Key Ingredients

SWEET ALMOND OIL
Rich in β-sitosterol, squalene and vitamin E, the oil from Prunus dulcis has been well researched for its photo-aging protective effects. Additionally, this oil contains manganese, a mineral used in many cosmetics to improve the appearance of wrinkles.

JOJOBA OIL
Taken from the seeds of the desert Jojoba shrub, the liquid wax seed content is an ideal cosmetic ingredient due to its high oxidative stability and non-irritating, non-comodogenic moisturizing effects on skin. Dermatological research has found it to reduce cutaneous inflammation, through decreased leukocyte infiltration, as well as improve skin healing and the appearance of acne scars.
