    Details

    Created for those days when skin’s had a little too much sun, this French Pharmacy-inspired serum replenishes dry and damaged skin resulting from prolonged or unplanned exposure to UVA and UVB rays.

    Within 48 hours of use, it deeply soothes and rehydrates skin, and helps reduce the inflammatory cascade that causes short-term redness as well as long-term skin damage. Formulated with 96% naturally-sourced ingredients. Vegan, fragrance-free, cruelty-free, and free of silicones.

    Violette's Inspiration: “When the temperature rises and the sun’s strength intensifies, I reach for UV Damage Rescue to help soothe, hydrate and counteract the impact of UV exposure on my skin. In addition to helping thwart the immediate visible symptoms of sunburn (it happens!), this serum works below the surface of your skin to interrupt the inflammatory reaction that leads to skin cell damage and photoaging over time. It’s like a caring ‘I got you’ in a bottle.

      Nice Product - Dry, Reactive Skin

      "My skin feels dry and irritated after cleansing with even the most gentle products. I have used this serum in the evening before my moisturizer and found the my redness and tight, tingling feeling has decreased quite significantly. I will continue to use this as a nightly treatment and may try it under my makeup in the morning as well. Thank you!"

      — Amber A. (5/5)

      A little bottle of happiness!

      "I'm always looking for products for my super sensitive skin and thought I would give this serum a try. I had a TCA chemical peel back in 2001, which went very badly (it was left on far too long and ended up scarring my entire face). As a result, my face is extremely sensitive and gets red and irritated quite often. I was suffering some irritation when my bottle of serum arrived so I started using it right away, only at night with Boum Boum Milk and nothing else. It felt so soothing going on and worked to help calm and correct my skin in just a few days. I am extremely happy to have finally found something to help my poor skin. Thank you Violette!"

      — Crickett (5/5)

      Skin saving serum

      "I have used many serum from the more affordable to luxury brands, the skin rescue serum from Violette FR has by far had the most impact on my sensitive skin to nourish and absorb without a greasy feeling. A small drop of the serum is potent enough to apply all over the face. I have found that applying the serum before the moisturizer cream has kept my skin moisturized throughout the day."

      — Jenn (5/5)

      a little miracle bottle

      "my skin is sensitive, dry to the point of itchy, and consequently, ruddy. this little serum is an enormous hedge against all three. thank you so much"

      — Stacey B. (5/5)

      Good for tret layering

      "I'm not a huge serum fan, but this feels pleasant to use (it's light, non-sticky, and dries down quickly). I use it before applying tret (which I always layer) as an extra guard against irritation and to keep my barrier happy."

      — Naomi W. (5/5)

      Fresh and comfortable feeling

      "Super comfortable on the skin, it doesn't drip down on the face, it doesn't leave a sticky sense on the skin. It makes my skin fresh and firm."
