The Benefits of Blending Oils and Creams: Why We Created a Hybrid Formula

At Lenox & Sixteenth, we believe skincare should be powerful, nourishing, and effortless. That’s why we created a cream-serum hybrid—a formula that combines the potency of a serum with the deep hydration of a cream. Inspired by the professional skincare techniques we use in the treatment room, this hybrid approach allows us to deliver brightening, firming, and protective benefits in one simple step.

Why Blend Oils and Creams?

Traditional skincare routines often separate treatment serums from moisturizing creams, requiring multiple steps to achieve the perfect balance of correction and hydration. We saw an opportunity to streamline this process without compromising effectiveness.

By blending high-performance actives with deeply nourishing emollients, we created a formula that delivers:

✔ Brightening Power – Two stable forms of Vitamin C help to even skin tone, enhance radiance, and protect against environmental stressors.
✔ Firming & Repairing – Peptides and vegan exosomes work to support collagen production and improve skin elasticity.
✔ Deep Hydration – Squalane and ceramides help lock in moisture, strengthen the skin barrier, and provide lasting nourishment.
✔ A Balanced Finish – Unlike heavy creams or lightweight serums alone, our hybrid texture offers rich hydration with a lightweight feel, making it ideal for all skin types.

The Science Behind the Hybrid Formula

We carefully formulated The Preservationist Vitamin C Cream Serum to bring out the best of both worlds:

• Serum-Like Actives – Fast-absorbing, clinically proven ingredients that work to brighten, firm, and protect the skin.

• Rich, Creamy Hydration – Moisturizing elements like squalane and ceramides provide long-lasting nourishment without feeling heavy.

• Multi-Tasking Versatility – Its creamy yet lightweight texture allows it to double as a daily moisturizer, worn alone with SPF or layered under makeup as a radiant, glowing primer.

A Luxurious Yet Effective Skincare Experience

Skincare should be both results-driven and enjoyable to use. Our hybrid formula melts seamlessly into the skin, delivering an instant glow while working deep beneath the surface to brighten, firm, and hydrate.

At Lenox & Sixteenth, we are redefining skincare by merging science with luxury, making every step of your routine count. The Preservationist Vitamin C Cream Serum is the ultimate go-to for radiance, hydration, and protection—all in one step.

Because your skin deserves both power and nourishment, without the extra steps.
