Nutrient-rich botanicals are carried in a vibrational hydro-distillation of local Lavender where the four elements of fire, water, earth, and air come together in an alchemical dance. A process said to capture the ancient intelligence and memories of the plants used.
An exquisite organic Jasmine extract that’s free of solvents such as hexane which is commonly used to make absolutes. Working in harmony with the other herbal extracts to clarify and even out skin tone. On an emotional level, it supports the nervous system to reduce stress.
Tamarind Seed Extract (TSE) has shown parallels with Hyaluronic Acid (HA) to effectively hydrate and visibly plump and soften. TSE is sustainably harvested and gives additional life to seeds that would otherwise be discarded. Abundant in a special class of polysaccharides (long sugar molecules) called xyoglucans. This compound binds water molecules to the skin in a gentle, bioavailable process.
Oats soothe irritated, sensitive skin and can increase moisture when paired with other humectants like TSE.
Nettles, Lemon Balm, Elder Flower, and Plantain provide a menagerie of rich nutrients and minerals including Vitamins B and C, iron, copper, manganese, silicium, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, and manganese, as well it contains bioflavonoids, saponins, phenolic and caffeic acids, alkaloids and tannins.
- Minerals maintain regular skin functions such as lipid production and cellular turnover.
- Bioflavonoids/Phenolic compounds like ursolic acid and quercetin have an inhibitory effect on elastase and collagenase activities. In short, slowing down the enzymes that cause a breakdown of nutrients like Vitamin C and peptide bonds of collagen - thus helping to strengthen the elasticity of the skin.
- Saponins clarify the skin by accelerating biological activities including anti-bacterial, anti-viral, antioxidation, and anti-inflammatory.
Wild Pansy flower essence, also called Heart's Ease, uplifts the heart and strengthens our emotional intelligence from the heaviness of the world.
Hydrate: Mist the face generously to saturate the skin. Follow up with a facial oil and/or balm of choice to seal in the hydration.
Cleanse: For a very mild cleanse when not removing makeup or sunscreen (such as in the morning), mist a cotton round or cloth and sweep the face. This is a great option for those with a more sensitive lipid barrier that causes extreme dryness. When removing makeup and/or sunscreen, using the Nourishing Cleansing Oil at night is a good option.
