Key Ingredients & Why They're There
Non-Nano Zinc Oxide: A mineral UV filter that creates a physical barrier on the skin's surface, reflecting both UVA and UVB rays. Non-nano particle size means it does not penetrate the skin barrier. Also reduces inflammation, soothes rashes, regulates oil gland activity, and supports wound healing — making it effective beyond SPF alone.
Murumuru Butter: A deeply penetrating butter high in vitamin A, lauric acid, and antioxidants. Supports cell turnover and UV protection reinforcement. Absorbs well and leaves skin soft without heaviness.
Shea Butter: Deeply moisturizing and anti-inflammatory. Boosts collagen production, supports cell regeneration, and soothes eczema, dermatitis, and psoriasis. Minimizes the appearance of stretch marks and scars over time.
Kokum Butter: Lightweight and non-greasy. Balances oil production, soothes acne-prone and irritated skin, and improves elasticity. One of the reasons this cream works for oily skin types.
Hemp Seed Oil: Balances oil production, reduces inflammation, and supports skin cell regeneration. High in omegas and antioxidants. Contributes to the formula's non-comedogenic profile.
Safflower Oil: Lightweight and non-greasy. Reduces hyperpigmentation, unclogs pores, and provides antioxidant protection with vitamin E. Keeps the formula's texture appropriate for daily face use.
Cetearyl Alcohol: A plant-derived fatty alcohol that stabilizes and thickens the formula, giving it a smooth, cohesive texture that spreads evenly without greasiness. Despite the name, it's not a drying alcohol — it's deeply emollient, softens skin on contact, and helps other ingredients stay evenly distributed throughout.
Essential Oils: Geranium rose tightens and clarifies — balancing oil production and keeping bacteria in check. Frankincense works beneath the surface, refining pores, encouraging cell renewal, and calming inflammation over time. Lavender soothes what's reactive, red, or irritated, bringing the skin back to neutral. Together they form a quiet, functional trio — nothing decorative about them.
Rosemary Oleoresin Extract: A natural antioxidant preservative derived from rosemary leaf. Protects the formula's oils and butters from oxidation and rancidity, extending shelf life without synthetic preservatives. Works quietly in the background — you won't smell it or feel it, but it's what keeps the formula stable and fresh over time.
