BISABOLOL
Found as a natural component of chamomile, Bisabolol is an effective anti-irritant and
anti-inflammatory ingredient, helpful in soothing red, irritated skin.
FERULIC ACID (FERULOYL SOY GLYCERIDES)
This potent antioxidant, found in plants, increases stability of vitamin C and E as well as adding
photo-protection. This ingredient also provides additional protection against thymine dimmer
formation.
TETRAHEXYLDECYL ASCROBATE / ESTER OF VITAMIN C (VITAMIN C)
An antioxidant and free radical scavenger. Lightens skin by inhibiting melanin synthesis. A necessary co-factor for
healthy collagen synthesis, inhibits MMP enzymes. THD Ascorbate is an extremely stable and bio-available form of
vitamin C which helps brighten skin and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
RAPESEED (BRASSICA CAMPESTRIS STEROLS) (CHOLESTEROL)
An emollient which makes skin smooth and soft. One of three ingredients that comprise the skin’s natural lipid barrier.
STEARIC ACID (FATTY ACID)
A fatty acid used as an emollient and emulsifier and one of three ingredients that comprise the skin’s natural lipid barrier.
HYDROXYPINACALONE RETINOATE / ESTER OF TRETINOIN (VITAMIN A)
This ester of Retinoic acid (Tretinoin) is more effective and less irritating than traditional esters. A co-factor of collagen
synthesis and a powerful antioxidant, this ingredient helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
TOCOPHERYL ACETATE (VITAMIN E)
One of the most potent antioxidants, particularly good at defending against and disabling free radicals made by the body.
This ingredient is essential to tissue repair, works synergistically with vitamin C, and helps fight free radicals and
environmental stressors that can lead to premature aging.
TRIDECYL SALICYLATE (ESTER OF SALICYLIC ACID)
Aids exfoliation by weakening the links between cells in the outer layer of dead skin, allowing the normal shedding
process to occur at a more optimum rate. By helping new cells surface, it improves skin texture, unclogs pores, enhances
penetration (and therefore effectiveness) of ingredients such as vitamin C.
