Green Tea

A botanical extract derived from the leaves of the tea plant, Camellia Sinensis. Not only a beneficial beverage, the Polyphenols in Green Tea possess potent antioxidant and skin-soothing properties. Polyphenols are also beneficial for soothing blemish-prone or congested skin. Regular use can also improve the appearance of sun-damaged skin, and the natural caffeine content can help decrease puffiness.

Ginkgo Biloba

Originating from Asia, Gingko Biloba is one of the oldest trees on the planet. Gingko Biloba is used in skincare because it’s highly concentrated with polyphenols and flavonoids. These provide antioxidant protections which help to neutralise free radicals. Ginkgo Biloba also provides skin-soothing benefits, helps to increase hydration, and provides anti-ageing benefits.

Elderflower

Elderflower is a beautiful white blossom which is rich in bioflavonoids which have anti-ageing benefits. Elderflowers are mildly astringent to help refine the complexion, minimise the appearance of pores and smooth the skin. The blossom also contains antioxidants that help protect against free radical damage for a fresh, healthy-looking appearance.

Bilberry

Bilberries are like blueberries and are one of the best sources of antioxidant compounds. They are known to calm and strengthen the skin whilst protecting skin from environmental damage. Bilberry’s astringent properties tone and refine the complexion.

Horsetail

Horsetail is a perennial herb that has been used as a herbal remedy for centuries. It is naturally rich in silica, a trace mineral which can help refine and tone the skin and minimise the appearance of the pores whilst promoting skin suppleness. Horsetail is beneficial for all skin types, including sensitive skin and helps calm irritation and protect skin from oxidative damage.
