The ingredients behind this formula—and what they bring to your skin.
Thioctic Acid
Also called alpha lipoic acid, an antioxidant that helps defend against the visible effects of environmental stress.
Astaxanthin
An algae-derived antioxidant that also gives the serum its warm colour.
Niacinamide
A form of vitamin B3 that helps skin hold on to moisture and look more even.
Ingredient imagery is illustrative. Explore the full ingredient list below.
Made to work together
Pair with a gentle cleanser and a comforting moisturizer. In the evening, it can be used before a retinoid such as AlphaRet once your skin is used to both.

Worth knowing
A closer look at your skin, your routine and what goes into the formula.
Skinbetter Science Mystro Active Balance Serum is a daily facial serum for skin that seems to have a little of everything going on. It helps improve the look of redness associated with dryness, rough texture, visible pores, dullness and uneven tone.
At its heart is P.A.T.H. Technology, short for Plant Adaptogens Targeting Homeostasis, a proprietary blend of botanicals chosen to support the skin's natural balance. Alpha lipoic acid, astaxanthin and ergothioneine bring antioxidant care, while niacinamide, hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and squalane help the skin hold on to moisture.
The result is skin that looks calmer, smoother and more luminous with consistent use. Non-comedogenic and formulated without parabens or fragrance, in an airless pump that protects the formula.
Many clients come to us with several concerns at once and a routine that has become too complicated. Mystro brings balance back in a single, elegant step. Its soft, peachy-gold texture absorbs beautifully and layers well under moisturizer. We like it for anyone who wants their skin to simply look calmer, smoother and more even.
Redness-prone, dull or uneven skin
Warm the serum between your fingertips and press it gently over redness-prone areas before massaging outward, for an even, comfortable application.

No. It relies on plant adaptogens, antioxidants and moisturizing ingredients, and contains no retinoid.
P.A.T.H. stands for Plant Adaptogens Targeting Homeostasis, a proprietary blend of botanicals chosen to support the skin's natural balance.
Active Balance focuses on visible redness, texture, dullness and uneven tone. Mystro Revive is richer and made for dry skin showing visible changes during perimenopause and menopause.
The warm colour comes naturally from astaxanthin, an algae-derived antioxidant. Blend it well along the hairline and brows.
Most skin benefits from one. Apply Mystro first, let it absorb, then follow with moisturizer.
