True Botanicals

Ingredients

• Camellia sinensis (green and white tea) leaf extract*

  Green and White Tea leaves contain the potent antioxidant catechins which protect your skin, scalp and hair from the oxidative stress that accompanies sun exposure. Green Tea has been shown to prevent the damage associated with skin cancer, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation. Tea polyphenols have natural astringent, toning, soothing, and anti-inflammatory properties and prevent the enzymes that attack and break down your body's natural production of collagen and elastase.

• Water

• Decyl glucoside (glucose-based surfactant)

  Retaining the moisturizing properties of the coconut oil from which it is derived, Decyl Glucoside is a surfactant that also works to moisturize, smooth, and soften the skin.

• Glycerin (vegetable glycerin)*

  Derived from plant seed oils like coconut, or non-GMO soy, Glycerin delivers a whole lotta goodness to our skin. A humectant and an emollient, Glycerin helps maintain water balance on an intercellular level and works to make skin moist, soft and smooth. Glycerin also promotes skin matriculation and gives your skin cells the little boost they need.

• Bulnesia sarmienti wood oil

• Cinnamomum zeylanicum blume (cinnamon leaf)

• Aloe barbadensis (aloe vera) leaf juice

  Your epidermis adores this moisture-preserving humectant for good reason. The more it can prevent moisture loss, the fewer extra ingredients it needs to help add it back in. Besides preserving the epidermis water content, Aloe Vera also helps improve the skin's natural firmness via antioxidants like beta-Carotene, and vitamins C and E.

• Xanthan gum

  A plant-based thickening and emulsifying agent, Xanthan Gum adds volume and density to our products.

• Sorbitan oleate (from vegetables)

  Sorbitan Oleate is an emulsifier derived from oleic acid and hexitol anhydrides derived from sorbitol. It is known to increase skin's water retention and moisturize the skin.

• Camellia oleifera (green tea) seed oil*

  Emollient, nutritive and rich in antioxidant polyphenols, this oil actually dissolves the oil complex that holds dead skin cells together. Part exfoliant, part lubricant, green tea oil reduces flaking and improves appearance.

• Olea europaea (olive) fruit oil

  Olea Europaea Fruit Oil (Olive Oil): we love it on our salads and with our bread. But did you know it has incredible benefits for your skin? Rich in nutrients like the fatty acids oleic, palmitic, and linoleic acids that your skin needs to moisturize, Olive Oil is also an antimicrobial, with properties that inhibit bacterial enzymes.

• Citric acid (occurs naturally in citrus fruits)

  Derived from citrus fruits, Citric Acid can help shed dead, flaky skin and encourage cell turnover, helping to reduce the appearance of age spots, scars, wrinkles and improve overall tone and texture of the skin.

• Phenethyl alcohol***

  Finding a preservative system that will withstand the test of time without risk to human health is a challenge. Derived from rose, Phenethyl Alcohol is just that and is used to preserve the integrity of our ingredients.
