ChitoCare - Anti-Aging Repair Serum 30ml

ChitoCare Anti-Aging Repair Serum 30ml

ChitoCare Anti-Aging Repair Serum is a lightweight bioactive serum built around ChitoCare Repair®, the brand’s patented complex of pharmaceutical-grade Icelandic marine chitosan. It supports a stronger-looking skin barrier, locks in moisture and visibly improves firmness, elasticity and hydration. It does this without the irritation some people get from retinol or unstable vitamin C.

If you are looking for a barrier repair serum for sensitive, redness-prone, perimenopausal or post-treatment skin, this is a gentle, stable choice that layers under any routine. It also boosts the performance of the rest of your skincare.

Frequently asked questions

What is chitosan?

Chitosan is a natural biopolymer made from chitin. ChitoCare uses a pharmaceutical-grade marine chitosan produced in Iceland. It forms a breathable film on the skin that helps hold in moisture and supports the look of a healthy barrier.

Is it suitable for rosacea or eczema-prone skin?

ChitoCare designed it to be non-irritating for sensitive, rosacea-prone and eczema-prone skin. It is a cosmetic, not a treatment for skin conditions. If you have a diagnosed condition, check with your clinician.

I have a shellfish allergy. Can I use it?

Marine chitosan is derived from crustacean (shellfish) shells. If you have a shellfish allergy, speak to your GP or pharmacist before use, and patch-test.

Can I use it with retinol or acids?

Yes. Its barrier-supporting, hydrating formula is often used to buffer stronger actives. Apply the serum first, then your other products.

Is it genuine?

Yes. We source ChitoCare through its official UK distribution.
