BOTANICAL POWER

Yarrow is well known for its soothing effects on the skin, being rich in natural phenolic acids and flavonoids that help it to regenerate. Its extracts have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, rejuvenate the skin and promote its smoothness.

French lavender extracts also help to soothe and soften the skin. As well as having antioxidant properties, they also act as a natural antiseptic due to the presence of bioactive compounds such as linalool, lavandulol, geraniol and eucalyptol, which help to keep the skin clean and healthy.

The roots and leaves of comfrey contain allantoin and rosmarinic acid, which help the growth of new skin cells and have soothing and firming properties. Its extracts are also very rich in substances that reduce inflammation, particularly on drier or irritated skin.

Sweet orange essential oil is antioxidant and antimicrobial. It helps to control the excess oil on the skin and to restore its elasticity, tightens pores and also promotes the fading of wrinkles and dark spots. It has a comforting and uplifting aroma, soothes and protects the skin.

What PEOPLE say

"I used the Escudo de Gaia serum at the end of summer after months of using loads of sunscreen. My skin needed a boost and the serum was lovely. It smells great, but it is subtle, nothing like perfume which I dislike in face products. Just three drops after washing my face and then I'd apply my regular moisturizer. It didn't make my skin oily and felt very refreshing. A very nice treat for your skin!"
