Ingredients |
- Sea Buckthorn (Hippophae Rhamnoides) Oil: Used to treat acne, dermatitis, itchy and irritated skin, eczema, cuts, burns and many skin diseases due to its ability to help with tissue regeneration and to treat inflammation. It also helps reduce the effects of sun radiation. Rich in rare Omega-7 fatty acids (also known as Palmitoleic acid, which is a major skin component often depleted in sensitised skin), phytosterols and vitamins A and E, along with antioxidant carotenoids and soothing flavonoids, Sea Buckthorn helps restore health to sensitised and prematurely ageing skin.
- Licorice (Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate): Contains soothing isoflavonoid polyphenois to clam skin irritation while providing antioxidant protection.
- Pilewort (Ranunculus Ficaria) Extract: Soothes and calms irritated skin while it reduces redness. Contains phenolic derivatives such as rutin and tri-terpenic saponins that help help de-congest skin tissues and redness blotchiness.
- Dimethicone: A skin conditioning silicone that protects and reinforces barrier lipids which are often compromised in sensitised skin conditions.
- Tocopherol Acetate (Vitamin E): An antioxidant that, when formulated with sunscreen agents, enhances protection against UV induced sunburn and free radicals. Also helps sooth inflamed skin.
- Epilobium Angustifolium Flower / Leaf / Stem Extract: Also know as Canadian Willowherb, this multifunctional botanical extract is a non-steroidal anti-irritant that reduces skin redness while scavenging free radicals and inhibiting bacterial activity.
- Oat Kernal (Avena Sativa) Extract: An excellent anti-inflammatory and immunostimulant used to control itching, eczema, rashes and sensitised skin conditions. As a rich source of beta glucan, lipids and proteins, studies have demonstrated it to be superior to copper peptides in effecting post-laser surgical healing.
- Olive Leaf Extract: Rich in polyphenois oleoropein and hydroxytyrosol, Olive Leaf Extract provides antioxidant protection.
- Allantoin and Panthenol (Pro-vitamin B5): Sooth skin and aid skin repair and hydration. Allentoin, from the Comfrey plant, contains tannic acids that also aids in tissue repair and promotes healthy skin.
