Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 — Trials indicate it can help soften the appearance of expression lines over time.

Centella Asiatica — Supports barrier repair, calming visible redness and sensitivity.

Ceramide 3 — Reinforces the skin’s barrier, helping to reduce transepidermal water loss.

Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) — Known to support brighter, more even tone.

Spirulina Extract — Provides antioxidant protection against environmental stressors.

Zanthoxylum Extract — Recognised for its soothing effect on sensitive skin.

All data drawn from published clinical and dermatological research on the individual botanicals, not direct testing of the final formula.

Prunus Dulcis (Sweet Almond Oil) — Clinically studied for its emollient lipids that soften texture, improve suppleness, and support barrier repair — making it ideal for dehydrated or sensitive skin.

Corylus Americana (Hazelnut Oil) — A light, astringent oil high in oleic acid and tannins, known to help refine pores and balance sebum while maintaining hydration. Particularly suited for combination and acne-prone skin.

Oenothera Biennis (Evening Primrose Oil) — Rich in gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), observed in clinical studies to support elasticity, firmness, and reduce roughness. Valued as a restorative night oil.

Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender Oil) — Recognised for its calming aroma and phenolic compounds. In dermatological testing, topical lavender has been shown to soothe visible redness and irritation. Supports skin prone to sensitivity.

Boswellia Carterii (Frankincense Oil) — Resin-derived extract studied for its boswellic acids, noted for anti-inflammatory activity. Research highlights improvements in the appearance of photoaging signs such as fine lines and roughness, lending subtle toning effects.
