| Verdict | Fragrance-free BioCalm serum with beta-glucan and centella. Sensitive-skin mainstay of Scandinavian pharmacies. | Verso's Hydration Serum (No. 6) is the Swedish minimalist's HA serum with a clever twist: Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (Verso's signature 'Retinol 8' — a retinol ester that's gentler than classic retinol) sits in the INCI alongside sodium hyaluronate and niacinamide. Hydration with a starter retinoid in one bottle. €100 for Swedish minimalist DNA + clinical actives. |
