Inside the Formulation

Every RATIONALE Formulation is crafted with the highest quality of ingredients, formulated into three key Complexes.

The Primary Complex
Plus
Minus

A proprietary Botanical Retinoid Alternative Complex targets hyperpigmentation and signs of environmental damage, while refining texture and visibly firming skin.

What is a Primary Complex? 

Key ingredients that predominantly influence a Formulation.

The Secondary Complex
Plus
Minus

A unique Complex of Signature Actives, rich in DNA Repair Enzymes, supports the skin's innate repair capacity.

What is the Secondary Complex?

Consists of supplementary ingredients that complement the Primary Complex.

The Delivery System
Plus
Minus

Water-Based

What is the Delivery System?

Carries active ingredients into the skin.

The Research

The signs of environmental damage include wrinkles, sagging and pigmentation, and are related to sun exposure and pollution combined with natural ageing.

To a certain extent, human skin has the capacity to self-repair. However, as we age, and as a consequence of environmental damage, these natural restorative processes are diminished.

Topical treatment can assist in restoring and rejuvenating skin, helping to reverse signs of environmental damage to illuminate and refine skin luminosity.

For skin that does not easily tolerate topical Retinoids (Vitamin A), a gentle botanical alternative known as Bakuchiol, when combined with DNA Repair Enzymes, can assist in restoring repair processes, helping to reverse signs of environmental damage, restoring skin firmness and luminosity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a GelCrème?

What makes the GelCrème formula unique to RATIONALE?
Plus
Minus

RATIONALE GelCrèmes act as a gentle hydrator, seamlessly infusing the skin with active ingredients for enhanced effectiveness.

What makes the delivery system of a GelCrème different from Crème?
Plus

The GelCrèmes have a lightweight texture, enabling faster absorption into the skin compared to the heavier texture of traditional crèmes, which are designed to be absorbed more slowly into the skin.

Which skin types are best suited to a gel Formulation?
Plus

Combination skin types can benefit from using a gel Formulation to address both hydration and oil flow simultaneously. If you're new to active ingredients or experiencing redness, RATIONALE’s GelCrèmes can be a gentle introduction that is less likely to cause skin sensitivities.

What is the difference between #5 The GelCrème and #6 The GelCrème?
