Ingredients & Notes · A — Z

What is inside. And why.

Every ingredient we put in. Every note we build with. And the things we deliberately leave out — explained, in plain words.

A

Allantoin

Soothing

INCI · Allantoin

CalmingSofteningRepair

A gentle skin-conditioning agent that calms irritation and helps skin shed dead cells, so the surface feels smoother and looks plumper. Quiet, reliable, kind to reactive skin.

Aloe Vera

Botanical

INCI · Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice

HydratingCoolingSoothing

A water-rich leaf gel packed with polysaccharides that cools, hydrates and settles stressed skin. The first thing skin reaches for after sun, heat or a long day.

Argan Oil

Oil

INCI · Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil

NourishingVitamin ENon-greasy

A lightweight Moroccan kernel oil rich in vitamin E and unsaturated fatty acids. Sinks in fast, softens without a film, and leaves skin supple rather than slick.

Vitamin C

Active

INCI · Ascorbic Acid & derivatives

BrighteningAntioxidantEven tone

A potent antioxidant that neutralises free radicals, fades dark spots and supports collagen for a brighter, more even tone. The morning vitamin that helps skin defend itself.

Azelaic Acid

Active

INCI · Azelaic Acid

ClearsCalms rednessEven tone

A grain-derived acid that clears congestion, calms redness and fades post-blemish marks at once. Gentle enough for sensitive, blemish-prone and uneven skin.

B

Bakuchiol

Active

INCI · Bakuchiol

FirmingSmoothingGentle

A plant-derived alternative to retinol that smooths fine lines and firms skin without the dryness or sun-sensitivity. The retinol result, with none of the drama.

Bisabolol

Soothing

INCI · Bisabolol

Anti-rednessCalmingFrom chamomile

The calming heart of chamomile, distilled. Reduces redness and helps other actives absorb, so a formula does more while feeling like less.

Betaine

Hydrator

INCI · Betaine

HumectantSmoothingFrom beets

A sugar-beet humectant that draws water into skin and protects cells from moisture stress. A soft, gentle hydrator that plays well with everything.

C

Caffeine

Active

INCI · Caffeine

De-puffingEnergisingAntioxidant

A vasoconstrictor and antioxidant that visibly de-puffs and tightens, especially around the eyes. The wake-up call your skin understands.

Centella Asiatica

Active

INCI · Centella Asiatica Extract · "Cica"

Barrier repairCalmingSoothing

Known as cica, this healing herb rebuilds a compromised barrier, calms inflammation and speeds recovery. The ingredient skin leans on when it has had enough.

Ceramides

Barrier

INCI · Ceramide NP, AP, EOP

BarrierMoisture-lockStrengthening

The lipids that make up your skin's own barrier mortar. Replacing them seals in moisture and shuts out irritation, so skin stops feeling tight and reactive.

Coconut Oil

Oil

INCI · Cocos Nucifera Oil · Kerala-sourced

NourishingSofteningRich

A deeply softening oil rich in lauric acid, drawn from Kerala groves. Wraps dry skin and hair in lasting comfort. We source it from places, not catalogues.

Cetearyl Alcohol

Emollient

INCI · Cetearyl Alcohol

SofteningStabilisingNot drying

A fatty alcohol — nothing like the drying kind. It thickens, softens and gives creams their cushioned glide. The unsung reason a lotion feels luxurious.

D

D-Panthenol

Pro-Vit B5

INCI · Panthenol

HydratingHealingSoothing

Pro-vitamin B5 that holds water in skin, calms redness and supports the barrier as it heals. A quiet multitasker that makes irritated skin feel cared for.

DEA / TEA / MEA

We leave this out

Ethanolamines

Cheap foam-boosters and pH-adjusters we choose not to use. We would rather formulate cleanly than chase a bigger lather. Not in our bottles.

E

Deep hydrationProtectiveAnti-stress

An extremolyte that shields skin cells from heat, pollution and water loss by surrounding them in a protective shell of hydration. Resilience, bottled.

Essential Oils

F

Ferulic Acid

Antioxidant

A plant antioxidant that fights free radicals and makes vitamins C and E work harder and last longer. The team player that lifts everyone around it.

