Inside Summer Lilac: The Botox Plant

Image
Hibiscus has been used in beauty and hair formulations for ages. It is known to have botox-like properties, improve skin tone and radiance, fight oxidative damage + skin infections as well as provide cleansing and moisturizing attributes. (1) We love everything about this potent powder! It has natural astringent qualities controlling oil production, tightening and cleansing pores. It is packed with Vitamin C, AHA, and antioxidants promoting collagen production and evening out skin tone to leave your skin feeling tighter, radiant, and more youthful. Get your hands on our The Good Mess Mask where Hibiscus flower shines as the second ingredient giving it its rosy color and potent formulation. 1 - Yin Wei Mak et al.

Inside Summer Lilac: Mango Seed Butter

Image
  This non-comedogenic butter is packed with vitamins (A, E + C) and antioxidants to help the skin heal, create a protective barrier thus keeping it hydrated (1), has antibacterial properties and protects the skin from UV exposure & environmental damage. (2) What is not to love?   I love the non-greasy high fatty acid butter because it absorbs quickly into the skin leaving it soft and supple. It has so many beautiful properties and pairs nicely in our Summer Lilac Face Oil Concentrate and Citrus Balm.  SHOP NOW
