Phloretin CF® is a brightening antioxidant serum by SkinCeuticals formulated specifically for combination and oily skin types. The patented formula combines 2% phloretin, 10% L-ascorbic acid, and 0.5% ferulic acid to provide environmental protection while simultaneously addressing discoloration, uneven tone, and fine lines. Where CE Ferulic is the gold standard for dry-to-normal skin, Phloretin CF is the gold standard for combination and oily skin—delivering comparable antioxidant power with a lighter, oil-friendly texture. Available exclusively at RELUXE Med Spa in Westfield and Carmel, Indiana.
Phloretin is a naturally occurring antioxidant found in apple seeds that provides unique skin-brightening benefits beyond standard vitamin C. It inhibits melanin transport to the skin surface, making it particularly effective for patients dealing with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, sun spots, and melasma alongside oily or combination skin. The lightweight fluid texture absorbs quickly without adding shine or congestion—critical for patients who struggle with midday oiliness in Indiana's humid summers. Our RELUXE clinicians recommend Phloretin CF for any combination-skin patient who wants the antioxidant power of CE Ferulic without the richer texture.
