JUICY SKIN GEL HYDRATOR (MOISTURIZER) 50ML (100 USES)

This may be the best moisturizer around ....

A lightweight gel that uses natural extracts to hydrate, sooth, brighten and plump skin. 

Especially good for dull skin with hyperpigmentation or age spots. Suitable and safe for sensitive and acne prone skin. 

Bilberry extract is rich in antioxidants and vitamins, particularly vitamin C, which help protect the skin from oxidative stress and promote a brighter, more even complexion. Its anti-inflammatory properties can also reduce redness and improve skin tone.

MATRYXL 

Matrixyl 3000 is a highly effective anti-aging ingredient that promotes skin health by stimulating collagen production and improving skin elasticity. This peptide blend, composed of two matrikines, works by mimicking the skin’s natural repair processes, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin. By boosting collagen levels, Matrixyl 3000 supports a firmer, smoother complexion and enhances the skin's overall structure. Additionally, it promotes skin hydration and resilience, making it ideal for combating signs of aging and restoring a youthful, plump appearance to the skin.

PENTAVITIN

Pentavitin is a powerful, plant-derived ingredient known for its exceptional moisturizing properties, making it a standout for skin hydration and overall health. It works by creating a deep, long-lasting bond with the skin, ensuring continuous hydration for up to 72 hours. Unlike other moisturizers that sit on the surface, Pentavitin penetrates the outer layer of skin, locking in moisture and strengthening the skin’s barrier. This helps prevent dryness, flaking, and irritation, leaving the skin soft, smooth, and supple. Its ability to attract and retain moisture makes it especially beneficial for dry, sensitive, or compromised skin, offering immediate relief and lasting hydration.

 

 BETA GLUCAN 

Beta-glucan is a powerful skincare ingredient known for its ability to soothe, heal, and protect the skin, making it particularly beneficial for those with acne-prone skin. As a natural polysaccharide, beta-glucan helps to strengthen the skin’s barrier, locking in moisture and promoting hydration, which is crucial for maintaining balanced skin without clogging pores. It also has anti-inflammatory properties, reducing redness and irritation often associated with acne, while accelerating wound healing, making it effective in calming active breakouts and reducing acne scars. Additionally, beta-glucan enhances the skin’s immune response, offering protection against environmental stressors, further supporting a clearer and healthier complexion

 

Gotu Kola Extract

Gotu Kola extract is known for its healing and rejuvenating properties. It stimulates collagen synthesis, improves circulation, and helps reduce the appearance of scars and dark spots, leading to brighter, more youthful-looking skin.

 

 Cucumber

Cucumber is known for its hydrating and soothing properties. It contains vitamins C and K, which help reduce inflammation and puffiness, brighten the skin, and improve its overall texture and appearance.

Licorice Root

Licorice root extract contains glabridin, which inhibits the production of melanin, helping to fade dark spots and hyperpigmentation. It also has anti-inflammatory properties that soothe and brighten the skin, promoting a more even and luminous complexion.

How to use:

Use half a pump of the pipette on clean, damp skin morning and night. If you are also using the complete peptide botox serum use after this step. Follow with sunscreen if using in the morning.
