Description

This Age-Defying night cream for dry skin is specifically designed to address the signs of aging and hydrating. Formulated with Hyaluronic acid, natural botanical extract and plant-based oils, it helps deeply hydrate while nourishing the skin to improve its overall health and texture. It also helps soothe irritation and enhance skin cell regeneration for smoother, more radiant skin. Additionally, it forms a protective barrier to safeguard your skin from environmental harm. 

Key Benefits

  • Hyaluronic acid, together with other natural constituents, forms a moisture-rich film on the skin's surface, ensuring moisture retention and toning. It also deeply infiltrates the epidermis, drawing and preserving water for profound hydration.
  • Our formula includes naturally derived ingredients teeming with vitamins A, C, E, and B3 (niacinamide), peptides, and antioxidants. These essential nutrients not only nourish the skin but also enhance its overall health and texture.
  • The botanical elements in our cream, which are abundant in retinol, hasten skin cell regeneration. By facilitating quicker cell turnover, they aid in replacing the surface's old, dry, and dead skin cells with newer, healthier ones. This process results in smoother, more radiant skin.
  • The soothing effect of our botanical ingredients primarily stems from their capabilities to alleviate inflammation, soothe irritation, and replenish the skin's natural barrier.
  • Our plant-based oils, acting as emollients, soften and smooth the skin by filling in the minuscule gaps between skin cells that are devoid of moisture. This action aids in moisture retention and forms a protective barrier against environmental harm.

Key Ingredients

    •  

     Acid Hyaluronic (active): The ultimate active to maintain skin hydration. We combine different molecular weight particles (low and high). Larger molecules create a water-filled film on the skin's surface, retaining moisture and toning, smoothing wrinkles. Smaller molecules penetrate deep into the epidermis, attracting and retaining water for deep hydration. The combination produces a plumping effect, visibly reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

     

