  Licorice Root Extract

  Gentle skin lightener with antioxidant and anti inflammatory skin benefits.

• 

  Wild Yam

  Wild yam (Dioscorea villosa) is a North American plant traditionally used in herbal medicine. Its root extract is included in skincare for its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties and is often marketed as a natural alternative to hormone replacement therapy due to its supposed phytoestrogen content. However, its estrogenic effects are controversial, as diosgenin, a component of wild yam, can be converted into steroid hormones in a labs setting but not in the skin. Regardless, if you are pregnant or have hyperpigmentation like melasma, you may want to avoid using this ingredient.

• 

  Peptides

  Peptides are a diverse group of ingredients, each offering unique benefits, such as boosting collagen production, firming skin, or improving texture by coating the skin's surface. However, peptides can inactivate other ingredients, so it's crucial to use peptide-based products in the correct step of your skincare routine and ensure all ingredients are compatible. Since peptides often struggle to penetrate the skin, they work best in a routine specifically designed to enhance their absorption. To maximize their effectiveness, your entire skincare regimen should focus on optimizing penetration, maintaining stability, and minimizing reactions with incompatible ingredients.

This moisturizing humectant temporarily plumps fine lines and wrinkles. HA makes skin feel dewy and look radiant and glowing. Great for oily skin because it feels lightweight and non-greasy on the skin. Safe for all skin types. HA helps other skincare products get into the skin. This antiaging and hydrating ingredient can radically alter how your skin routine works by affecting penetration and absorption of other ingredients- so make sure you use it in the correct step of your skin care routine.
