The oils are derived through steam distillation. Steam distillation ensures you get the full benefits from each extract, without being contaminated by the acetone or hexane used in solvent extraction methods. The distillate on cooling separates out into a layer of oil, floating over the bulk of water which is then composed by decantation.Featured In

SKIN-SOOTHINGAllantoin
Why We Chose It
Allantoin is a multitasking powerhouse ingredient. Allantoin acts as an emollient that helps to develop a protective film over skin cells, which leads to less water loss. Allantoin also acts as a keratinolytic, which softens the keratin protein found in the outer layer of the skin, allowing the skin to hold onto water better. This makes skin plumper, more supple and extremely hydrated. Keratinolytics also promote shedding of the skin which results in visibly smoother skin and improved overall texture.For everything that allantoin does do — there are actually little to no adverse side effects.
Sources From
The roots of the Comfrey plant (Symphytum Officinale), which is native to the United States and Europe, contain a powerful substance called Allantoin. Allantoin is found within the root mucilage that the comfrey produces, and accelerates new skin cell growth while also being a natural anti-inflammatory agent.Featured In

SKIN-RESTORINGHydrolyzed[] Sodium Hyaluronate
Why We Chose It
Sodium Hyaluronate is the salt form of the skin-replenishing ingredient hyaluronic acid. It’s actually considered to be more effective for skin than pure hyaluronic acid due to its greater compatibility & ability to penetrate deeper layers of the skin. It provides similar essential hydration like hyaluronic acid, by attracting moisture to the skin cells. This helps to reduce surface dryness, itchiness and flaking by increasing skin hydration levels. When your skin is properly hydrated, the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles look more diminished.Sources From
Sodium hyaluronate is derived from wheat fermentation. In the case of fermentation, wheat is fermented with specific bacteria, then purified and precipitated. This process extracts the sodium hyaluronate naturally present in the wheat. This process makes it easier to control the concentration and size of the molecule, making the formulation more effective. The "hydrolyzing" process breaks down the sodium hyaluronate molecules in order for them to better penetrate the skin, resulting in maximum moisture absorption.Featured In
SKIN-RESTORINGSilver Citrate[] Zeolite + Citrus Acid Blend
Why We Chose It
A potent blend of superhero natural actives known to yield antimicrobial properties to help purify the skin of harmful toxins. Silver has been used as an anti-inflammatory agent for centuries.

CHEMICAL EXFOLIANTLactic Acid
Why We Chose It
Lactic acid is used to exfoliate the skin, lighten dark spots, and improve the look of fine lines and wrinkles.It helps the older, dull cells on the skin's surface to slough away by dissolving the bonds that hold them together, allowing them to shed naturally as they once did. Lactic acid speeds up cell turnover and stimulates cell renewal. This results in a brighter complexion, as well as smoother and softer skin.
