Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

Emollient

Oily liquid derived from Coconut Oil. An excellent emollient that penetrates the skin quickly, which is why it is widely used in cosmetics (face creams, lipsticks...)

Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil

Vegetable Oil

Sativa Hemp Oil is rich in Omega-3 and Omega-6, Vitamin E (the most natural antioxidant, capable of safeguarding cells and preventing the formation of free radicals), and B-group vitamins. It possesses moisturizing, nourishing, and revitalizing virtues and is particularly indicated for sensitive, redness-prone, dehydrated, delicate, or mature skin. It has a highly effective anti-aging effect and helps restore elasticity, radiance, and tone. Hemp oil prevents skin redness, helps keep the skin soft and elastic, and strengthens natural immune defenses. Very satisfactory results have also been obtained in the treatment of dry, combination, or impure skin, as it reaches the deepest layers of the epidermis, improving its functions and intervening in the skin's keratinization processes.

Glyceril Stearate

Emulsifier

Substance of vegetable origin, derived from coconut oil, emollient, with high skin compatibility.

Glycerin

Humectant

The name glycerin comes from the Greek "glaucos," meaning sweet. It is a natural and skin-compatible ingredient derived from the saponification of vegetable oil triglycerides. It appears as a dense, odorless, and colorless liquid that has hygroscopic virtues, meaning it is capable of absorbing water and moisture. This property makes it an excellent nutrient and moisturizer for the skin. Glycerin also performs an antiseptic action due to its ability to dehydrate bacteria.

Cetearyl Alcohol

Emulsifier

Fatty substance of vegetable origin, derived from coconut or palm oil, emollient, highly skin-compatible.

Aloe Barbadensis Lesf Extract

Plant extract

Aloe is a succulent plant that prefers warm climates. It is rich in complex sugars with immuno-stimulating action and other substances of great nutritional, anti-inflammatory, antifungal, and analgesic value. Aloe gel has a lasting and pronounced moisturizing and nourishing action on the skin; thanks to the polysaccharides it is rich in, it increases the firmness and tonicity of the epidermis, maintaining the right hydro-lipid balance. The soothing and softening characteristics of aloe juice make it suitable for preventing skin redness and irritation. Exceptional for dry and dehydrated skin.

In cosmetics, it is widely used for its high skin compatibility and is recommended in cases of skin dryness and dehydration.

Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil

Vegetable oil

This is an oil, or rather a liquid wax, pure, unadulterated, cold-pressed without solvents, which is obtained from the seeds of Jojoba (Simmondsia Chinensis), a plant native to the desert areas of Arizona, Southern California, and Mexico. Jojoba wax is distinguished by a unique structure different from any other vegetable oil: in fact, while all other seed oils are made up of fatty acid esters linked to a glycerin molecule (triglycerides), Jojoba oil is composed of a mixture of esters and unsaturated fatty alcohols devoid of glycerin molecules. This very particular conformation, practically unique among vegetable oils, gives life to a pure product, free of stearin, free fatty acids, odor, and toxicity, rich in natural antioxidants and highly resistant to rancidity. It is known for its softening, emollient, soothing, moisturizing, and healing power. It also gives the skin renewed elasticity and radiance due to its keratoplastic action. Ideal for dry and wrinkled skin, in sun products, and in baby products. It boasts a speed and ease of absorption and skin penetration superior to other vegetable oils, thanks to its linear and slim molecule and a remarkable compatibility with the structure of the skin.

Vitis Vinifera Seed Oil

Plant extract

Red Grapevine is used above all against free radicals and oxidative stress. Red grape seeds contain Proanthocyanidins, molecules that possess an interesting property: they are radical scavengers, meaning they are able to "capture" free radicals, neutralizing them and making them no longer harmful to our body's cells. Its use in cosmetic preparations is mainly positioned as an anti-aging skin treatment, with vaso-protective and stimulating effects on microcirculation functionality.

Hemp and Aloe Body Milk Origin and Properties

Oryza Sativa Bran Oil

Vegetable oil

Rice oil is extracted from the germ and the films that externally wrap the rice grain. It is rich in oleic acid (monounsaturated, typical of olive oil), linoleic acid (polyunsaturated, typical of vegetable oils), and Vitamin E. Rice oil is highly appreciated in the cosmetics industry for its emollient, moisturizing, U.V.-protective, and anti-inflammatory power. It prevents premature skin aging, which is why it is widely used in anti-aging formulations.

Chamomilla Recutitia Flower Extract

Plant extract

Chamomile (Matricaria Chamomilla or Matricaria Recutita) is an annual herbaceous plant; its name comes from the Greek "Chamomilla" and means "little apple" because its scent recalls that of Rennet apples. Chamomile is rich in flavonoids and vitamins B1 and C, which, together with the components of the essential oil (alpha-bisabolol, guaiazulene, chamazulene...), characterize it for its excellent local and internal anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, digestive, and calming properties. It possesses notable nutritional qualities for hair and the scalp; in fact, it is commonly used as a decongestant compress and as a lightening agent. Chamomile oil has always been used to calm redness and skin inflammation.

Althaea Officinalis Root Extract

Plant extract

Marshmallow (Althaea officinalis) is a widespread plant in Europe that grows in damp places, along canals and ditches, and belongs to the Malvaceae family. The importance of Marshmallow in cosmetic use is primarily linked to its mucilage content—substances characteristic of plant cells that are recognized for providing a useful moisturizing and anti-inflammatory effect on the skin and mucous membranes. When applied to the skin's surface, these natural polysaccharides form a thin, elastic, transparent film with an isoepidermal pH, capable of transferring water to the stratum corneum, thereby giving the skin elasticity and hydration. In unfavorable climatic conditions, the thin film formed by the mucilage dries on the outside, creating a genuine hygrometric shield that continues to hydrate the skin's surface, hindering dehydration processes. Thanks to their high mucilage content, Marshmallow extracts are thus characterized by excellent moisturizing, emollient, and decongestant properties, making them excellent ingredients for the preparation of cosmetics for dry, delicate, and redness-prone skin.

Calendula Officinalis Extract

Plant extract

Calendula (Calendula Officinalis), an herbaceous plant native to North Africa, is rich in flavonoids and is attributed with emollient, soothing, refreshing, and re-epithelizing properties. It is one of the most widely used medicinal plants in cosmetics due to its ability to promote cellular regeneration, as well as its corrective activity on the tissues' microcirculation. In fact, it stimulates epidermal turnover by promoting collagen production. Finally, Calendula extracts improve the hydration balance of the epidermis and stimulate blood flow, making the skin more elastic and resistant to mechanical and chemical irritants.

Echinacea Angustifolia Extract

Plant extract

Echinacea Angustifolia is a perennial plant in the daisy family, native to the prairies of North America. Native Americans already used it to treat infections, wounds, and eczema, and as a general painkiller. Echinacea is traditionally used for its immunostimulating, healing, and re-epithelizing qualities. It is rich in caffeic acid (which has antibiotic properties) and polysaccharides (which stimulate cellular regeneration) and possesses remarkable anti-hyaluronidase properties, meaning it protects connective tissues; for this reason, it is often used in anti-wrinkle creams. Indicated for dry and irritated skin, it performs a firming and smoothing action.
