FREE FROM LIST
Australian Lemon Myrtle Extract

A polyphenol-rich botanical that helps protect skin against environmental oxidation and aggressors such as pollution that can trigger overproduction of oil. Known to help reduce inflammation and balance sebum levels.

Rice Bran Oil

A plant-based antioxidant powerhouse that protects against free radicals and visible signs of premature aging. With a high concentration of oleic and linolenic acids, it is ideal for acne prone skin. This multitasking active provides hydration without clogging pores, for skin that is supple, soft and smooth.

Triple Hydration Complex

An innovative, ultra-hydrating skincare technology. Helps to maintain skin hydration and firmness, while strengthening skin’s protective barrier to prevent trans-epidermal water loss.

Baobab Leaf Extract

A renewing plant extract known to help improve skin elasticity and tone, while lifting, smoothing and improving the appearance of wrinkles and visible signs of fatigue.

Calming Duo

A blend of potent botanical compounds derived from Wetland Grasses and the Poria Mushroom. Calms irritation and redness, while helping to strengthen the skin barrier and increase resilience from external stressors.

Aloe Vera

An anti-oxidant-rich, anti-inflammatory prized for its powerful calming and rebalancing properties - reducing redness and comforting irritated, reactive skin, while flooding skin with moisture.

Bio-Optimized Green Tea

A potent, detoxifying molecule, known to be 25x more effective than Vitamin C. Relieves inflammation, protects against free radicals, and inhibits the destruction of collagen, for skin that is smooth, toned and more resilient.

A mattifying moisturizer, The Light Cream, with our patented TFC8® technology, has a unique capacity to specifically address sebum overproduction while maintaining optimal hydration and protection. Understanding the normal physiology of skin renewal at a cellular level has enabled us to develop a lightweight formula that meets the needs of combination to oily skin types and performs in humid and congested climates. It is exceptionally effective at preventing excess shine while returning the complexion to a balanced, healthy-looking state.
