FORMULA HIGHLIGHTS
Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract — An antioxidant that hydrates, soothes, and conditions the skin while regenerating tissue. It is photoprotective, stimulates the immune system, and boosts collagen synthesis; aloe also contains antiviral properties, antiseptic saponins, and anti-inflammatory enzymes. It is incredibly nutrient-rich with 75 active compounds, including vitamins A, C, E, B12, folic acid, potassium, fatty acids, and more.
Anthemis Nobilis Flower Extract (Roman Chamomile) — A botanical antioxidant with medicinal properties. Chamomile is an ancient herb that quickly permeates the skin, used to soothe internal and external ailments. Topically, it has been used to treat wounds, eczema, and dermatitis. The extract contains over 120 biocompatible compounds, including antioxidant phenolic flavonoids and terpenoids. Two terpenoids, a-bisabolol and azulene, are anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antibiotic.
Allantoin — Naturally found in the body, allantoin is mildly keratolytic (breaks down keratin) and encourages desquamation and cell regeneration. Allantoin locks moisture into the extracellular matrix, accelerates healing, and reduces hypersensitivity, making it ideal for distressed skin. It is found in plants like chamomile and treats dry skin, burns, acne, eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, and allergies. It also absorbs the UV spectrum, protecting cell DNA.
Panthenol — A humectant and emulsifier that balances oil production and inhibits the proliferation of skin microbes. Panthenol aids in tissue repair, collagen production, barrier function, and the synthesis and metabolism of lipids. It is converted to pantothenic acid, which is naturally found in skin and hair, and required for normal epithelial function.
PCA (Pyrrolidone Carboxylic Acid) — Part of the skin’s natural moisturizing factor, PCA increases hydration and suppleness. It is a hygroscopic humectant that pulls moisture from the environment into the superficial epidermis.
