Use: Shake prior to use on face/neck/chest (5.6 oz.)
Peach extract: powerful, natural face food packed with vitamins, minerals, & essential fatty acids
Aloe: soothes burns/irritation, heals wounds, treats acne, moisturizes, and delays aging.
Caprylic acid/oil: medium chain fatty acid that contains antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal properties
Pantothenic acid (B5): reduces itching, redness and suppresses inflammation. Thanks to its soothing and repairing properties, Vitamin B5 also helps relieve inflamed acne & irritated/peeling skin. Vitamin B5 binds to and holds water in the skin, moisturizing and leaving it soft, smooth, and more supple. It also has anti-inflammatory properties and is involved in activating the proliferation of cells that are important for wound healing and restoring the function of the skin barrier.
Niacinamide (B3): excellent for sensitive skin and rosacea or eczema, reduces premature fine lines/aging, repairs damaged skin barrier, reduces skin redness, reduces hyperpigmentation, improves synthesis of fatty acids, and provides brightening. Extensive research has shown niacinamide works to protect skin from environmental damage and also helps skin make more collagen and hyaluronic acid while improving hydration,.
Madecassoside: Centella asiatica is beneficial if you have sensitive skin or suffer from redness, irritation, or dehydration. First, the astringent properties of the tannins directly reduce inflammation by reducing swelling to control pain, redness, and itching. It has potent antioxidant properties and is a rich source of amino acids, and there’s additional research showing that it’s a potent hydrating ingredient to soothe compromised skin. Madecassoside helps with preventing hyperpigmentation and as well as hypertrophic scarring, which is any raised texture on the skin thus improving texture and tone while soothing the skin.
Hyaluronic acid: functions to retain hydration, keeping your skin lubricated/moist promoting more supple skin, reducing fine lines while soothing redness and dermatitis.
Peptides: demonstrate remarkable benefits, revitalizing your skin and making it more resilient, stronger, & smooth. Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as building blocks of proteins such as collagen, elastin and keratin. These proteins are the foundations of your skin and are responsible for its texture, strength and resilience. Without peptides, our skin is less intact which can lead to a loss of firmness, the appearance of wrinkles, a change in texture and less ‘bounce’.
Yam: filled with steroid saponins & diosgenin which are basically naturally occurring molecules in plants. They’re structurally and functionally diverse. Therapeutic properties, including anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties. Diosgenin has been suggested to enhance DNA synthesis in human skin while restoring skin cells. Diosgenin is also believed to be effective as a depigmenting agent in the skin, helping to protect against some serious skin health issues that can arise from sun damage.
Glycerin: great for the skin because it acts as a humectant, which is a substance that allows the skin to retain moisture. It can increase skin hydration, relieve dryness, and refresh the skin's surface. It's also an emollient thus softens skin.
Grapefruit essential oil: citrus essential oil has a refreshing scent and potent antibacterial and antioxidant activity.
