Ascorbyl Glucoside (Vitamin C)
A water-soluble and more stable derivative of vitamin C in skincare, it provides a gentler alternative to traditional forms. Upon absorption into the skin, it converts into ascorbic acid, retaining all the potent benefits of pure vitamin C. This compound contributes to brightening and evening out skin tone while acting as an antioxidant to combat free radicals. When paired with niacinamide, a synergistic effect enhances its overall effectiveness. The gentle nature of Ascorbyl Glucoside, compared to L-ascorbic acid, makes it generally well-tolerated, even on sensitive skin. However, as with any active ingredient, a patch test is recommended when incorporating formulations containing Ascorbyl Glucoside into your skincare routine.

Renowned for its ability to neutralise free radicals, it provides robust protection against oxidative stress induced by environmental factors like UV radiation and pollution. The extract boasts remarkable moisturising, hydrating, and brightening properties. Its unique ability to regulate sebum production makes it a versatile and excellent choice, catering not only to troubled skin but also to the needs of those with dry and sensitive skin.

Blueberry Fruit Extract (Vaccinium Angustifolium)
Vaccinium angustifolium extract is not only a delightful addition to your diet but also proves fantastic when applied topically on the skin. Abundant in antioxidants, including polyphenols, it excels in blocking blue light exposure, although it is not a substitute for SPF sunscreens. With its rich Vitamin C content, it brings anti-inflammatory and astringent properties to the table. Blueberry extract also boasts collagen-boosting and hydrating attributes, making it a superb addition to any skincare formulation.
Hyaluronic Acid
Is it still a secret? Hyaluronic acid stands as a cornerstone among remarkable skincare ingredients. Naturally present in the skin, it possesses the remarkable ability to attract and retain moisture - up to 1000 times its weight. By deeply hydrating the outermost layer of the skin, it imparts a visibly ‘plump’ appearance and diminishes the look of fine lines and wrinkles. With its fast-absorbing and gentle nature, it caters to all skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin. This versatile ingredient harmonises effortlessly with other powerhouse ingredients like retinol and BHA’s such as salicylic acid, amplifying their effectiveness in skincare formulations.