    • Argan Oil (carrier oil): This oil, originating from Morocco, is rich in vitamin E and unsaponifiables, renowned for its nourishing, regenerating, and restructuring properties. Its antioxidant content makes it an ideal active ingredient to combat signs of skin aging, while its fatty acids restore suppleness and softness to dry and depleted skin.
    • Bakuchiol (active):  a vegan and entirely natural extract hailing from plants, shares some structural commonalities with resveratrol. Its qualities have often been likened to retinol due to its ability to focus on the same skin cells, enhancing their look to achieve a more balanced, soft, and healthy-looking complexion. However, what makes Bakuchiol stand out is that it's not a chemical exfoliant, hence it achieves similar outcomes without inducing any irritation or photosensitivity. This distinctive attribute makes Bakuchiol an effective and gentler natural substitute to retinol.
    • Camelia (carrier oil): Known by another name, tea seed oil, Camellia oil stands as a superior hydrator, infused with oleic acid - a monounsaturated fatty acid, it excels in reinforcing and maintaining the skin's natural moisture barrier. Brimming with powerful antioxidants, inclusive of Vitamin E, it shields the skin from environmental aggressors such as pollution and UV damage. Its antioxidant-rich nature also aids in the reduction of fine lines and wrinkles, enhancing the skin's youthful appearance. Furthermore, Camellia oil is a nutrient powerhouse, encompassing an array of vitamins, such as A, B, and E, along with diverse minerals. These combined nourishing properties actively contribute to a healthful glow and overall skin wellbeing.
    •  Cistus Ladanifer (essential oil): Cistus essential oil, a precious beauty oil, holds great value as a key ingredient in formulating anti-aging, anti-wrinkle, and firming skincare products. Its reparative and astringent qualities make it indispensable for addressing conditions such as couperose or chapped skin. Additionally, Cistus helps refine pores, regulate excess oil production, and promote a clearer and more balanced complexion.
    •  
    • Colombian Cacay Oil (carrier oil): packed with retinol and other antioxidant compounds, it's an ideal solution for combating signs of skin aging. Its high tocopherol content makes it a powerful wrinkle-fighting agent that firms and plumps up the skin. Regenerative in nature, it smooths and softens the skin. Being hydrating and nourishing, its composition of polyunsaturated fatty acids strengthens the skin barrier. Its penetrative texture makes it ideal for all skin types and does not leave a greasy film. As a potent restorative, it rejuvenates the skin, enhancing its tone, elasticity, and firmness.
    •  
    • Cucumber Extract (active): Used in cosmetics for ages, cucumber is rich in vitamins, trace elements, and minerals. Apart from its excellent hydrating properties, cucumber is known for its beneficial effects on dull and lackluster skin. The vitamins it contains are particularly advantageous for the skin. This concentrated extract is the perfect ingredient for all skin types, including mixed and oily skin, as it also helps in purifying them.
    • Ho Wood (essential oil): Ho Wood essential oil, an excellent substitute for Rosewood essential oil, is highly regarded as a potent cosmetic ingredient, especially for creating anti-aging skincare products. Its linalool content grants it purifying abilities, making it an effective ally in combatting blemishes and acne-prone skin. Additionally, the oil is renowned for its calming and anti-inflammatory qualities, making it ideal for soothing sensitive or irritated skin, leaving it refreshed and revitalized.
    • Italian Helichrysum (essential oil): this essential oil is a genuine soothing and anti-aging active, serving as a valuable ally in tackling couperose, redness, and combating signs of skin aging. It stimulates blood circulation in the skin and possesses reparative and astringent properties. Furthermore, this powerful essential oil effectively improves the condition of scars and stretch marks.
    •  
    • Natural Vitamin E: It's an excellent anti-aging active ingredient, particularly recommended for dry and mature skin, and in after-sun repair care. It blocks the action of free radicals on the skin, notably reducing cellular damage related to UV exposure. It also has an anti-inflammatory effect on the skin, helps to maintain the skin's elasticity and hydration by strengthening the skin's hydrolipidic film, and improves skin microcirculation.
    • Pomegranate Organic (carrier oil): Pomegranate Oil is a treasure trove of essential fatty acids, making it a valuable resource with potent emollient properties. As an effective moisturizer, it works diligently to shield the skin from potential environmental damage and combat skin conditions associated with dryness. Furthermore, its remarkable antioxidant properties have garnered a reputation for their ability to safeguard skin suppleness and diminish the appearance of fine lines, thereby contributing to the reduction of visible signs of aging.
    • Prickly Pear Seed Oil (carrier oil): Its richness in vitamin E, omega-6, and sterols makes this precious oil an exceptional ingredient to combat signs of skin aging. It works wonders in maintaining the skin's suppleness and firmness.
    • Stabilized Vitamin C (active): This stabilized form of Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that helps brighten the skin, fade dark spots, and promote a more even skin tone. It also stimulates collagen production for a plump and youthful complexion.
    • Vegetal Bisabolol (active): Bisabolol is a powerful ingredient used for its skin-soothing effects, making it ideal for products aimed at sensitive or irritated skin. Derived from the chamomile plant, Bisabolol is recognized for its anti-inflammatory properties, which can help calm and soothe the skin, reducing redness and irritation. Moreover, Bisabolol is known to enhance the percutaneous absorption of certain molecules. This means it can help other ingredients in skincare products to penetrate the skin more effectively, thereby improving their overall effectiveness.

    How to Apply

    • Take a small amount of the night cream (about the size of a pea) and dab it on your forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin.
    • Using your fingertips, gently spread the cream across your face with slow, upward strokes. This method helps the cream penetrate into your skin and can also stimulate blood circulation.
    • After you've spread the cream, gently pat your skin with your fingers. This can help the cream penetrate deeper into your skin. Be especially gentle around your eye area.
    • Allow the cream to fully absorb into your skin before you go to bed to avoid it rubbing off on your pillow.
    • Always do a patch test to ensure the product does not cause irritation.
