIBU Astaxanthin Serum is not a self-tanning product and does not contain a developing tanning ingredient.

Its naturally rich colour provides immediate-looking warmth when applied. The effect does not continue developing after application and is removed when the product is cleansed from the skin.

Choose according to the level of warmth you would like rather than your skin tone alone.

Select Natural for a subtle everyday glow, Darker for a warmer sun-kissed finish or Deeper for the richest result.

If you are unsure, begin with a 5 ml sample or choose the lighter shade. You can then adjust the amount used or move to a deeper formula once you know how it appears on your skin.

All three serums share the same botanical-oil base but contain different concentrations of astaxanthin, giving each formula a different depth of colour.

Natural provides the lightest, most subtle warmth.

Darker provides a more noticeable sun-kissed appearance.

Deeper provides the richest and most intense warmth.

The shades refer to the visible depth of the serum rather than fixed foundation shades. The final appearance will vary depending on your skin tone and the amount applied.

NIBU Astaxanthin Serum is a leave-on facial oil created with astaxanthin and a carefully selected blend of botanical oils and extracts.

The oil-based formula helps moisturise and condition the skin, leaving it feeling soft, nourished and comfortable while enhancing its natural-looking radiance.
