WHERE SKIN RENEWAL BEGINS.

The 2.1 - Renewal Fluid is a beginner retinol serum formulated with 0.5% retinol and 10% azelaic acid. Designed to support the skin’s natural cellular turnover process, this formula helps renew the skin while targeting multiple concerns at once - including breakouts, pigmentation, uneven texture, congestion, dullness, and signs of ageing.

Retinol is one of the most studied ingredients in skincare and is known for its ability to support skin renewal and long-term skin health. Azelaic acid works alongside it to help calm inflammation, support breakouts and pigmentation, and improve overall skin clarity.

The 2.1 - Renewal Fluid forms part of the Smash Set - our simplified skincare system designed to work together and support long-term skin balance.

Even if you have used retinol before, we still recommend starting with 2.1, as different retinol formulations behave differently on the skin. Once you have completed a full bottle and your skin is tolerating it well, you can move over to the 2.2 - Renewal Fluid.

Not pregnancy safe. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding (or very sensitive), we recommend using the 2.3 - Renewal Fluid | Preggy instead.
