  • - + Pore Tightening & Minimising
  • - + Purifying
Enzymatic Exfoliation

Enzymatic exfoliation uses natural fruit enzymes like papain (from papaya) and bromelain (from pineapple) to gently break down dead skin cells on the surface, making it perfect for sensitive skin. Unlike chemical exfoliation, which uses acids like AHAs and BHAs to dissolve bonds between cells for deeper exfoliation, enzymatic exfoliation is milder. It promotes smoother, brighter skin without the risk of irritation, giving you a gentle yet effective way to reveal your natural radiance.

Brightening

Brightening your skin means restoring its natural glow. One of the best ways to do this is through exfoliation. By exfoliating, you promote faster skin cell turnover, replacing old, damaged cells with fresh, radiant ones. This keeps your skin looking vibrant and healthy.

Microbiome Balancing

Microbiome Balancing involves maintaining a healthy balance of microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, viruses) that live on your skin. Your skin's microbiome is crucial for protecting against pathogens, regulating pH, maintaining a healthy barrier, and ensuring optimal hydration. A balanced microbiome leads to clearer, healthier skin that’s more resilient to irritation and inflammation. Probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics are key ingredients that support a healthy microbiome. Probiotics introduce beneficial bacteria, prebiotics fuel the growth of good bacteria and help balance pH, and postbiotics enhance hydration and strengthen the skin barrier. This combination helps your skin stay healthy and vibrant.

Hydrating

Hydration is all about the water content in your skin that keeps it supple and healthy. Humectants, ingredients with water-binding properties, deliver this hydration by attracting water molecules from the atmosphere. For the best results, apply hydrating serums right after a shower. Humectants not only replenish your skin's hydration but also enhance its water retention, creating a long-lasting hydration reservoir. Adding humectants like hyaluronic acid to your routine will restore your skin's healthy glow, minimize fine lines, and provide a plumping effect.

Pore Tightening & Minimising

Pore minimising involves reducing the appearance of enlarged pores. Enlarged pores often result from excess oil production and accumulated impurities, which stretch them over time. ageing also plays a role, as reduced skin elasticity makes pores more visible. Pore-minimising formulas tackle these issues by regulating oil production and boosting collagen and elastin to enhance skin elasticity. This helps pores return to their natural, less noticeable shape, giving your skin a smoother, more refined look.

Purifying

Purifying your skin means removing impurities, reducing excess oil, and deep cleansing to minimise a greasy or shiny appearance and prevent breakouts. This process leaves your skin clearer, more balanced, and looking fresh.

PHA (Gluconolactone)

Gluconolactone is a type of Polyhydroxy Acid (PHA), known for its larger molecular size compared to AHAs and BHAs. This characteristic enables it to penetrate the skin more gently, making it suitable for sensitive skin types. PHAs like Gluconolactone offer dual benefits: they exfoliate while also serving as humectants and antioxidants. Humectants are substances that attract and retain moisture from the environment or deeper layers of the skin, helping to hydrate the skin effectively. This moisturising effect, coupled with its antioxidant properties, helps improve skin hydration, protect against free radicals, and promote a brighter, clearer, and more youthful skin appearance.

Squalane

Squalane is a skin-identical lipid with a high affinity for the skin. Naturally found in human sebum, it enhances the skin's barrier function and promotes efficient water retention. Lightweight and non-comedogenic, squalane is suitable for all skin types.

Microcrystalline Phytocellulose

Microcrystalline Cellulose is a refined form of cellulose from plant cell walls, delivering a super gentle, non-abrasive exfoliation to reveal smoother, more radiant skin. As a biodegradable and environmentally friendly alternative to synthetic exfoliants, it is ultra-gentle and suitable for all skin types. Unlike other scrubbing agents, this ingredient also provides added antioxidant benefits, making it a superior choice.

Organic Lemon Water is a revitalising skincare ingredient known for its refreshing and purifying properties. This 100% Organic Lemon Water replenishes skin's hydration reservoirs. Rich in Vitamin C and Antioxidants it brightens the complexion, tightens pores, and reduces imperfections. Its natural astringent qualities cleanse and detoxify the skin, leaving it fresh and rejuvenated.

Glutamic Acid

Glutamic Acid, a naturally occurring amino acid, it acts as a potent humectant, attracting and retaining water molecules to maintain optimal hydration levels. By boosting hydration in the skin, Glutamic Acid helps to maintain efficient cell turnover, smooth the skin's texture and plump up wrinkles, leaving the complexion soft, supple and rejuvenated.

Olea Europea Oil

Olea Europea Oil also known as Olive oil is rich in fatty acids and antioxidants, offering nourishing and protective benefits for the skin. Abundant in Vitamin E, it shields the skin from cell-damageing free radicals, effectively preventing premature skin ageing. Its high content of Fatty Acids improves barrier function and hydration levels, while its anti-inflammatory properties help reduce skin sensitivity for a healthy and balanced complexion.

Fermented Lactobacillus & Cocos Nuci-fera

Fermented Lactobacillus & Cocos Nucifera Extract is derived from the fermentation of Lactobacillus Bacteria and Coconut Juice. This process releases natural sugars that serve as probiotics on the skin, enhancing the balance of the skin microbiome. It promotes the growth of beneficial microorganisms while safeguarding against harmful bacteria. In addition to supporting the microbiome, it functions as a natural preservative and skin softener.

Physical & Chemical Exfoliation

Physical and chemical exfoliation are two popular techniques for removing dead skin cells and promoting a healthier, more radiant complexion. Each method offers unique benefits and targets skin concerns differently, making them key components in any effective skincare routine. Exfoliation helps to improve skin texture, unclog pores, and enhance the absorption of skincare products, leading to smoother, brighter skin. Physical exfoliation offers immediate results, while chemical exfoliation promotes deeper, longer-lasting effects without the risk of physical irritation. Physical exfoliation involves the use of scrubs, brushes, or cloths with granules that manually slough off dead skin cells from the surface. This method provides instant smoothness but can sometimes cause micro-tears, making it less suitable for sensitive skin types. Chemical exfoliation, on the other hand, employs acids (like AHAs, BHAs) or enzymes to dissolve dead skin cells at a deeper level. This process promotes cell turnover, enhances the skin’s natural renewal process, and helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines, pigmentation, and dullness without abrasive action, making it gentler for sensitive skin. Physical exfoliation delivers a quick, refreshed feel, but those with sensitive skin might find it too abrasive. Chemical exfoliation gradually reveals smoother, brighter skin with regular use, and is generally better suited for those seeking a gentler approach with deeper results. Users often notice improved skin clarity, reduced congestion, and an overall glow. Both exfoliation methods have their place in a skincare routine, offering tailored solutions depending on skin type and needs. By choosing the right type of exfoliation, you can achieve a smoother, more radiant complexion that feels fresh, revitalised, and renewed, enhancing your overall skin health and appearance.
