Green Algae

Green Algae is known to help purify the skin and increase skin firmness. It’s naturally rich in amino acids such as lysine, proline, glycine and alanine. The amino acid composition is very similar to that of collagen fibres and mimics the effect of collagen in the skin, including locking in moisture and smoothing the surface of the skin.

Red Algae

Red Algae is a seaweed which thrives in the deepest parts of the ocean. It is a rich source of natural minerals, amino acids, vitamins and polysaccharides, which help enhance skin's barrier function and increase its moisture-retention abilities. This soothing extract also helps to purify the skin and stimulate sluggish circulation to promote elasticity and skin smoothness.

Pearl Extract

Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt, is known to have used Pearl on her skin to maintain her youthful beauty. It is naturally rich in amino acids to help brighten and firm skin’s appearance and antioxidants to help to protects the skin from harmful environmental aggressors. Mineral compounds found in Pearl extract, including calcium, magnesium, zinc and silicon, help strengthen and support skin function.

Menthol

Derived from peppermint, Menthol has been used for medicinal purposes for centuries. In skincare, menthol is used as it creates a cooling sensation on the skin which helps to soothe irritation and muscular discomfort. The cooling effect triggers the nerve endings to send a message to the brain to block discomfort such as irritations, muscular tension or heat from overexposure to the sun.

Aloe Vera

Taken from the thick gel inside the leaves of the aloe vera cactus. Aloe Vera gel has been used as a natural remedy for thousands of years. The high-water content (over 98%) means it is super hydrating, soothing and cooling. The gel is loaded with an impressive list of nutrients, including minerals, vitamins, amino acids and phytonutrients. Aloe Vera is a powerful antioxidant and contains vitamins A, C, E and Folic Acid which help to neutralise free radical damage.
