It helps supply oxygen to the skin cells, increasing the strength and synthesis of skin tissue and induces improved blood flow to the skin through capillary dilation.

ROSEHIP OIL
Studies on photo-ageing and scar repair show Rosehip derivatives can reduce fine wrinkles caused by UV damage, and reduce hyperpigmentation of scars. This is due to the high content of Trans-retinoic Acid, or Tretinoin, a form of Vitamin A. Rosehip oil also contains high levels of Vitamin C and Beta-carotene (the precursor to Vitamin A), both of which are antioxidants.

VITAMIN C
Vitamin C is a water-soluble, highly effective antioxidant that even in small amounts can protect from damage the body’s indispensable molecules, such as DNA, RNA, proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates.

VITAMIN E
Vitamin E is an important antioxidant that neutralises free radicals in the body, and is essential for normal cell reproduction.

White Willow extract is a natural source of Salicylic Acid, and due to the high Tannin content is an astringent. It has keratolytic (exfoliating), anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, anti-itching and analgesic properties. The Gallotannins, also found in green tea, are proven to reduce reddening.
