The Benefits

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.

Sebum Regulating (Mattifying)

Sebum regulation involves normalising oil production in your sebaceous glands to reduce shine, oiliness, and breakouts, restoring your skin's natural balance. Overactive sebaceous glands can be triggered by internal factors like genetics, hormonal changes, and stress, as well as external factors such as climate, pollution, and diet. Excessive sebum production can lead to enlarged pores, acne, and an oily, shiny appearance. Effective sebum regulation means using skincare products that balance oil levels without over-drying your skin, helping you achieve a clearer, more matte complexion.

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.

Detoxifying

Detoxifying means using active ingredients to remove impurities, toxins, and pollutants from your skin. It protects your skin cells from damage caused by free radicals, promoting healthier, clearer, and more balanced skin.

Antioxidant

Antioxidant Protection shields your skin and preserves its youthful glow. It refers to a defence system that protects against harmful molecules and keeps your complexion healthy and radiant. Free radicals, those incredibly reactive molecules, come from everyday sources like sunlight, diet, smoking, and pollution. They attack healthy cells, accelerating skin ageing, causing wrinkles, loss of firmness, pigmentation, and dullness.

Incorporating antioxidants, such as vitamins C and E, into your skincare routine creates a protective shield on your skin. These powerful ingredients neutralise free radicals, preventing them from causing damage. The result is skin that stays youthful, firm, and luminous.

Active Ingredients

Ceratonia Siliqua Gum

Ceratonia Siliqua Gum is a natural active obtained from the carob tree. It provides a very pleasant soothing effect, while smoothing out wrinkles and softening skin texture.

Pullulan

Pullulan, derived from the fermentation of the Aureobasidium pullulans fungus, is a natural sugar. It forms a thin, breathable film on the skin that instantly tightens and lifts, reducing the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles. This film also serves as a protective barrier, sealing in moisture to keep the skin hydrated and safeguarding it from environmental pollutants.

Volcanic Glass

Volcanic Glass, rich in silica and minerals, is finely ground to be gentle even on the most sensitive skin. In skincare formulas, it acts as a purifying and detoxifying agent, effectively drawing out impurities and excess oil. This leaves the skin clearer, fresher and mattified.

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.

Activated Carbon

Activated Carbon provides powerful detoxifying and purifying benefits for oily and congested skin. It works by deeply cleansing the pores, absorbing excess sebum, and eliminating impurities, resulting in visibly clearer and more balanced skin. Over time, it helps reduce enlarged pores, prevent breakouts, and minimise shine, making it an excellent choice for maintaining a healthy complexion.

Spotlight

Non Active Acne

Clogged pores result from the accumulation of excess sebum and keratinized dead skin cells within hair follicles, leading to various dermatological manifestations. Blackheads, or open comedones, form when a pore remains open, allowing the contents to oxidize and darken, resulting in their characteristic black or dark brown appearance. In contrast, whiteheads, or closed comedones, occur when a pore is occluded and sealed by a thin layer of epidermis, appearing as small, raised, white or flesh-colored bumps due to the lack of oxygen exposure. The broader term "congestion" refers to the buildup of debris within pores, commonly observed on the face and presenting as blackheads, whiteheads, or other blemishes, often serving as precursors to inflammatory acne lesions.
