1% RETINALDEHYDE
A stored form of Vitamin A that enables a prolonged release and low irritation compared to other forms of vitamin A. It is directly converted into retinoic acid in the skin leading to high performance and minimal product waste. Retinaldehyde has been shown to allow new cells to replicate in a healthier state while producing new structural fibres in the dermis while repairing damaged structures, reducing scar tissue and wrinkles. Vitamin A is known to normalise hyperkeratinisation to reduce congestion in acneic and rosacea-prone skins and to positively influence hyperpigmentation through dispersing pigment while normalising melanocyte activity. Damaged vascular networks become less visible as this ingredient aids in compressing distended vessels. The skin becomes more balanced as sebaceous activity is regulated, and the skin's glycosaminoglycans and natural moisturising factors are promoted. This ingredient is a powerhouse in its own right and dramatically changes the skin's functioning for the better.

VITAMIN B3
Niacinamide is a powerhouse ingredient from the B vitamin family. Vitamin B3 works synergistically with other ingredients to aid absorption and promote more effective delivery of actives. It is also a potent soothing agent that activates immune cells of the epidermis (Langerhan Cells) to calm and increase the skin's defensive ability. In addition, niacinamide aids skin barrier repair and regulates sebum production to balance and hydrate. This powerful ingredient promotes a more even complexion to aid in a perfected appearance.

TETRAPEPTIDE-30
A biomimetic peptide that consists of proline, lysine, glutamic acid, and lysine that is active on all kinds of skin types to visibly diminish uneven skin tone and aid skin brightness. Furthermore, it provides a significant soothing effect that aids in reducing acne lesions and alleviates melasma without toxicity or rebound effects.

L-GLUTATHIONE
A tripeptide master antioxidant that is vital in preventing oxidative damage to the skin, promoting its many biological functions. The antioxidant binds to oxidative compounds that damage cell membranes, DNA, and energy production to protect the mitochondria of many cells, including immune cells. This ability increases cellular longevity while strengthening and activating the immunologic function of the skin. Due to the way it works within the skin, is an amazing soothing agent that also aids in evening skin tone.

L-CARNITINE
An amino acid that possesses an exfoliating property to increase skin cell turnover while aiding in the transportation of fatty acids into the mitochondria to assist with cellular energy production.

SQUALANE
A biomimetic lightweight emollient that penetrates deeply to mimic skin’s natural oils and effectively hydrate, offering long-term correction to moisture balance. A natural antioxidant that reduces fine lines and wrinkles for a more vibrant, youthful complexion.

NATURAL MOISTURISING FACTORS
Multi-weighted hyaluronic acid and Sodium PCA binds moisture to multiple layers throughout the skin to plump and firm while assisting with regeneration and reducing Trans-Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL).

ASCORBYL TETRAIOSPALMITATE
A lipophilic and stable vitamin C liquid readily absorbed into the skin, providing added protection and nourishment. It works to increase the cell survival rate in the epidermis by protecting against UV-induced cell damage and lipid peroxidation, two of the most substantial contributors to the aging process. It also has a lightening effect on the skin, aids in the protection against collagen and DNA damage by providing antioxidant support, and promotes collagen synthesis.

WHITE WILLOW EXTRACT
A potent phytonutrient that is a natural analgesic to soothe irritation. It also acts as an effective antioxidant with high saliciln content to aid in clearing acne, enlarged pores, and other concerns to gently refine the skin's texture.

COENZYME Q10
An enzyme that is present in cells which plays an essential role in biological functioning; producing cellular energy (Adenosine Triphosphate - ATP), aiding repair, and maintaining cellular health. It is added to formulations as a potent antioxidant that neutralises harmful free radicals, mitigating

BETA GLUCAN
With a potent skin integrity ability, it aids in mitigating multiple skin concerns.

SOOTHING BLEND
A blend of pure vitamin E (D-alpha-tocopherol), chamomile extract (alpha bisabolol), allantoin, calendula, seabuckthorn, green tea, aloe vera, and colloidal oatmeal. Containing an abundance of phytonutrients that promote soothing and microbial defence effects with antioxidant effects to mitigate cell oxidation and assist in a more radiant and perfected appearance.
