What is Encapsulation? The vitamin A active is covered in a protective outer covering that does not release until rubbed into the skin. Once released it is slowly drip fed into the skin rather than delivered all at once lessening the often irritating effects of vitamin A usage. This makes it more suitable for those with sensitive skin or who have reacted to vitamin A previously.
- B3 (Niacinamide) - A potent antioxidant. Regulates melanin and oil production, increases hydration, repairs damaged DNA. Repairing the skins delicate lipid barrier preventing both the proliferation of acne bacteria and water loss via the epidermis.
-
Hyaluronic Acid – A naturally occurring substance within the skin, having the incredible ability to draw in and hold up to one thousand times its weight in water. Hyaluronic Acid binds water to skin cells resulting in the skin becoming more plump, moist, smooth and supple.
B5 (Panthenol) - B5 is both a humectant and an emollient, drawing and retaining moisture in the skin. It improves skin barrier function ensuring moisture does not escape leading to dehydration. Additionally, B5 is anti-inflammatory and wound healing. Increased effectiveness when used together with Hyaluronic Acid. Additionally, B5 helps lessen any irritation vitamin may cause.
