Aloe Vera, Shea Butter, Almond Oil and Coconut Oil – These are packed full of vitamins, essential fatty acids, proteins, amino acids, lecithin and antioxidants which are essential for skin regeneration and maintaining youthful skin.Natural Vitamin E Oil – Scientific studies have shown that topically applied vitamin E has numerous skin care benefits.It is a very effective antioxidant and protects the skin from environmental pollution and oxidative stress.It has a protecting action against UV radiation – although it cannot be classed as a sunscreen. It is an excellent moisturiser.It contains a powerful anti-inflammatory action which prevents premature ageing (inflammatory conditions in the skin are a leading cause of skin ageing).It also has excellent wound healing properties.Lavender Oil – Studies have shown that lavender oil is cytophylactic and replaces previously damaged and mature skin with new healthy skin.Cytophylactic oils are especially beneficial in skin care for ageing and mature skin and stimulate the generation of new cells, which will aid in preserving the health of the skin.It is also an astringent which induces contractions in the skin, closing pores, toning and firming the skin.It can reduce the presence of wrinkles by tightening the skin, thereby delaying some of the effects of premature ageing.It is a powerful cicatrisant, so it helps the scars and other spots on the skin to fade and vanish.It facilitates blood circulation just below the surface of skin and also helps promote a uniform distribution of melanin.Amaranth Seed Extract – This is almost the only plant showing a high concentration of squalene.In addition, it contains high amount of tocopherols, tocotrienols and linoleic acid. Squalene is a powerful antioxidant that prevents UV damage and the formation of age spots.It also promotes skin cell growth.Tocopherols have proven to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions, which can help protect skin, speed wound healing, and provide anti-ageing effects.Tocotrienols are members of the vitamin E family. Vitamin E has been scientifically proven to reduce skin ageing.Since the 1980s, there have been more studies proving tocotrienols are more potent in their anti-oxidation than the common forms of tocopherol due their chemical structure.The unsaturated side-chain in tocotrienols causes them to penetrate tissues with saturated fatty layers more efficiently, making them ideal for anti-ageing skincare.Tocotrienols are better than tocopherols at combating oxidative stress of skin that had been exposed to UV rays of the sunlight.In vivo, tocotrienols are more powerful antioxidants than tocopherols. Linoleic acid is a polyunsaturated fatty acid and is part of the Omega 6 fatty acids.According to research, as a fatty acid, linoleic acid helps to maintain the health of cell membranes, improve nutrient use, and establish and control cellular metabolism.It also produces prostaglandins, which stimulate circulation via vasodilatation and strengthen the body’s natural defences, suppressing inflammation. Inflammation is one of the main causes of skin ageing.A study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition assessed the effects of a combination of linoleic acid and vitamin C on over 30,000 people.They saw a marked improvement in senile dryness (as a result of ageing) and skin atrophy (thinness).When topically applied it is even more effective.Rosehip Oil – This has been clinically proven to improve the skins appearance by regenerating skin cells.It is rich in topical trans-retinoic acid (vitamin A) and vitamin C and is used by dermatologists to increase collagen production in the dermis.Dermatologists say retinoic acid is the ‘Gold Standard’ in anti-ageing skin care.Research published in the Journal of Dermatological Science reported that treatment with retinoic acid restored the elastic fibres that keep skin taut and reduced the appearance of wrinkles.Calendula Extract – Studies have shown that calendula, like frankincense oil, is also cytophylactic, astringent and cicatrisant.A 2010 study showed that calendula may help protect the skin from sun damage. It helps to keep the skin healthy and youthful looking.Researchers think this is because of the natural antioxidants in calendula that have a natural protective property.Several studies have shown it has amazing anti-inflammatory properties. Inflammation is one of the main causes of skin ageing.Calendula also balances skin tone by increasing sebum production in dry areas and reducing excessive sebum production in oily areas.Avocado Oil – Avocado oil is rich in vitamins A, D and E, lecithin, as well as potassium – known as the youth mineral.It is also high in sterolins, which reduce age spots and help heal sun damage and scars.It is the sterolins (also called plant steroids) that help soften the skin and impart a superior moisturising effect.It is ideal for people with dehydrated, sun damaged skin or mature skin.It nourishes the skin and assists in the regeneration and rejuvenation of the skin.In a study done at the Department of Food Engineering and Biotechnology, Technion-Israel Institute of Technology in 1991, it was found that avocado oil significantly increased the amount of collagen in the skin – which is normally under attack as we get older.AHA Natural Fruit Extract – Alpha Hydroxyl Acids (AHA’s) have been shown to promote smoother, younger looking skin by increasing the rate of cell renewal and have excellent moisturising properties.AHA’s work by decreasing the compounds that hold dead skin on the surface. By breaking down these compounds, the dead cells slough off, leaving behind a layer of smoother, softer skin.Vegetable Glycerin – Studies have shown that glycerine reduces transepidermal water loss and consequently has anti-wrinkle effects.

Regain Your Youthful Glow!

Remember when you were younger and your skin just glowed without you even trying? Looking back it is so annoying isn’t it?

The secret to why our cream makes your skin look and feel younger and gives you that natural, shimmering glow, is because it contains a lot of the simple classics that have been forgotten.

Simple classics such as English lavender oil, amaranth, shea butter, aloe vera, rosehip oil and almond oil.

Forget Miracles, Believe in Magic!

But wait a minute….what about ‘that new miracle cream that’s splashed all over the internet!’ or ‘that wonder cream with a super duper new ingredient I’ve never heard of’?

