Every time we hear about a new Fresh Beauty Product hitting the shelves, the excitement is real; however, when the brand has levering 15 years of research into the skincare benefits of tea, we needed to get the inside scoop of the science behind the new elixir serum. For that, Dr Anne-Laure Bulteau, Fresh’s Skin Biologist, explained to the CF team everything you need to know about this non-so-common tea elixir serum you can find online at Sephora Australia.

Fresh Tea Elixir Skin Resilience Activating Serum
Mauritian Tea Plant and its benefits for the skin
As a brand, we always look for untapped potential in nature and are known for travelling to the ends of the earth to find it, which led us to the small island of Mauritius for our newest product. Here, a plant has adapted its genetic expression to the island’s adverse growing conditions for tea – volcanic soil, tropical climate, and low altitude – for over a century. The tea plant not only survived in that environment but thrived, producing a higher concentration of adaptive phytocompounds than ordinary tea. From there, we were able to capture the tea plant’s resilient properties for our revolutionary new ingredient, APT TechnologyTM .
APT Technology™ is a true fresh discovery and an innovative new skin-activating ingredient. It is proven to be more potent than ordinary tea. It increases a key regulator of the skin’s bioenergetic systems by +44%, providing skin cells with the power to boost the synthesis of fatty acids and essential structural proteins elastin, collagen and fibrillin, so the skin remains smoother with more glow and bounce.
Why did Fresh spend three years refining the formula? What makes it so special?
All fresh’s products are created, formulated, and tested in the fresh research lab in France, but with the Tea Elixir Serum, it took more time to make a brand-new, revolutionary ingredient, like APT TechnologyTM, which needed to be thoroughly researched and tested. As mentioned, we worked on this serum for over three years, and this product is the newest example of how we combine potent natural ingredients and modern science to create innovative skincare solutions.
Fresh Tea Elixir clinical studies
This serum was tested over 1,800 times and is scientifically proven to boost skin resilience and resistance to life stressors. When skin is resilient, it can better protect itself from life stressors that lead to signs of aging, and by boosting the skin’s resilience, your skin can absorb shock, adapt, and protect itself when faced with these stressors and still function at its full potential. Through our testing, we found that with Tea Elixir Serum skin’s overall resilience was visibly boosted by +62%*, +75% smoother texture & visible glow**, +58% more bounce**, along with a -41% reduction in the look of fine lines & wrinkles**and -61% of visible pores**.
*Observed results, clinical study, self-assessment by scoring, 33 subjects, eight weeks, based on an average of smooth, visible lines, look of pores, bounce (plump & elasticity), and glow
**Observed results, self-assessment by scoring, 33 subjects, eight weeks; “bounce” based on an average of plumpness & elasticity
Who can use it?
Tea Elixir Serum was specifically developed to be a universal serum, so regardless of what skin type you have, this serum will boost skin’s overall resilience, and by boosting skin’s resilience, skin can better adapt and protect itself when faced with life stressors, such as lack of sleep, poor diet, or stress, and still function at its full potential.
How to incorporate it?
Tea Elixir Serum gives the best results when used as part of a consistent skincare routine and when daily – both morning and night. I would recommend starting with Soy Face Cleanser to thoroughly clean skin, then use Kombucha Essence, followed by Tea Elixir Serum, and finishing off with your moisturiser of choice to lock everything in. I typically reach for the Rose Deep Hydration Cream or the Black Tea Corset Cream.
Fresh Tea Elixir Skin Resilience Activating Serum Review
I’ve been using the Fresh serum religious morning and night for about three weeks. I tried to stick to it for longer than my usual trial period as I started to see results really quickly, and I was intrigued by how far this emerald green bottle could go.
But first things first, when I received the new Fresh Tea Elixir Skin Resilience Activating Serum, I was obsessed with how luxurious the serum felt on the skin — From the texture to the smell, everything is just divine — It’s milky and lightweight; which make it perfect for combination or oily skin.
The serum comes in two sizes, and I found the large bottle a great option if you want to save some dollars and stick to one serum in your skincare routine.
Has my skin changed in the last three weeks? Actually, since I’ve added this serum into my routine, my skin is more luminous and plumped, my breakouts are under control, and even my post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation has started to blur. I’m almost done with the serum and will definitely re-purchase once I finish it, as I found it a great option to keep my skin barrier healthy while actually treating my skin concerns.
