AHA complex
This complex of natural alpha hydroxy acids (glycolic acid, lactic acid, tartaric acid, and malic acid) is carefully formulated to exfoliate the skin in a progressive and controlled manner. AHAs work by loosening the bonds between dead skin cells on the surface, promoting cell renewal and resulting in smoother, more even skin texture. This effect is particularly beneficial for individuals with skin conditions such as keratosis pilaris and strawberry legs, where the buildup of dead skin cells can cause unevenness and scaling. With regular use, the AHA complex helps reduce the visibility of these irregularities and scaling, resulting in a smoother, radiant skin surface. Furthermore, AHAs have been shown to reduce excess oil production and minimize the appearance of pores, which can also help improve the overall appearance and texture of the skin.
Salicylic acid (1%)
Salicylic acid, derived from willow bark, is a powerful ingredient with exfoliating and anti-inflammatory properties. It's particularly effective in treating skin conditions like keratosis pilaris, strawberry legs, and acne, as it helps remove dead skin cells and unclog pores, which are often the cause of these skin problems. Salicylic acid also has antibacterial properties that fight bacteria that can worsen skin problems. For people with sensitive or irritated skin, such as with eczema or dry, itchy legs, salicylic acid offers a soothing effect that reduces inflammation and redness. With regular use, it can improve the skin's natural barrier and help prevent future outbreaks of irritation and dryness.
Sodium PCA
Sodium PCA, also known as Sodium Pyrrolidone Carboxylate, is a natural humectant ingredient derived from L-glutamic acid, an essential amino acid in the skin. This ingredient helps maintain the skin's moisture balance, especially in dry and itchy areas such as shins and legs. Sodium PCA attracts and retains moisture from the environment, binding up to 70% of its own weight in water, which is particularly beneficial for skin types prone to dryness and irritation, such as strawberry legs and dry legs.
Coal sugar / Allantoin
Allantoin, derived from the Nordic plant comfrey, is a multifunctional ingredient known for its soothing, moisturizing, and restorative properties. It helps to alleviate irritation and promote healing of damaged skin, making it particularly beneficial for those suffering from eczema, itchy legs, or dry, irritated areas on the body. Allantoin works by promoting cell regeneration and improving skin texture, leaving the skin softer and smoother. For individuals with scaly skin or rough patches, often seen in skin conditions like Keratosis Pilaris, allantoin can help restore the skin's balance and soften hard or dry spots.
Cornflower / Bluebottle
Cornflower hydrolat is best known for its soothing properties for tired or irritated hair follicles. However, its calming effect also soothes and reduces minor skin irritations while regenerating the skin. Its astringent properties also help regulate sebum and give a more radiant complexion. Finally, its toning and moisturizing properties mean this hydrolat has many extra benefits.
Caprylic/Capric Triglycerides
This fast-absorbing, medium-chain natural fatty acid provides intensive moisture without leaving a greasy feeling on the skin. The oil is particularly suitable for treating dry legs and itchy shins, as it penetrates deep into the skin and seals in moisture. This light ester oil is gentle on the skin and promotes a silky-soft, non-greasy finish, making it ideal for daily use for people with dry and sensitive skin. At the same time, its nourishing properties help restore the skin's natural moisture balance, which is crucial for combating symptoms of Keratosis Pilaris and strawberry legs.
Sugar error
Beetroot extract is a natural ingredient derived from sugar beets that acts as a powerful moisturizer and cell protector. It helps maintain the skin's moisture balance, which is particularly beneficial for people with skin conditions such as dry legs and scaly skin. Beetroot has a protective effect that strengthens the skin barrier and reduces the risk of irritation and inflammation, making it ideal for sensitive and dry skin. This ingredient also helps improve the skin's overall resistance to external stressors such as dry air and cold, which can worsen symptoms of skin problems like eczema and keratosis pilaris.
Lactic acid
Lactic acid is one of the gentlest AHAs, exfoliating the skin and improving its moisture balance. It works by removing dead skin cells from the surface, helping to smooth the skin's texture and improve its appearance. Lactic acid is particularly useful for people with keratosis pilaris, eczema, and scaly skin, as it both moisturizes and exfoliates without causing irritation. By stimulating the production of ceramides, lactic acid strengthens the skin's natural barrier and prevents moisture loss, helping to keep the skin soft and supple for longer.
Natural Vitamin E
Tocopherol, also known as vitamin E, is a powerful antioxidant that protects the skin from free radicals and premature aging. It helps maintain the skin's natural moisture levels, making it particularly suitable for dry and irritated skin, such as that which can occur with eczema and keratosis pilaris. Tocopherol also promotes the healing of damaged skin and strengthens the skin's natural barrier, reducing the risk of further irritation and dryness.
Shea Oil
Shea butter is a rich, moisturizing oil known for its anti-inflammatory properties. It helps restore skin elasticity and soothes irritation, making it ideal for people with dry, sensitive, or irritated skin. Shea butter is particularly effective in treating dry legs and scaly skin, as it provides intensive nourishment and helps protect the skin from further drying. With regular use, shea butter helps maintain the skin's moisture balance and promotes a healthy, supple skin surface.
Olive Hydroglycerin Extract
Olive hydroglycerin extract is derived from olive leaves and is rich in flavonoids and antioxidants that reduce inflammation and protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals. This ingredient is ideal for sensitive skin and helps restore the skin's moisture balance by creating a protective barrier that prevents moisture loss. The olive extract promotes healthy, hydrated skin and soothes irritation, which is important for people with skin conditions such as dry shins, eczema, and keratosis pilaris.
