Botanical: Nature’s Science in Skincare

 What does “Botanical” mean?
“Botanical” refers to ingredients derived from plants - including herbs, flowers, roots, seeds, and essential oils - used for their beneficial properties. The use of botanicals in skincare has deep roots in traditional herbal medicine and is now backed by modern scientific research.

 Did you know?

• Many plant extracts are rich in antioxidants, which help protect skin from environmental stressors like pollution and UV damage. 1
• Studies show that botanicals like green tea, chamomile, and rosehip oil contain natural compounds that soothe sensitive skin and support the skin barrier. 2
• Botanical oils, such as jojoba, argan, and rosehip, have been shown to have anti-inflammatory, moisturizing, and even wound-healing effects. 3 

Ancient wisdom, modern science:
The use of botanicals dates back thousands of years. Ancient civilizations - from Egypt to China - used plant extracts for cleansing, healing, and beauty rituals. Today, scientists are rediscovering these time-tested ingredients and validating their effectiveness through clinical studies.
