Clark’s Botanicals Jasmine Vital Cream

Nourishing gel-cream for skin that tends toward redness  / 1.7 fl oz 

Clark’s Botanicals Jasmine Vital Cream is a lightweight gel-cream that absorbs instantly to soothe, revitalize, and gently clarify for dewy, plumped-up, petal-soft skin.

Designed as a serum-moisturizer hybrid, we think it truly shines on sensitive skin types craving soothing, hydrating treatments. It has the highest concentration of Clark’s Botanicals’ Jasmine Catalyst complex of all the products in the lineup, which could explain why the brand’s founder, Francesco, describes the smell as “White Lotus, Season 3: there’s neroli from Sicily, jasmine from Tuscany, and everything else that’s from the US.”

The jasmine, in particular, is a point of pride for Francesco; he explained to us, “Our jasmine extract is from night blooming jasmine, which releases an enzyme that makes the petals close as the sun comes up. It’s great for people with acne-prone skin, and it helps with collagen synthesis, too.” The Jasmine Catalyst complex also features time-released arnica montana to help with redness, time-released niacinamide to help even skin’s texture, and micronized red algae to plump and hydrate. While the Jasmine Catalyst complex contains a natural fragrance from the jasmine extract, our tester (who typically avoids fragranced products) was pleasantly surprised that it left her skin feeling deeply soothed.

It’s all blended into an addictively silky gel-cream that soaks into skin like coconut water for a velvety finish and a plumped-up glow. Jasmine Vital Cream can be used on its own as a moisturizer for oily and combination-oily skin types, or paired with another product for a perfectly personalized hydrating-moisturizing concoction. 

Our resident redness-prone tester used it over the Sea Serum and loved that combination; we also love it underneath the Clark’s Botanicals Deep Moisture Mask. If you’re not sure how to mix and match with the product on your shelf, just send us an email or give us a call.

If your skin tends towards redness, doesn’t love heavy product textures, and wouldn’t mind a little support while aging (the Jasmine Vital Cream is clinically proven to reduce wrinkle depth by 36% in the first 3 weeks of use), we think you might love it — particularly in warmer, more humid climates.
