Hydration complex (NMF): a synergistic blend of humectants which mimic the properties of the skin's own natural moisturising factor (NMF) which is responsible for keeping the skin hydrated and healthy

Vitamin B5 (panthenol): has been shown to assist epidermal barrier function by reducing water loss and increasing hydration, keeping the skin soft and pliable. It also offers a protective and anti-inflammatory effect

Cucumber extract: a skin conditioning ingredient which is naturally hydrating, owing to its high water content, cucumber extract also refreshes and soothes the skin

Water soluble shea butter: provides the emollient, moisturising & protective properties of shea butter, without the richness / heaviness or greasiness of the standard form

Formulated without added fragrance (some natural scent may be noticeable from the cucumber extract) or essential oils & alcohol. Suitable for all skin types, especially those with dehydrated skin. 

pH: 5-5.5

Shake before use. After cleansing, dispense 4-6 drops of essence into the palm of your hand (don't waste this goodness on a cotton pad!) and apply to skin. If you're feeling extra, apply a second layer! Follow immediately with serum / moisturiser. Can be used morning & night, and under the eye area. Complete your daytime routine with a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect your skin.

Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. For external use only. Keep out of the reach of children. Patch test first. As with all products, discontinue use if irritation occurs.
