Benefits:

Rose Water: Rose water is considered as a rich source of antioxidants, which can help strengthen skin cells and regenerate skin tissue and protect the cells in the skin against damage. Rose water also has anti-inflammatory properties, which means it can be put on the skin to soothe the irritation caused by conditions, such as eczema and rosacea.  Rose water acts as an inhibitor against elastase and collagenase, which are both harmful to the skin. This can help soothe the skin and reduce redness, as well as act as an anti-aging product by reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles.

Hibiscus Extract: Hibiscus extract is good for softening skin as it works like an emollient, it a good antioxidant that firms and tones the skin. This powerful firming agent has a proven calming effect that instantly smooths wrinkles giving a person a youthful, healthy glow.  It also unclogs closed pores and is a good natural remedy for acne. 

Oat Extract: Oats are naturally rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants and lipids. Oat extract helps to keep skin hydrated by forming an occlusive layer on the surface that retains water in the skin. It also imparts moisturizing, soothing, conditioning, and nourishing qualities, significantly improving skin dryness and roughness. Oat extract has antioxidant properties due to the presence of different types of phenols including ferulic and caffeic acids. It also contains flavonoids that are strong UVA screens.  Oat extract is suited for all skin types including sensitive and problem skin such as acne, eczema and psoriasis. In a study published on NIH, extracts of colloidal oatmeal were found to induce the expression of genes related to epidermal differentiation, tight junctions and lipid regulation in skin, and provide pH-buffering capacity. Colloidal oatmeal boosted the expression of multiple target genes related to skin barrier and resulted in recovery of barrier damage in an in vitro model of atopic dermatitis. In addition, an investigator-blinded study was performed with 50 healthy female subjects who exhibited bilateral moderate to severe dry skin on their lower legs. Subjects were treated with a colloidal oatmeal skin protectant lotion. Clinically, the colloidal oatmeal lotion showed significant clinical improvements in skin dryness, moisturization, and barrier. Taken together, these results demonstrate that colloidal oatmeal can provide clinically effective benefits for dry and compromised skin by strengthening skin barrier.

Green Tea Extract: Green Tea Extract is known to exhibit effects that help diminish the signs of aging, such as wrinkles and fine lines. It is commonly used as a valuable ingredient in face washes, moisturizers, serums, and other skin care products that work to calm irritation, even out skin discoloration, protect the skin against UV radiation, diminish the appearance of cellulite, soothe redness and swelling, and repair damage. Products enriched with Green Tea Extracts are known to further support skin health by moisturizing, stimulating circulation, and regulating sebum production, thereby exhibiting a positive effect on the complexion’s overall tone, texture, strength, and resilience. It is especially beneficial for skin afflicted with the discomforts associated with acne, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, and other conditions that are similarly characterized by dryness, itchiness, inflammation, and irritation. Its antimicrobial and astringent properties along with its ability to balance the skin’s oil production and minimize the appearance of enlarged pores make Green Tea Extract ideal for use in products that target acne breakouts. Its exfoliating property helps decrease the appearance and occurrence of blackheads while eliminating dead skin, dirt, bacteria, and other pollutants on the skin’s surface, thus promoting the skin’s rejuvenation and renewal.

Jasmine Absolute: Jasmine Absolute rejuvenating the skin and uplifts the senses. Some of the traditionally reputed benefits of Jasmine in folk medicine include thermogenic, antiseptic, emollient, aphrodisiac, relaxant, and tonic properties as well as extensive use in supporting reproductive health. While there is some scientific support from contemporary studies on the antiseptic value of Jasmine oil, the main benefit of this absolute now lies in its olfactory appeal.  Recently, Jasmine Absolute is known for its aromatherapeutic application as a dually arousing and calming scent, as well as a mood enhancer. In one formal study, inhaling Jasmine oil increased behavioral arousal and resulted in test subjects reporting more positive, energetic, and romantic feelings, while in another study, the scent of Jasmine oil helped to manage symptoms of anxiety, enacting a calming influence on mood. True to its fragrant versatility, context matters for leveraging the power of Jasmine!

Vegetable Glycerin: Vegetable Glycerin is a natural source of moisture and is also helping the skin retain moisture.
