NATURAL ACTIVES
Extracts of yarrow, plantain and sage have antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and scar-healing properties. They can be used topically to treat bruises, eczema and other skin inflammations, as well as scratches, minor cuts and wounds, minor burns and insect bites. They also soothe redness and relieve the burning sensation in reactive skin.
Yarrow has skin-calming and soothing effects, being rich in natural phenolic acids and flavonoids that help to reduce irritation, redness, itchiness and discomfort related to skin allergic and inflammatory reactions. Besides that, it is astringent and toning, rejuvenating the skin and improving its texture.
Plantain contains allantoin, aucubin and tannins, that also help with tissue repair, reduce pain and discomfort and create a protective layer on damaged skin while healing it. It has natural antihistamine properties that soothe itching and stinging.
The natural bioactive compounds in sage can stimulate cell regeneration and help treat skin affected by acne, seborrheic dermatitis and atopic dermatitis. One of them is ursolic acid, with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antiseptic properties that help prevent minor infections and contribute to a clean and healthy skin.
Olive oil is rich in vitamin E and A, oleic acids and polyphenols, is anti-inflammatory, it helps fighting free radicals, protects the skin and makes it softer.
Beeswax is rich in fatty acids and vitamin A, it nourishes the skin and helps to naturally maintain its elasticity.
