Naturally nourishing ingredients are a wonderful addition to any skincare routine.

Plants which withstand harsh conditions and protect and repair themselves in their natural form often have similar nurturing effects on the skin - working to boost the appearance and overall health of your complexion.

Moringa is such an ingredient. Native to the Himilayas but also found in tropical areas, it is known for it's ability to trive and grow rapidly with in tropical climates with little to no water.

Commonly referred to as 'the tree of life', Moringa is packed with moisturising and protective properties which make it a magical ingredient to use on the skin.

What makes Moringa so wonderful?

The Moringa plant is filled to bursting with very high concentrations of vitamins and nutrients which help to strengthen and beautify your skin.

Moringa is rich in Vitamin A - a wonderful anti-ageing ingredient which works to encourage skin cells to renew themselves to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Cell regeneration is integral to achieve a radiant, youthful complexion as well as keeping breakouts at bay making Moringa a wonderful ingredient for both mature and acne-prone skin types.

Vitamin E is also a major component of this wonderful ingredient, contributing to its moisture boosting and antioxidant qualities. Ideal for those with dry, dehydrated skin, Moringa really helps moisture retention in the skin, leaving the complexion plump and luminious.

Moringa's antioxidant properties also make it a wonderful ingredient to include in skincare as our skin is increasingly vulnerable to the impacts of air pollution. Antioxidant rich Vitamin E helps to create a barrier on your skin, helping to protect your complexion from environmental agressors and free radical damage.

Boasting so many transformative qualities, Moringa is the new must-have ingredient to include in your everyday routine.
