Bubble Skincare debuts exfoliating serum for sensitive skin

Teenage skin-focused skincare brand Bubble Skincare unveiled Moonwalk Gentle Exfoliating Serum, designed for those with sensitive skin.

In pursuit of a revitalized complexion, the serum features a 7% exfoliating formula comprising lactic, glycolic, azelaic, and maleic acids. These acids actively dissolve the bond between dead cells and the skin, according to Bubble Skincare.

The brand also infused the serum with a blend of fruit extracts, including pomegranate, licorice root, turmeric, pumpkin, and prickly pear and pumpkin seed extracts.

According to the company, these extracts not only brighten the skin but also serve to counteract any potential irritation from the exfoliating process.

Moonwalk Serum is now exclusively available for purchase at Ulta for $17.

Bubble Skincare launches hydration-boosting serum

Bubble Skincare also introduced Water Slide, a hydration-boosting serum featuring a blend that protects the skin's barrier.

Designed to complement the newly released Moonwalk Gentle Exfoliating Serum, this product combines niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, squalane, and prickly pear extract to provide deep hydration and soothe dry, irritated skin.

Additionally, saccharide isomerate is included to preserve the skin's natural moisture barrier, while glycerin works to maintain optimal hydration levels.

The $17 Water Slide Serum is also exclusively available at Ulta.
