- Fruit acids and their moisturizing and exfoliating properties contribute to skin cell renewal. They stimulate the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans, the large molecules forming the skin's supporting matrix, including collagen. In addition, fruit acids promote the elimination of excess sebum and dead cells, reduce wrinkles and hyperpigmentation, and restores the radiance in the complexion;
- Larch bark extract contains antioxidant and brightening properties. Studies show that it promotes collagen synthesis. It reduces hyperpigmentation and restores radiance to the complexion;
- Hyaluronic acids of different molecular weights are one of the most effective moisturizing agents. They participate in the hydration and cohesion of tissues by filling the intercellular spaces. Because they are easily absorbed by the skin, smaller molecules have greater penetrating power. Hyaluronic acids can then fill in wrinkles which makes the skin soft and supple;

They promote tissue hydration, soothe inflammation and allow a superior absorsion of nutrients. Their great amount of mucilage make marshmallow the plant-based version of hyaluronic acid.

The regenerative ingredients of comfrey such as allantoin, tannins and rosmarinic acid all contribute in accelerating the natural renewal of cells and stimulating the growth of new tissues.
Allantoin is a very popular substance in the cosmetic and medical area. It is used in many creams to help treat a variety of skin disorders as well as cuts and burns.
Allantoin also has a keratinolytic action : it softens the keratin, a tough and inflexible protein of the outer layer of the skin. Allantoin therefore helps the skin’s water retention. The skin becomes softer and better hydrated. By stimulating the exfoliation of the superficial cell layer, keratinolytics also helps in smoothening the skin.
The comfrey extracts we use come from the roots we harvest in our organic gardens located in Gaspésie following a biodynamic inspiration.
