Soothe Essence Serum

How to use: Gently pat a small amount of Eye Mousse into the skin around the eyes until absorbed to accelerate hydration benefits.

CAUTION
Do not use if skin is broken or cracked. A slight tingle or sense of activity on an extremely sensitive person indicates direct sensitivities to the oxygenating properties. Initial redness may occur due to the oxygenating action and bringing blood flow to the surface, subsiding quickly. Discontinue use if skin feels irritated, itchy or burns. For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Keep out of reach of children. Please check a Physicians Desk reference to make sure there are no contraindications with medications and ingredients.

Key Ingredients

Pinus Cembra Wood (Swiss Stone Pine) Extract: Pinus Cembra Wood (Swiss Stone Pine) Extract is a concentrated extract of Swiss Stone Pine, called King of the Alps, and contains pinosylvin. This is known to reduce inflammation through several biological pathways. It calms skin hypersensitivity and reduces local skin redness and color irregularities resulting from inflammation. It also visibly reduces redness and age spots and creates a more even toned skin for a youthful radiance. Pinosylvin is also known to have antioxidant, energizing, radiance, and brightening properties and protects from the effects of environmental stress.

Acetyl hexapeptide-49: Acetyl Hexapeptide-49 can reduce inflammation and relieve itching by inhibiting inflammatory factors, while improving the tingling sensation and soothing the skin. Acetyl Hexapeptide-49 improves the proliferation and differentiation of cells and helps repair the skin barrier. It also has a moisturizing effect, which can increase the water content of the skin and make the skin smooth and elastic. It increases hydration, preventing the skin from flaking, restoring suppleness and softness.

Acetyl heptapeptide-4: Acetyl Heptapeptide-4 is a synthetic peptide that was developed to maintain the skin’s microbiota balance. It promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria acting as a probiotic while boosting skin’s natural defense systems against harmful microbes. Acetyl Heptapeptide-4 promotes a balanced microbiome, it also reduces skin sensitivity and lessens discomfort, scaling, and irritation. It improves the skin’s natural defense systems and improves hydration exposing a healthy, revitalized, and radiant appearance.

Yogurt Extract & Yogurt Powder: Yogurt Extract and Powder are known for their nourishing and moisturizing properties, also containing lactic acid which is used to treat skin irritations and dry skin. This acid helps to remove dead cells from the skin and hence helps in treating acne. Yogurt regulates oil production and has antibacterial and antifungal properties. Since it contains proteins and calcium, it increases elasticity and makes the skin soft and supple and helps to build collagen. Other benefits of yogurt are moisturization, brightening, toning, sun protection, elasticity, wound healing and reducing fine lines and wrinkles.

Jojoba Esters (Beads): Jojoba Esters (Beads) are the hydrogenation or transesterification product of Jojoba oil. Jojoba Esters are commonly used in cosmetic formulations as an emollient, due to its remarkable similarity to the natural oils produced by the human skin, and its high oxidative stability. Fully hydrogenated Jojoba Esters are most often small beads used to non-abrasively exfoliate the skin. They remove dead skin cells effectively while still allowing the skin underneath to breathe. They are an emollient additive because of its similar consistency to sebum which acts as a protective oily layer on the skin. They aid moisture retention and safeguard skin from infections and are effective in increasing the skin’s firmness.

Sorbus Aucuparia (Rowanberry) Seed Oil: Rowanberries are rich in natural antioxidants, including flavonoids like quercetin. These antioxidants help prevent cellular damage caused by free radicals, reducing the risk of chronic inflammatory conditions. The abundant vitamin C content in Rowan berries supports collagen synthesis and helps prevent premature aging due to UV radiation exposure. Pro-vitamin A carotenoids and other antioxidants also assist with anti-aging effects as well as initiates and supports reparative processes at cellular level. Rowan berries accelerate wound closure and skin recovery. Their collagen-boosting properties aid in minimizing scars and promoting cell regeneration. Rowan berries can be beneficial for managing inflammatory skin conditions like eczema, rosacea, and psoriasis.

Vaccinium Vitis-Idaea (Lingonberry) Seed Oil: Lingonberries contain omega fatty acids, especially gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). These help to retain skin hydration and maintain a healthy skin barrier. Lingonberries provide vitamins A, C, and E, along with essential minerals like calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and potassium, promoting overall skin health. Lingonberries are rich in antioxidants, which protect the skin from free radical damage caused by UV radiation and environmental pollutants. Quercetin, found in lingonberries, has anti-aging properties, and can reduce sun damage and prevent hyperpigmentation. Lingonberries have natural anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, making them beneficial for acne-prone skin and other inflammatory skin conditions. Lastly, the fruit acids in lingonberries gently exfoliate the skin, promoting a smoother complexion.

Sambucus Nigra Fruit (Elderberry) Oil: Elderberries are rich in antioxidants and vitamin A, which help reduce signs of aging, evens out skin tone and addresses age spots (pigmentations). Elderberries are high in vitamin C, which supports skin health and combat free radicals that accelerate aging by breaking down elastin and collagen. Elderberries contain polyphenols that fortify the skin against UV damage caused by sun exposure. These compounds also promote healthy cell growth, helping maintain youthful-looking skin. The properties of elderberry can aid in fading scars, contributing to a more even complexion. Elderberry oil can be beneficial for scalp health, addressing issues like dryness or improving general skin health. Elderberry is also effective at reducing inflammation, soothing irritated skin, and strengthening skin resiliency.

Psoralea Corylifolia (Bakuchiol) Seed Extract: Bakuchiol is a natural, plant-derived ingredient that is a gentler alternative to retinol for those with sensitivities. Unlike retinoids, bakuchiol is generally less irritating and carries fewer side effects like redness or flaking. Bakuchiol stimulates skin cell turnover, helping to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. When applied topically, bakuchiol exfoliates the skin, promoting collagen production and improving texture and tone. Bakuchiol may be effective in reducing hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and acne scars. It also provides protection from oxidative stress, improves skin laxity, and can help prevent clogged pores while providing skin renewal and rejuvenation.

Arctostaphylos Uva Ursi Leaf (Bearberry) Extract: Bearberry contains derivatives of arbutin and hydroquinone and is often considered nature’s alternative to hydroquinone due to its effectiveness in brightening the complexion and evening out skin tone. Arbutin also inhibits melanin production, making it effective in treating hyperpigmentation and preventing further darkening of the skin especially for addressing sunspots and melasma. Bearberry promotes skin cell renewal, similar to stabilized vitamin C and retinol addressing fine lines and wrinkles. Bearberry extract is rich in antioxidants, which protect from free radicals and help preserve collagen, maintaining skin elasticity and preventing premature aging. The extract provides some natural UV protection, and has mild antibacterial properties, making it beneficial for treating acne and preventing breakouts. Traditional uses of bearberry suggest that the extract has soothing properties, calming redness and inflammation.
