Achieving and maintaining youthful skin goes beyond good habits- it starts with the right ingredients. Here are ten skincare powerhouses that promote a radiant, youthful complexion:
1. Retinol: A form of vitamin A, retinol boosts collagen production, reduces fine lines, and improves skin texture. You can find a vegan retinol alternative in our Eye Cream.
2. Hyaluronic Acid: A moisture magnet that deeply hydrates the skin, plumping it to reduce the appearance of wrinkles. You can find this in our Reviving Cleansing Cream, Radiance-Boosting Face Cream, SPF 30, Exfoliating Tonic with AHA & PHA.
3. Vitamin C: A potent antioxidant that brightens skin tone, fades dark spots, and protects against environmental damage. You can find this in our Face Serum with Vitamin C.
4. Peptides: These amino acid chains support skin structure, enhancing firmness and elasticity.
5. Niacinamide: Also known as vitamin B3, niacinamide improves skin tone, reduces redness, and strengthens the skin barrier.
6. Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs): Exfoliants like glycolic and lactic acid remove dead skin cells, revealing fresher, smoother skin underneath. You can find this in our Exfoliating Tonic with AHA & PHA.
7. Ceramides: Lipids that help maintain the skin’s natural barrier, locking in moisture and protecting against irritants.
8. Squalane: A lightweight, non-comedogenic oil that hydrates and balances the skin, mimicking natural sebum. You can find this in our Eye Cream, Brilliant Balm, Hydra-Bod Body Cream, Enzyme Face Mask.
9. Sunscreen: With broad spectrum protection: use minimum factor 30 to protect skin against wrinkles, pigmentation and UV damage. Our SPF30 Face Serum is broad spectrum with UVA/UVB protection.
10. Green Tea Extract: Rich in antioxidants, it calms inflammation, reduces redness, and protects against UV damage. You can find this in our Moringa Enzyme Face Mask here.
