Sodium Hyaluronate (L) (Hyaluronic Acid): Sodium Hyaluronate (L) (Hyaluronic Acid), chirally correct, is a naturally occurring glycosaminoglycan found throughout the body’s connective tissue. It has been proven to moisturize the skin by attracting moisture in skin cells which reduces dryness and flaking by increasing skin hydration. It can also provide structure and volume to the skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, leaving the skin plump. Sodium Hyaluronate can also reduce skin inflammation, playing a vital role in would healing processes by promoting cell migration and proliferation. It is excellent for treating skin irritation like eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis stemming from a compromised barrier.

Mirabilis Jalapa Extract (Four O’ Clock Flower): Mirabilis Jalapa Extract (Four O’ Clock Flower) is known for its anti- inflammatory properties and is used in skincare products to calm reactive skin, reducing discomfort (like sensations of pain, itching and stinging) and visible redness. It also improves skin’s long-term resilience against sensitivity triggers and protects from free radical damage and environmental stressors. Mirabilis Jalapa Extract supports skin’s barrier function by deeply penetrating and improving hydration levels. This extract is deeply nourishing, can be used to treat wounds and cuts, and helps to rebuild the health of the skin.

Schrophularia Nodosa (Figwort) Extract: Schrophularia Nodosa (Figwort) Extract contains active compounds such as amino acids, flavonoids, saponins, phytosterols, fatty acids, cardiac glycoside, and asparagine. Many of these substances have been known to have a variety of health benefits including antimicrobial, antioxidant and anti- inflammatory actions. Figwort can be applied topically to help treat a range of inflammatory skin conditions, soothe skin rashes and minor lesions or wounds. It is commonly used to treat skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and acne and used to alleviate swelling, itching and heal burns.

Betula Alba Bark (Birch) Extract: Betula Alba Bark (Birch) Extract functions as an astringent since the bark contains a high concentration of tannins. They work by cross-linking with proteins in the skin known as keratins, creating an invisible film that can temporarily degrease skin, tighten, and tone skin, and minimize the appearance of enlarged pores. The tannins in Betula Alba Bark Extract function as antioxidants, using their hydroxyl groups to catch free radicals and stabilize them in the phenolic ring. Birch bark also contains immune stimulation constituents to reduce inflammation, and improves skin response to stressors, while increasing hydration and reducing transepidermal water loss.

Apply Soothe Essence to clean skin as often as needed. Always apply a sunscreen product to provide a protective barrier.
