the ingredients
The result is a breathtaking array of synergistic, supercharged products comprised of organic wildcrafted ingredients, sourced from around the globe. We've included helichrysum, chamomile, rose, and aspen in this nourishing elixir—we're breaking down each of these below.
helichrysum (immortelle)
Helichrysum is a darling of the natural skin care world. When used in skin care products, it is typically used in essential oil form.
It is rumored that the name Immortelle is also in reference to the plant's incredible anti-aging benefits. Helichrysum is an emollient, moisturizing oil that can help reduce the appearance of age spots, fine lines and wrinkles, and even the appearance of skin tone and texture.
ENVIRONMENTAL STRESSORS
Stocked full of antioxidants, this essential oil can also help protect against environmental stressors. Antioxidants help revive the skin to it’s full radiance by working their magic on the appearance of dark spots caused by sun damage.
This oil is ideal for taking care of sun exposed skin, as it is incredibly soothing and rejuvenating.
WHO SHOULD USE HELICHRYSUM?
It is gentle enough for even those of us with sensitive skin, making it an accessible ingredient for all skin types.
A huge draw to immortelle is that it can serve dual purposes, by both moisturizing while still working effectively on oily skin. Those with oily skin may find it works to reduce the appearance of oil build ups while still delivering the moisture the skin needs. This oil works on reducing the appearance of blemishes, which can come hand in hand with oily skin.
Researchers are excited not only about chamomile's health benefits, but its potential in skin care. Many active ingredients in chamomile are powerful, including the flavonoids apigenin, luteolin, and quercetin, and the volatile oils including alpha-bisabolol and matricin.
These constituents all contribute to chamomile's antioxidant properties. Overall? Chamomile is calming and soothing.
TEMPORARY RELIEF
Applied topically, chamomile is known to temporarily calm occasional red, dry, and irritated skin.
ANTI-AGING
Chamomile contains numerous antioxidants that help protect the skin from environmental stressors and reduce the appearance of aging.
rose
Ancient Romans are said to have preferred baths with rose water, while Cleopatra used it in her various facemasks. Like most plants, roses have a lot of great benefits for the skin.
Here are just a few:
NATURAL TONER
Rose helps minimize the appearance of pores and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
GENTLE AND MOISTURIZING
Rose is great for dry skin, as it helps increase its ability to hold onto hydration. It helps calm and soothe, making it perfect for sensitive skin.
SOURCE OF VITAMIN C
This vitamin is great for protecting the skin from environmental stressors, and preserving a youthful look to your complexion. Rose is a natural source of this potent vitamin.
ANTIOXIDANTS
Rose has some powerful antioxidants that can firm and tighten your appearance.
aspen
Aspen Bark extract acts as a natural preservative, but this ingredient also has skin conditioning properties. No surprise, as when you're dealing with natural ingredients, they often impart more than one benefit to your formula!
NATURAL PRESERVATIVE
The main use of aspen bark extract in skin care is as a natural preservative. An excellent alternative to parabens, it protects your product from contamination. This helps to extend the shelf life of natural skin care products so you can use them until they're gone.
CONDITIONING
But aspen's benefits don't end there. Because of it's natural salicin content, it gives you a soothing feeling. The extract also has a conditioning property, helping to make skin smooth and soft to the touch.
GENTLE
Finally, the ingredient has a very low irritation potential, meaning that even those with sensitive skin can use it without worry. That's certainly something you can't say about chemical preservatives!
