Macadamia Ternifolia [Macadamia] Nut Oil

Macadamia oil is easily assimilated by the skin as it contains 22 percent omega 7/palmitoleic acid, the substance found in our own natural sebum, making it one of the most skin-compatible oils for use in skincare. As the skin ages, palmitoleic acid production decreases, making skin drier and more crepey. Replenishing mature skin with this lipid helps it retain suppleness by replacing naturally occurring cell lipids, creating younger and fresher looking skin.

Macropiper Excelsum [Kawakawa] Leaf Extract

Kawakawa extract is a powerful native New Zealand botanical that possesses antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties to help soothe and heal irritated skin.

Mangifera Indica [Mango] Seed Butter

Pressed from the kernels of the mango fruit, mango butter is rich in proteins, fats, and Vitamin B, and is an intensely lipid-rich ingredient for nourishing dry skin. It also promotes cell regeneration within the skin and possesses UV ray protection.

Myristic Acid

Sourced from nature, including coconut and palm kernel oils, myristic acid is a saturated fatty acid which enhances the luxurious feel of our formulations. Myristic acid also acts as a penetration enhancer, drawing our other active ingredients deeper into the skin and optimizing it's delivery. Once delivered into the skin by Myristic Acid, our actives are able to impart skin benefits to the maximised levels.
