Inside the Formulation
Every RATIONALE Formulation is crafted with the highest quality of ingredients, formulated into three key Complexes.
The Research
Bioactive vitamins, minerals, enzymes and proteins constitute the skin’s own powerful antioxidant network.
Daily exposure to sunlight and pollution generates damaging Advanced Glycation End-products (AGEs) and harmful free radicals, resulting in premature ageing of the skin.
Topical supplementation boosts the skin’s antioxidant and anti-glycation defences, diminished throughout life due to ageing, solar and environmental damage. A novel ceramic microparticle shield enhances skin’s defences against pollution and other environmental aggressors.

Frequently Asked Questions
#2 The Brightening Hydragel is suitable for all clients. However, clients with sensitised skin or those in hot, humid climates may find it ideal to incorporate the cooling, soothing gel formulation into their Essential Six rituals. For clients new to RATIONALE or active skincare, this may serve as a suitable stepping stone in establishing their RATIONALE Ritual.
#2 The Brightening Hydragel offers a waterlight alternative for those clients seeking the benefits of multi-vitamins and vitamin c, while supporting hydration. While suitable on its own, it can be layered over #2 The Brightening Serum or under #2 The Brightening Light Crème for boosted benefits and deep hydration.
Vitamins A, C, and E, improve the visible appearance of hyperpigmentation to even skin tone, while enhancing natural moisturising factors. Additionally, anti-glycation actives restore a visibly firm complexion by protecting collagen and elastin.
#2 The Brightening Hydragel is suitable for those experiencing visible signs associated with eczema, dermatitis, and rosacea, such as redness, dehydration, and irritation.
The main differences between #1 The Strengthening Hydragel and #2 The Brightening Hydragel lie in their ingredients and functions. #1 The Strengthening Hydragel supports skin barrier defence with a Complex of B-Group Vitamins, while #2 The Brightening Hydragel defends skin from oxidative stress with the power of antioxidants, including Vitamin C, anti-glycation actives, and 3D Ceramic Shield Technology.
#2 The Brightening Hydragel is applied in the AM following your serums and before applying crèmes and SPF.
A serum is primarily water-based, offering a light consistency and quick delivery. On the other hand, hydragels, while lightweight, contain a combination of water and oil, resulting in a slower, consistent delivery that supports hydration.
