Ingredients:
aqua: Distilled water
hamamelis extract: AKA witch hazel.
Anti-inflammatory, wound healing, anti-itching, softening, with emollient
properties that soothe irritated skin. From the leaves and bark of the
plant.
L-sodium hyaluronate: Hyaluronic acid in chiral
form. A mucopoly fructose from honey. This powerful humectant draws water
from the ambient air and protects the cell from rapid dehydration. This
amino sugar is a component of hyaluronic acid, one of the glycosaminoglycans
(polysaccharide chains) that make up the extra cellular matrix (ground
substance) of the dermis which contains elastin and collagen. These
compounds bind water and are involved in the maintenance of the water and
salt balance of the skin and keep the epidermis in tighter alignment with
the dermis. From Chinese Foxglove, grain and lichen.
Hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin: Botanical starch
to improve firmness of the skin.
Glycerin: A humectant and emollient from plants. It
absorbs moisture from the air, and helps keep moisture in creams and other
products.
Algae extract: Helps skin maintain its youthful
appearance by inhibiting the formation of the enzyme collagenase, which
causes the degradation of collagen.
Resveratrol: Powerful antioxidant from wine.
Gotu kola extract: AKA hydrocotyl or Indian
pennywort, also called the "longevity plant" due to its ability to speed
cellular renewal. From India.
Retinol: Vitamin A carotenoids with antioxidant and
skin renewing properties.
Tocotrienols (D-gamma, D-alpha): Powerful
antioxidants.
L-proline: A left-handed amino acid that improves
the strength of the cell-envelope while keeping it elastic.
Copper: Addresses the visible signs of aging.
Copper promotes collagen and elastin production to revive dull, lifeless
skin, and remedy fine lines and wrinkles, and restore moisture and firmness
to the skin.
D-beta-glucosamine: This amino sugar is a component
of hyaluronic acid, one of the glycosaminoglycans (polysaccharide chains)
that make up the extra cellular matrix (ground substance) of the dermis
which contains elastin and collagen. These compounds bind water and are
involved in the maintenance of the water and salt balance of the skin and
keep the epidermis in tighter alignment with the dermis. From Chinese
Foxglove, grain and lichen.
L-superoxide dismutase: Helps prevent oxidative
damage to the skin. Chirally correct unique anti-oxidant enzyme that
combines with trace mineral selenium, found in the skin. Together they turn
free radicals into harmless alcohol. Derived from saccharomyces cereveseae.
Green tea heart (epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG):
An powerful antioxidant.
L-glutathione: A glutamine-cysteine peptide from
purslane and spinach. Left-handed for greater protection of membrane lipids
from free radicals.
Lavender essential oil: Balancing, energizing,
soothing, healing, and stimulating.
Neroli essential oil: Neroli oil is suitable for
the care of every skin type including sensitive and inflamed skin. It
supports the skin’s renewal process of shedding old skin and stimulating new
cell growth. From the orange blossom.
Xanthan gum: AKA cornstarch gum. Serves as a
texturizer, carrier agent, and gelling agent. Also stabilizes and thickens
formulations.
Ethanol: Ordinary alcohol used medicinally as a
topical antiseptic, astringent, and antibacterial. Obtained from grain
distillation.
