BOTANICAL POWER
Elderflowers are rich in antioxidant and antibacterial flavonoids such as quercetin and isoquercitrin. Its extracts have softening, astringent and anti-inflammatory properties, helping to improve sagging skin while keeping it hydrated. They also help fight the first signs of ageing, balance excessive oiliness and protect the skin from sun damage and other environmental factors.
The leaves of lemongrass contain citral, an anti-fungal and antibacterial compound that helps to keep the skin clean and protected. They also have astringent and antioxidant properties that can help minimize facial pores, soothe irritated skin and relieve redness caused by sun exposure. Their extracts can as well contribute to reduce the oiliness of the skin without losing its natural radiance.
Lemon essential oil is anti-fungal, antibacterial, antiviral and astringent. It can help reduce sebum production in the sebaceous glands, regulate the size of facial pores and contribute to a more toned complexion. It has a light and fresh scent, keeps the skin hydrated and looking healthy.
