Aloe
– a plant extract known for its healing, soothing and
sun-screening properties.
Allantoin
– A natural healing agent.
Alpha-Hydroxy Acids
- A group of naturally
occurring fruit acids that help dissolve and slough away dry, lined
surface skin.
Ceramides – A natural structural ingredient in the cell membrane that maintains moisture levels and helps prevent moisture loss to protect against dryness and thinning.
Chamomile
– A plant extract known for its soothing properties.
Collagen
– The major structural protein of the skin and body.
It is the primary substance responsible for imparting
elasticity to the skin.
Conjugated Polypeptides/Rivitalin
– Proteins that aid in the revitalizing of skin cells thereby improving the overall appearance of the skin.
Elastin –
The elastic fibers found between the collagen fibers, responsible
for the firmness of skin.
Glycogen – The body’s energy source, it is the biological antidote to fatigue. The way glycogen is stored in the skin reflects its potential as an
energy source which may aid in the prevention of the appearance of fatigued skin.
Hema
– The component of blood which carries oxygen.
In skin care it is an ingredient used to transport oxygen to
skin cells therefore enhancing their vibrancy.
Liposome
– A liposome is a carrier of ingredients used to deliver those
ingredients past the skin surface into the lower layers to allow the
ingredients to better benefit the skin.
Deproteinated Yeast/Invertase Enzymes – Biological cleansing agents that seek oils and grime lodged in the pores of skin.
Disodium EDTA – Water conditioner that aids in the control of product stability.
Moisture Occlusivity – The retention of moisture (water) on the surface of the skin. A proper moisture balance will prevent moisture loss from within the skin therefore eliminating any cellular dehydration.
Peptides – Mother Nature’s secret to healthy, smooth, firm skin. They are the building blocks of proteins which make up skin’s structure and are responsible for normal cell function.
Pro-Vitamin B – Panthenol – Helps the skin repair itself to help reduce the signs of premature aging. Also, moisturizes and helps promote a firm, even skin tone.
Sodium Hyaluronate –
A naturally occurring substance commonly found between skin cells,
it serves as a protective coating around the collagen fibers.
As skin ages, hyaluronic acid must be replenished to help
skin hold vital moisture thereby preventing weakened fibers
(wrinkles, loss of elasticity).
It holds moisture on the skin’s surface while allowing the
skin to breathe. It is
a state-of-the-art ingredient.
Vitamin E Acetate
– Known as the “protector”, it defends body cells and tissues from the damage caused by free radical which are generated by natural body processes and environmental stresses. It helps enhance the performance of UV blockers in suncare formulations to lessen premature aging.
Vitamin E Alcohol – Another powerful free radical fighter, it functions as an antioxidant and helps reduce the formulation of harmful toxins.
Vitamin E – Tocopheryl Linoleate – A vital and long-lasting moisturizer that works within the stratum comeum to help preserve and repair skin’s moisture barrier.
Vitamin A – Retinol Palmitate
– Essential for normal skin function and development, it also helps prevent dryness, increases elasticity, and helps to reverse the signs of photodamage such as brown spots.
Vitamin C – A powerful antioxidant that helps to protect the skin from the effects of chronological and photo aging. Helps protect against UV radiation and stimulates collagen production for firmer, smoother skin.
Witch Hazel – A plant extract that exhibits astringent, soothing properties.
