What It’s Good For

Key Ingredients

DESERT PLANT EXTRACT

Desert Plant Extract, also known as Imperata Cylindrica, has roots that contain high concentrations of potassium which is known to provide immediate and lasting hydration for dry skin. Native to many of Earth’s deserts, this plant is especially prolific in the Australian Outback and is believed to have been used as a substitute for salt by indigenous Australians of centuries past.
LEMON FRUIT EXTRACT

Lemon Fruit Extract has a high percentage of Vitamin C and is known for its astringent qualities. Within our formulas, it helps freshen and stimulate skin.
