Application: After cleansing, before moisturizer
Best for: Visible redness, reactivity and skin discomfort
When your skin would rather you kept things calm.
If your cheeks look flushed and your usual routine suddenly feels like too much, adding another exfoliant is unlikely to be the answer. Functionalab Redness Reducer is a soothing serum designed for the appearance of redness and the comfort of reactive skin.
It combines peptide technology with essential fatty acids to support a gentler, moisture-focused routine. Tell us whether redness is occasional or persistent, and whether anything stings when you apply it. Those details help us decide if a skincare adjustment is enough or if your skin needs an assessment.

A few helpful things to know about this product:
- Focuses on the appearance of redness and skin comfort.
- Includes nourishing fatty acids alongside peptide technology.
- Can be followed with a lipid-replenishing moisturizer.
- A cosmetic support step, not a substitute for a rosacea or eczema diagnosis and treatment plan.
Notable skin care ingredients:
Neuropeptide complex: Functionalab highlights a 3.3% complex for visible redness and skin comfort.
Essential fatty acids: A 2.5% complex helps support moisture and suppleness.
Moisturizing base: Helps the serum fit into a routine centred on comfortable skin.
These are selected ingredient highlights. Check your own packaging for the current full ingredient list, directions and any ingredients you need to avoid.
How to use Functionalab Redness Reducer
- Apply to clean skin over the face.
- Follow with a suitable moisturizer such as Pre/Post-Treatment 2.
- Use sunscreen during the day.
After IPL, vascular laser or another procedure, use only the products and timing recommended by your treating provider.
Clinical studies and supplier testing:
The supplier describes a two-month, twice-daily study, with an average participant age of 46. Its graphic reports an 11% reduction in visible redness and 28% greater superficial hydration. Those are manufacturer-reported outcomes for the tested routine, not a guarantee or evidence that the serum cures a medical skin condition.

Frequently asked questions
Click a question to read the answer.
Does Redness Reducer cure rosacea?
No. It is a skincare serum for visible redness and comfort. Rosacea is a medical condition that may need a separate treatment plan.
Should I use an exfoliant at the same time?
If your skin is reactive, it is worth reviewing exfoliation before adding more products. Tell us what acids, scrubs or retinoids you currently use.
Can I put moisturizer over it?
Yes. Apply the serum first, then your moisturizer. Pre/Post-Treatment 2 is a pairing suggested by Functionalab.
Can I use it straight after a laser treatment?
Follow the aftercare plan for your specific treatment. Contact us before restarting it if the timing has not been discussed.
