A potent antioxidant serum that strengthens the skin’s barrier, fights environmental damage, and smooths the visible signs of premature aging.

We love Daily Power Defense for its multi-tasking ability—it delivers rich antioxidant protection, hydration, and helps minimize aging signs without feeling heavy. It’s especially great if you want a serum that pulls double duty: defense and repair. Skin looks stronger, more even, and radiant over time.

ZO Daily Power Defense is an advanced lightweight serum formulated to protect against free radical damage, support skin barrier repair, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Using a blend of plant stem cells, enzymes, and powerful antioxidants (including Vitamins A & E), it delivers both hydration and environmental protection. The formula also includes exclusive technologies like ZO-RRS2® and ZPOLY™ to soothe redness, infuse extended moisture, and encourage overall skin health. With consistent use, skin looks firmer, more radiant, and resilient against daily stressors.

Apply to clean, dry skin both morning and evening. Use 1-2 pumps over face and neck before moisturizer or any heavier treatment. Always follow with broad-spectrum sunscreen in the daytime when using this product.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I use ZO Daily Power Defense in the morning or night?
Use ZO Daily Power Defense in the morning as part of your daytime routine. It is a potent antioxidant serum designed to protect skin from daily environmental stressors, so applying it in the morning helps neutralize free radicals encountered during the day. The formula also strengthens the skin barrier, which supports resilience against pollution and irritation, and its lightweight serum texture layers well under moisturizers and sunscreen. People who benefit most are those concerned with premature aging, daily environmental damage, or weakened barrier function. As a limitation, Daily Power Defense is not a substitute for sunscreen, so follow with a broad-spectrum SPF for full daytime protection.
Is Daily Power Defense worth the money?
Yes, Daily Power Defense can be worth the investment for people prioritizing antioxidant protection and barrier repair. The serum is formulated to deliver concentrated antioxidant activity that helps fight environmental damage, strengthen the skin’s barrier, and smooth visible signs of premature aging. It is suitable for a range of skin types, including normal, combination, dry, and sensitive skin, which increases its versatility in a routine. Those who benefit most are shoppers looking for a targeted serum to complement sunscreen and moisturizers. As a caveat, if your skin concerns are limited to basic hydration, a simpler moisturizer may suffice; consider your specific goals and consult a skincare professional for tailored recommendations.
Is ZO Daily Power Defense good for sensitive skin?
Yes, ZO Daily Power Defense is formulated to be suitable for sensitive skin. The product description lists sensitive as a compatible skin type and highlights barrier-strengthening antioxidant activity, which can reduce sensitivity by improving skin resilience. Its serum texture allows for concentrated actives without heavy occlusion, and many users find barrier-focused antioxidants less irritating than harsher exfoliants. People who benefit most are those with reactive or easily irritated skin who want protection against environmental stress and visible aging. For safety, perform a patch test before full-face use and consult a dermatologist if you are on prescription topical treatments or have severe skin conditions.
How long does it take to see results with ZO Daily Power Defense?
You may notice initial improvements in skin texture and hydration within two to four weeks of consistent daily use, with more noticeable smoothing of fine lines and reduction in environmental damage over eight to twelve weeks. This timeline reflects how antioxidant and barrier-repair ingredients typically work: barrier resilience and reduced irritation often appear sooner, while visible changes in texture, tone, and signs of premature aging require longer, consistent application. People with mild concerns may see faster benefits, while those with deeper discoloration or advanced aging will need more time and possibly adjunctive treatments. Results vary by individual skin condition, frequency of use, and concurrent skincare products.
Can I layer ZO Daily Power Defense with other active skincare ingredients?
Yes, ZO Daily Power Defense can be layered with many other active skincare ingredients, but follow standard layering and safety guidelines. As an antioxidant serum, it pairs well under moisturizers and sunscreen and can complement morning vitamin C or evening retinoid routines when scheduled appropriately. It helps strengthen the skin barrier, which can improve tolerance to other actives. Those who benefit most are users with multi-step regimens seeking added environmental protection. As a precaution, introduce new actives one at a time, patch test combinations, and consult a dermatologist before combining with strong acids or prescription-strength retinoids to avoid irritation and ensure compatibility.
