The ingredients that make a difference
SEA BUCKTHORN
Sea Buckthorn promotes skin hydration, elasticity, cell regeneration, and even helps treat and prevent acne. Sea Buckthorn oil has anti-inflammatory properties that help reduce swelling and redness associated with many skin conditions, including eczema, psoriasis and rosacea.
BLACK CURRANT
Black currant keeps the skin hydrated, firm, and younger-looking. It also contains antioxidants to nourish dry skin, and can help with eczema.

Best used as the first cleanse to break down makeup, SPF, and any oils (sebum, sweat) on the surface of the skin. Follow with a water-based cleanse, like our Chai soaps, to remove any impurities in the pores.
