Formulated for red light routines

Skincare, designed
around the light.

Three serums built to work with a red light panel, not against it. Clean enough that the light gets through. Loaded with the ingredients your skin and cells can actually use.

03 · Why it works with the light

The light activates your cells. We supply the fuel.

Six ingredient families that feed the same cellular pathway red light turns on. Each one has published research behind it, and a specific job when photons arrive.

Read the full mechanism →
01Peptides

GHK-Cu (copper tripeptide)

Tells your skin's cells to make more collagen and elastin. Thirty years of published research, and one of the most-studied actives in aesthetic dermatology.

Why it pairs with RLT

The panel gives your cells the energy to repair. GHK-Cu gives them the instructions.

Pickart & Margolina, Int. J. Mol. Sci., 2018

02Mitochondrial antioxidants

Ergothioneine (from Tremella mushroom)

A rare antioxidant that gets inside your mitochondria, where most other antioxidants can't reach.

Why it pairs with RLT

Red light ramps up your cells' energy output. Ergothioneine protects them from the byproducts that come with it.

Cheah & Halliwell, Biochim. Biophys. Acta, 2012

03Cellular energy support

CoQ10 (Ubiquinone)

The molecule your cells use to make energy. Every cell in your body has it; levels drop with age. Topical CoQ10 helps skin cells keep up.

Why it pairs with RLT

Red light activates the engine. CoQ10 is the fuel that keeps it running. Without enough of it, your panel session does less work.

Knott et al., BioFactors, 2015

04Adaptogenic mushrooms

Cordyceps militaris

A traditional Chinese medicine mushroom studied for its effect on cellular energy production and circulation.

Why it pairs with RLT

Supports the same energy pathway red light stimulates, reinforcement from a different angle.

Ng & Wang, J. Pharm. Pharmacol., 2005

05Deep hydration

Tremella polysaccharide

Holds 500× its weight in water. A smaller molecule than hyaluronic acid, so it reaches deeper into the skin.

Why it pairs with RLT

Hydrated skin lets red light pass through evenly. Dry skin scatters the photons before they reach the cells.

Wen et al., Int. J. Biol. Macromol., 2016

06Longevity polyphenols

Pterostilbene

A cousin of resveratrol that your body absorbs 4× better. Activates the same anti-aging pathway targeted by caloric restriction.

Why it pairs with RLT

Red light and pterostilbene both activate your cells' anti-aging machinery, from different angles. Stacking them is greater than the sum.

McCormack & McFadden, Oxid. Med. Cell. Longev., 2013

04 · The evening routine · Four steps

A skincare routine that works with your light.

Twenty minutes before bed. Cleanse, Evening serum, Radiance, then your red light panel. Each step sets up the next so the panel lands on skin that's already prepped, not on oils or residue that block the light.

Step 019:30 PM
Purity Facial Cleanser
Purity

Cleanse

A pH-balanced cleanse that clears makeup and grime without stripping your skin's barrier. Clean skin lets the next step absorb properly.

Step 029:40 PM
Evening Serum
Evening serum

Repair

Two drops, pressed in, not rubbed. Evening's peptides (GHK-Cu, Matrixyl) feed the 10 PM–4 AM window, when your body does most of its collagen work.

Step 039:45 PM
Radiance Serum
Radiance

Prime

Optional final layer over Evening. CoQ10 and pterostilbene compound with the panel by feeding the same mitochondrial pathway it activates.

Step 049:50 PM
Red light · optional

Light

10 minutes at your panel's recommended distance. The light activates the repair machinery the serums just fed. The panel and the serums amplify each other.

05 · What we stand behind

Four commitments, on the record.

  • Research-first

    Every active appears at the percentage used in its cited research, not at the minimum that lets us put it on the label.

    See each active's source paper
  • Third-party lab tested

    Every batch is tested for identity, potency, heavy metals, and microbial load at an independent lab.

    Request the latest batch assay
  • No synthetic fragrance

    No synthetic fragrance, no masking agents, no filler oils. Zero dyes. Zero ingredients added to improve in-hand feel at the expense of penetration.

  • Open methodology

    We publish the logic behind every formulation choice, and will publish our own clinical work the same way, including results that don't go our way.

Yes, if you sequence them. Retinoids (tretinoin, retinol) belong in your PM routine and pair best with Evening (the peptides are complementary, not redundant; no pH conflicts). AHAs/BHAs should wash off before any Sevo application so acid-stripping doesn't disrupt peptide activity. Morning is specifically engineered to counter retinoid-induced photosensitivity, astaxanthin and adaptogenic mushrooms buffer oxidative stress from daytime UV. Never use retinoids in the morning.

Start with Evening if you're picking one. Overnight is when collagen synthesis peaks, and Evening's triple-peptide stack (GHK-Cu + Matrixyl 3000 + PAL-150) is the most acute signal in the lineup. Morning adds daytime defense, worth adding if you're sun-exposed or stacking with retinoids at night. Radiance adds a CoQ10 + pterostilbene layer that amplifies a red light session; it's the last of the three to add.

Two ways. First, concentration: our peptides are at the percentages used in published cosmetic research, not at the minimum that lets a brand put the ingredient on the label. GHK-Cu at 1%, Matrixyl 3000 at 5%, PAL-150 at 5%, SNAP-8 at 5%. Most competitors sit under 0.1%. Second, delivery: Evening's GHK-Cu is carried by a multi-stage delivery system we engineered to get more of the peptide past the skin's surface. Most cosmetic GHK-Cu achieves 0.6–2.8% skin retention in published data; ours is engineered to do better.

60-day satisfaction guarantee. Within 60 days of purchase, reply to your order confirmation or write hello@sevoskin.care. We refund to your original payment method within 2 business days. No forms, no return shipping required.

Before. Apply Morning or Evening, then Radiance (optional) as the last layer, then run your panel session. The oil-based Radiance stays optically transparent at 633/660/810 nm so the light reaches the dermis without being scattered. 10 minutes at 4–8 inches is typical; follow your device manufacturer's guidance. No need to reapply afterward.

08 · A note from the founder

I started Sevo because I couldn't find a serum to use with my panel.

I bought my first red light panel and read the manual. It said 'use on clean, bare skin.' I asked my dermatologist why. She didn't know. The panel manufacturer didn't either, cautionary language, not a finding.

So I looked at what a serum actually does to the light. Oils and silicones scatter it. Heavy mineral sunscreens block most of it. A lot of what sits on your skin during a session is reducing the dose your cells ever see. I'd been spending twenty expensive minutes a day lighting up filler.

Sevo is what I built for myself. Three serums that don't block the wavelengths your panel emits, formulated with ingredients chosen for how they behave under the beam, and every active picked to feed the same mitochondrial pathway the light activates.