We sadly live in a world nowadays filled with superdupercalifragilisticexpialidocious ‘miracle’ skincare products yet our skin has never been worse!

Miracles are…well…a bit far fetched in our books but magic on the other hand… that’s a different tale…

Transformation Anyone?

Our rejuvenating, natural day cream contains revitalising botanicals that have been used since ancient times by the likes of Cleopatra and the Queen of Sheba (who doesn’t want to be a Queen?!)

Our cream can balance your skin tone, reduce your fine lines and wrinkles, tighten, firm and plump your skin, give you a healthy, natural glow, and take you back to that carefree time when your skin was softer, smoother and more youthful.

Since our cream also contains AHA’s it removes dead skin cells for even smoother skin!

Magic?

Our day cream has already transformed so many of you that we ran out of fingers and toes in the office to count them on a long time ago! And although it is gentle and works in harmony with your skin, it contains extreme power, and the results appear magical.

These magical results occur because we use natural botanicals that have been created by Mother Nature to transform and heal.

When her wisdom is combined with the wisdom of the ancients and our extensive knowledge of the science behind how these botanicals work and how your skin responds to them, magic can and does occur.

What Do the Boffins Say?

Many of the ingredients we use are clinically proven to be effective and studies are available online (great bedtime reading!).

English Lavender to Smooth Wrinkles

Studies have shown that lavender oil is cytophylactic and replaces previously damaged and mature skin with new healthy skin.

It is also an astringent which induces contractions, closing pores, toning and firming the skin. Therefore this tightening effect reduces the appearance of your wrinkles.

English Lavender to Even Skin Tone

Lavender is a powerful cicatrisant, so it helps the scars and other spots on your skin to fade and vanish. It facilitates blood circulation just below the surface of your skin and also helps promote a uniform distribution of melanin.

Amaranth Essence To Prevent Ageing

Amaranth is one of the few plants that shows a high concentration of squalene. Squalene is a powerful antioxidant that prevents UV damage and the formation of age spots. It also promotes skin cell growth.

In addition, amaranth contains high amounts of tocopherols, tocotrienols and linoleic acid. Tocopherols have been proven to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions, which can help protect skin, speed wound healing, and provide anti-ageing effects.

AHA’s For Smoother Skin

Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA’s) have been shown to promote smoother, younger looking skin by increasing the rate of cell renewal and have excellent moisturising properties.

They work by decreasing the compounds that hold dead skin on the surface. By breaking down these compounds, the dead cells slough off, leaving behind a layer of smoother, softer skin.

Rosehip Oil to Regenerate Skin Cells & Increase Collagen

This has been clinically proven to improve the skin’s appearance by regenerating skin cells. It is rich in topical trans-retinoic acid (vitamin A) and is used by dermatologists to increase collagen production in the dermis. It is the gold standard in anti-ageing skincare.

Rosehip Oil to Restore Elastin

Rosehip oil is rich in natural retinoic acid. Research published in the Journal of Dermatological Science reported that treatment with retinoic acid restored the elastic fibres that keep skin taut and reduced the appearance of wrinkles.

Vitamin C to Reduce Wrinkles

Our formula contains aloe vera which is rich in vitamin C. A few clinical studies have demonstrated that vitamin C can improve wrinkles.

One study showed that daily use of a vitamin C formulation for at least three months improved the appearance of fine and coarse wrinkles of the face and neck, as well as improved overall skin texture and appearance.

Skin Essence – We Have You Covered!

There is so much hype these days surrounding skin essences isn’t there?

The reasons why the experts tell you to apply a separate skin essence before you apply your regular moisturiser, oil or serum, is for;

a) increased hydration, b) additional nutrients and c) to create pathways into your skin so your skincare product and its nutrients are absorbed more easily.

However the truth is, it can be a bit of a con! As long as your regular product already contains enough water and essences (like ours does!), then a separate essence becomes an unnecessary expense.

Almond Oil For A Glowing Complexion

Rich in vitamin E, vitamin A, essential fatty acids, potassium, proteins and zinc, almond oil can help revitalize and rejuvenate your skin when it’s looking dull or tired.

Ceramides To Minimise Fine Lines & Wrinkles

The natural oils in our cream contain high levels of ceramides.

Ceramides have water-retaining properties that prevent moisture loss from the skin.

Hydrated skin can help minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, which are often more visible when the skin is dry.

Ceramides can also stimulate the production of keratinocytes, which make keratin. The increase of keratin helps rejuvenate the skin barrier and reduce signs of aging.

Aloe Vera to Smooth Wrinkles

Aloe vera is a mild astringent, and because astringents have properties that attract water, it helps draw moisture away from the skin.

When you apply pure aloe vera directly on to your skin, it can cause it to feel tight. The effect of this in a skin cream is that it helps to smooth out your wrinkles.

Shea Butter For Smoother, Younger Looking Skin

Shea butter’s high concentration of vitamins and fatty acids — combined with its easy-to-spread consistency — makes it a great product for smoothing, soothing, and conditioning your skin.

It contains triterpenes. These naturally occurring chemical compounds are thought to deactivate collagen fibre destruction This can minimise the appearance of fine lines and result in plumper skin.

Vitamin E to Moisturise & Hydrate

Scientific studies have shown that topically applied vitamin E is an excellent moisturiser.

It is also a very effective antioxidant and protects the skin from environmental pollution and oxidative stress.
