Chamomile has anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, which assist in reducing redness and inflammation. It accelerates cell and tissue renewal, which assist in the repair of damaged tissues.

Aloe vera contains 75 potentially active ingredients, including vitamins, enzymes, minerals, sugars, lignin, saponins, salicylic acids and amino acids. It contains vitamins A (beta-carotene), C and E, which are antioxidants, that scavenge free radicals.

Aloe Vera has analgesic, antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties and contains salicylic acid that possesses anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.

It increases blood flow and stimulates fibroblasts responsible for repair and healing of the skin.

The enzyme, Bradykinase, helps to reduce excessive inflammation of the skin. Aloe Vera provides calcium, chromium, copper, selenium, magnesium, manganese, potassium, sodium and zinc, which are essential for the proper functioning of various enzyme systems.
It provides monosaccharides and polysaccharides that have anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic properties.

PEG-7 glyceryl cocoate is also produced from coconut oil-derived fatty acids and functions as an emollient, surfactant, and emulsifier. It helps to protect the skin’s natural barrier and retain the skin’s moisture levels.

Sodium lauroyl sarcosinate is also a gentle surfactant, that assists with the solubility of other ingredients.

Sodium lauroyl glutamate is derived from glutamic acid (an amino acid – a building block of protein) and lauric acid (a fatty acid derived from plants). It gently cleanses and moisturises sensitive skin.

Papain, a proteolytic enzyme found in Papaya extract, contains alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) which assist in cell turnover via chemical exfoliation. The sloughing of dead skin cells stimulates new cell formation for a brighter, more youthful-looking complexion, that glows.

This increased turnover removes excess build-up in the pores, prevents congestion and lightens the appearance of hyperpigmentation.

Papaya is also rich in antioxidants — vitamins A, C, and E. These anti-oxidants shield the skin from free radical damage, thereby curbing visible signs of premature aging such as fine lines and laxity.

Papaya extract also contains pantothenic acid, folate, magnesium, and potassium which nourish the skin.

Glycolic, Citric and Lactic acid further increase cell turnover and offer brightening and hydration to the skin.

Jojoba Oil seals the skin with a protective barrier to prevent it from losing moisture.
