sensitive skin moisturiser / 50ml
It’s a tough world out there for sensitive skin. What’s needed is a "body" guard. Soothing and calming with hydration. But also doing all-day protection duty. That’s why we added an Adaptogen Protection Complex to defend your skin against skin- irritating triggers, like pollution and blue light. Naturally, it’s armed with calming adaptogens (Chaga mushroom) and gentle-yet-effective hydration (low molecular weight HA).
- helps to reduce chronic inflammation and skin reactivity
- hydrates and restores the skin barrier layer
- defends against modern living: stress, pollution and radiation
Apply this Hyaluronic Acid moisturiser morning and night onto clean, cleansed skin for an instant boost of hydration.
Massage into your face and down your neck, not forgetting your décolletage.
Why not add a drop of your favourite oil, serum or booster to create a total skincare solution that works to reduce redness and irritation.

CHAGA MUSHROOM
Chaga is a fungus that grows on birch trees. Chaga is bristling with biochemical defenders because of its precarious life as an uninvited guest. You can spot it a mile off as birch bark is white and chaga is black. The reason being that chaga is packed with UV-blocking melanin. Chaga is also richer in antioxidants than superfood berries. Chaga’s adaptogens make it a valued ingredient in traditional medicine. And more recently skincare. Chaga provides protection against temperature variations, helps restore the skin barrier layer, reduce any signs of redness and sensitivity, strengthen capillaries and reduce persistent redness.
The results: in studies people using this chaga extract reported it ‘as effective as a five-day relaxation cure” in mitigating fatigue lines, dark circles and dullness. 85% perceived a health benefit for their skin and 91% reported increased skin comfort.

ADAPTOGEN PROTECTION COMPLEX
Good things come in threes. Especially in our Adaptogen Protection Complex. Ection. Wild Indigo. Ashwagandha.
All three help to protect your skin, and they work wonders as a skin superhero team.
Ashwagandha is a powerhouse packed with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds that help protect the skin against UV light and environmental pollutants. Wild Indigo is the calming influence that breaks down cortisol from stress and protects skin against damage. Ection is the survivor which protects and restores your skin barrier to help regulate hydration. The results: Our Adaptogen complex defends against pollution, UV, blue light and stress-related ageing.

LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT HYALURONIC ACID
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) provides effective hydration. This clear gloopy substance is naturally produced by your body to keep cell tissues moist so you have bags of it already in your skin and eyes. Topping this up is hugely beneficial. The one problem with just adding it topically is it can sit on the surface. This creates a breathable surface barrier. But doesn't get deep into the skin. So in our formulations we also use Low molecular weight HA to plump the skin and smooth wrinkles. Along with Very Low molecular weight HA to go deeper into the skin with its hydration therapy.
