Live Botanical Renewing Concentrate
Now with astaxanthin!
Designed to restore, firm, and deeply nourish, this balm helps the skin recover from environmental stress while sealing in lasting hydration. Featuring garden grown, full-spectrum rose extract, to capture the complete essence of the flower - delivering its potent antioxidants, phytonutrients, and skin-rejuvenating properties.
A specialized encapsulation process enhances penetration, ensuring key actives like lupine seed, astaxanthin, pomegranate sterols, and seaberry work efficiently to support elasticity and resilience. Cupuaçu butter and raspberry seed oil provide a protective cushion of moisture, while oat and chamomile extracts help soothe and strengthen the skin barrier.
Includes a Botanical Enrichment Method with advanced, potent extractions and encapsulation for optimal bioavailability & efficacy.
Scent: The initial scent is delicate and opens to an uplifting chamomile & delicate rose aroma. The essential oil dilution is equivalent to 0.4%.
Skin Types: Dry skin with little to no oil production OR for those with adequate oil production, this can be used as an overnight moisture mask.
Texture: Juicy, a soft balm that melts on contact with the skin. Offers a velvety, glow-inducing finish.
Batch Variations: We find that the cupuaçu butter can occasionally separate and create soft, meltable beads. If this occurs - simply melt a pea-size amount of the concentrate in your palm and rub your hands together to warm the oils then press it into the skin, followed by a gentle massage.
