A DESCRIPTION OF EVERY INGREDIENT IN THE BALM

Cera Alba - beeswax:

Gives the skin elasticity and forms a protective layer on it that keeps it from drying out, without clogging pores. It has an aseptic effect, which soothes irritated skin and protects minor wounds from infection. It is rich in vitamin A, which supports skin renewal, as it is key to building new cells.

Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil - jojoba oil:

Provides long-lasting moisture, softens and smooths the skin and reduces inflammation. It helps renew and maintain healthy skin. It doesn't leave a greasy film on the skin.

Caprylic/Capric Triglycerides:

A natural ingredient that acts as an antioxidant and contributes to smoother, softer skin. It is an emollient, which means it forms a protective layer on the skin that prevents it from drying out and keeps it moisturised.

Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil - sunflower oil:

A light oil that absorbs quickly and is especially beneficial for dry and dehydrated skin. It helps the skin synthesise its own lipids and restore its protective barrier. It contributes to smoother, healthier skin and reduces irritation and inflammation.

Theobroma Cacao Seed Butter - cocoa butter:

A light butter that is excellent for caring for dry skin. It nourishes, prevents moisture loss and helps renew the skin, giving it suppleness and softness. It also contains natural antioxidants that protect against free radicals and contribute to a youthful-looking complexion.

Butyrospermum Parkii Butter - shea butter:

Stimulates the regeneration of skin cells, restores elasticity and calms skin inflammation. It is rich in vitamins and fatty acids that deeply nourish the skin, protect it from drying out and keep it soft, smooth and healthy.

Squalane:

A natural moisturiser that helps regulate skin hydration. It also restores the skin's lipid barrier, increases its suppleness and gives it softness, smoothness and a youthful look.

Niacinamide:

Improves skin hydration, which makes it excellent for caring for dry and dehydrated skin. It also helps maintain a healthy skin barrier, improves skin texture and reduces redness. At the same time it has an anti-inflammatory effect and stimulates collagen production, which leads to firmer, younger-looking skin.

Aqua - water:

Moisturises the skin and acts as a solvent for the other water-soluble ingredients.

Glycerin - vegetable glycerin:

A plant-derived ingredient that occurs naturally in the biological membranes of our body, so the skin tolerates it well. It is a humectant that draws in even more moisture. It increases skin elasticity and gives it radiance, smoothness and a beautiful appearance.

Polyglyceryl-3 Polyricinoleate:

A plant-derived emulsifier that allows oil-based and water-based ingredients to blend. It is well tolerated even by sensitive skin and is pleasant to use, as it doesn't leave a greasy feeling but leaves the skin soft and protected.

Mel - honey:

Even Cleopatra used this rich ingredient in her beauty routine for beautiful, glowing skin. No wonder, as honey has a whole host of benefits! Dry and dehydrated skin? Honey will moisturise it. A damaged barrier and inflamed skin? Let honey soothe it with its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Irritated skin? Honey takes care of that too, as it speeds up the healing of small wounds and has an antimicrobial effect.

Panthenol:

Acts as an effective moisturiser that helps restore and maintain optimal skin hydration. It also has anti-inflammatory properties that soothe irritated skin, speed up healing and give the skin smoothness and suppleness. In addition, panthenol supports a healthy skin barrier and the renewal of skin tissue, which contributes to healthier, revitalised skin.

Allantoin:

Soothes and softens the skin, helps renew damaged cells, speeds up wound healing and reduces inflammation, contributing to healthy, smoother skin. It is an extremely effective moisturiser that protects the skin and improves its texture.

Tocopheryl Acetate (vitamin E derivative):

An antioxidant that protects the skin from free radicals and prevents oxidative damage to cells.

Parfum:

Makes your skin smell lovely after using the balm. In larger amounts it can irritate the skin, but the balm contains it in low concentrations that are not harmful to health and are completely safe to use.

Tocopherol - vitamin E:

This vitamin is a natural component of the cell membrane. Through its antioxidant activity it reduces the photocarcinogenic effect of UV radiation, as it protects the skin from free radicals and prevents oxidative damage to cells.

Sodium Benzoate:

A naturally derived preservative that keeps the balm from spoiling before its expiry date.

Potassium Sorbate:

A naturally derived preservative that keeps the balm from spoiling before its expiry date.

Citric Acid:

Has antioxidant properties and helps remove dead skin cells and form new ones. It softens and smooths the skin and also regulates the pH of the balm.
