Sodium Hyaluronate
Occurs naturally in the dermis layer. Its water absorbing abilities help the epidermis achieve much needed suppleness and moisture. Known for its water binding ability, this acid holds water tightly, and when applied to the skin, forms a film similar to the way it holds water in the intercellular matrix of the dermal connective tissue. It’s also a useful carrier for other active ingredients as well as extracts.

Has many beneficial properties including being anti-inflammatory, soothing, decongesting, antiseptic, and toning. It is considered anti- itching and antibacterial with an ability to neutralize skin irritations.

Zinc Oxide (6.0%)
It blocks both UVA and UVB rays and provides the broadest spectrum protection of any single sunscreen ingredient. Ingredient also recognized as a treatment for calming the skin.
Green Tea (Camellia Sinensis)
For centuries green tea has been known for its anti-aging effects, excellent antioxidant capacity, and its overall health benefits. Antioxidants help in alleviating dry or oily skin by bringing the skin’s natural moisture content back into balance. Green tea, using its antioxidant properties, helps to protect the skin from free radical damage and aid in the healing of previously damaged skin.
