The celebrity-loved beauty brand Merit is following up its Great Skin Instant Glow Serum, with the debut of its new Great Skin Moisturizer.
Officially available as of August 22, the new Great Skin Moisturizer is a clinically-proven skincare formula that delivers "immediate and long term hydration and barrier benefits," according to a recent press release. But unlike other moisturizers on the market, what makes Merit's Great Skin Moisturizer so unique is that it's made from food waste, specifically a byproduct of arctic microalgae growing in Iceland. This unique blend of ingredients helps to not only hydrate the skin, but also prevent transepidermal water loss, ensuring you experience both immediate and long-term benefits.
The new Great Skin Moisturizer can be purchased online from Merit's website starting August 22.
