Using this ingredient, the skin appears clear, has fewer impurities and, redness is reduced promoting better cellular regeneration.

2 Sensitive

Tazmania Berry Extract

Ingredient 2 [In] is a Tasmanian Berry Extract. It provides instant relief from itching and soothes burning sensations while reducing redness. Ideal for sensitive skin prone to reactions, can be used as an aftershave or after-sun treatment.

3 Nourishing

Polysaccharide

Ingredient 3 [Hy] is a natural Polysaccharide that enhances the skin barrier in fragile or atopic skin. It captures and redistributes water to the skin while stimulating the synthesis of ceramides and lipids. It is an ideal ingredient for protecting the skin against cold weather and harsh conditions.

4 Redness

Date Seed Extract

Ingredient 4 [Ro] is an extract of dormin from the Date Seed. By acting on α-2 adrenergic receptors, the Ro ingredient stimulates microcirculation, dysfunctional in people with rosacea.

5 Youthfulness

Kakadu Plum Extract

Ingredient 5 [Ox] is a Kakadu Plum Extract and is the world's richest fruit in vitamin C. This ingredient, with its antioxidant properties, helps slow down the appearance of signs of aging, such as wrinkles and fine lines while restoring radiance and uniformity to the complexion.

6 Mattifying

Lemon Myrtle Extract

Ingredient 6 [Se] is extracted from Lemon Myrtle Leaves. This ingredient has a sebum-regulating action, meaning it limits the secretion of sebum by the skin. Skin shine is reduced, resulting in a more matte appearance, tightened pores, and reduced appearance of blackheads.

7 Dark Spots

Dragon Fruit Extract

Ingredient 7 [Ta] is a Pitaya Extract, rich in vitamin C and flavonoids which are antioxidant molecules that brighten the skin by reducing the oxidized form of melanin. It helps diminish the appearance of brown spots caused by skin aging and enhances the skin's radiance in less than 28 days.

8 Firming

Peptide

Ingredient 8 [Fe] is a naturally occurring Lipopeptide in the skin that stimulates collagen and elastin synthesis helping to slow down skin sagging that occurs with age. This ingredient restores a smoother and firmer appearance in just 28 days and reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

9 Hydrating

Hyaluronic Acid

Ingredient 9 offers a higher concentration of Hyaluronic Acid. It can capture 1000 times its weight in water and plays a role in the process of cellular renewal resulting in more hydrated and plump skin. Naturally found in the skin, it helps prevent signs of aging and maintains good hydration.
