Glycyrrhetinic Acid (Licorice Root) gives this plant its ability to help calm skin and minimize signs of sensitization. It functions as an antioxidant and plays a role in brightening and improving the look of an uneven skin tone. Glycyrrhetinic Acid reduces redness, irritation and swelling, and is used to treat skin conditions like atopic dermatitis and eczema. Licorice Root Extract is known to inhibit the secretion of tyrosinase, which helps to prevent dark spots from forming on the skin, reversing hyperpigmentation. Licorice also contains glabridin, which is known to help stop discoloration and contains UV blocking enzymes that prevent new skin damage from occurring. Licorice can help the regeneration of our skin’s collagen and elastin supply.
Boswellia Serrata Extract (Boswellia Serrata Plant Heart) Extract: Boswellia Serrata Plant Heart Extract is an extract from the Boswellia Serrata Tree and is an herbal remedy that is often used in Ayurveda. Boswellia Serrata Extract is rich in boswellic acids that have anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects while reducing redness. It also supports the production of elastin and hyaluronic acid in the skin. These ingredients work together to improve the firmness and elasticity of the skin. They also help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The active ingredients in this product can be easily absorbed by the skin and penetrate deep layers. This treatment is recommended for people who are suffering from acne, psoriasis, and dermatitis.
Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Extract: Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Extract is a natural ingredient that is used for its anti- inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties. It is derived from the bark of the white willow tree and contains salicin which is a natural form of Salicylic Acid. Salicylic acid is known for its ability to exfoliate the skin and unclog pores. Willow Bark Extract also contains polyphenols and flavonoids which contribute to its antioxidant effects that have been shown to diminish wrinkles, reduce the appearance of pores, and even out skin tone while promoting increased firmness. It promotes cell turnover, which is the production of new skin cells, making the skin surface smooth and gives an even-toned complexion. Willow Bark also provides exceptional anti-inflammatory properties that have been shown to reduce redness and soothe skin irritations.
Totarol: Totarol is a compound from the heartwood of the Tōtara tree from New Zealand and makes the wood extremely resistant to decay due to its antimicrobial and potent antioxidant activity. Totarol is seven times stronger than Vitamin E, and a potent force to neutralize free radicals linked to skin aging. Totarol has natural antimicrobial properties and is proven to be effective at helping with infections of the skin that involve bacteria, including acne, and helps to soothe damaged, irritated skin. Totarol is also a natural anti-inflammatory, which means that it can be both soothing and healing for skin.
Calamine: Calamine is a natural mineral that has been known to sooth, calm, and reduce discomfort from minor skin conditions. It is an anti-pruritic (itchiness), antiseptic and astringent ingredient for conditions like eczema, rashes, blisters, and insect bites. It also moisturizes dry and dehydrated skin, calms sensitivity, improves complexion and helps with skin reactions for skin to feel calmer and more nourished.
