Skin Renewal: Retinyl Palmitate

Retinyl Palmitate is a mild vitamin A derivative used in skincare to support a smoother, more refined-looking complexion. Ideal for retinol beginners and sensitive skin routines, it helps improve the look of uneven texture and dullness over time.

Hydration: Hyaluronic Acid

Sodium Hyaluronate, a form of Hyaluronic Acid, helps attract and retain moisture in the skin. It supports a hydrated, plumper-looking complexion and helps reduce the appearance of fine lines caused by dryness.

Comfort: Aloe Vera

Aloe Vera is used in skincare to help soothe and comfort the skin. In this formula, it works alongside Green Tea and botanical soothers to leave skin feeling soft, balanced and cared for.