Formaldehyde

We leave this out

& formaldehyde-releasing preservatives

Preservative

A preservative type we refuse on principle. There are gentler, modern ways to keep a formula safe — and those are the ones we use. Never in our bottles.

G

Glycerin

Hydrator

INCI · Glycerin

HumectantPlumpingUniversal

The most trusted humectant in skincare — it pulls water into the skin and keeps it there. Quietly does the heavy lifting in nearly every great moisturiser.

Glycolic Acid

AHA

INCI · Glycolic Acid

ResurfacingBrighteningSmoothing

The smallest alpha-hydroxy acid, so it works fast — dissolving dull, dead surface cells to reveal smoother, brighter skin. Glow with a little discipline.

Green Tea

Antioxidant

INCI · Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract

AntioxidantCalmingPolyphenols

Rich in polyphenols that defend skin from daily oxidative stress while calming redness. An everyday antioxidant with nothing to prove.

H

Hyaluronic Acid

A natural humectant that draws in moisture while soothing and softening. Comfort food for skin that feels tight and tired.

J

Jojoba Oil

Technically a wax, and the closest thing in nature to skin's own sebum — so it balances rather than clogs. Suits oily and dry skin alike.

K

Kojic Acid

Active

INCI · Kojic Acid

BrighteningEven toneFades spots

A fermentation-derived brightener that interrupts excess pigment to fade dark spots and even out tone. Gentle persistence over harsh bleaching.

Kokum Butter

Butter

INCI · Garcinia Indica Seed Butter

RichNon-greasyIndian-grown

A firm, fast-absorbing Indian butter that restores elasticity without heaviness. The lesser-known cousin of shea — lighter, and beautifully ours.

L

Lactic Acid

AHA

INCI · Lactic Acid

Gentle exfoliantHydratingSmoothing

The kindest alpha-hydroxy acid — it resurfaces dull skin while actually drawing in moisture. Exfoliation for people who thought acids weren't for them.

Licorice Root

Botanical

INCI · Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extract

BrighteningCalmingEven tone

A botanical that brightens dark spots and calms redness in the same breath. A gentle answer to uneven, sensitised skin.

M

Mandelic Acid

AHA

INCI · Mandelic Acid

GentleClarifyingEven tone

A large, slow-moving acid derived from almonds — so it clears and evens without overwhelming sensitive or deeper skin tones. Resurfacing with restraint.

Mineral Oil

We leave this out

Paraffinum Liquidum

OcclusivePetroleum-derived

A cheap petroleum-derived filler we skip in favour of plant butters and oils that actually feed the skin. We would rather nourish than coat.

Murumuru Butter

Butter

INCI · Astrocaryum Murumuru Seed Butter

ConditioningGlossyRich

N

Finely milled oats that form a soothing, protective film over irritated, itchy skin. The classic remedy for skin that needs to be left alone to heal.

Olive Oil

Oil

INCI · Olea Europaea Fruit Oil

NourishingAntioxidantRich

An ancient skin oil rich in squalene and polyphenols that deeply softens and protects. Time-tested comfort for very dry skin.

P

Peptides

Active

INCI · various signal & carrier peptides

FirmingSmoothingCollagen support

Short chains of amino acids that signal skin to make more collagen, firming and smoothing over time. Skincare that speaks the skin's own language.

Parabens

We leave this out

Methyl-, Propyl-, Butylparaben

Preservative

A preservative family we choose to formulate without. Our products stay safe with gentler, modern systems. Never in a TLC bottle.

Phthalates

We leave this out

Fragrance plasticisers

Fragrance fixative

Plasticisers sometimes hidden inside "fragrance." As a fragrance-led house, we build our scents without them — on purpose, and with pride.

R

Retinol

Active

INCI · Retinol · Vitamin A

RenewingFirmingRefining

The most studied anti-ageing active there is — it speeds cell turnover to smooth lines, refine texture and firm skin. Powerful, so introduce it slowly.

Rosehip Oil

Oil

INCI · Rosa Canina Fruit Oil

BrighteningRegeneratingVitamin A

A dry, fast-sinking oil rich in natural vitamin A and essential fatty acids that fades marks and revives dull skin. A glow you can feel as well as see.

Steam-distilled from Kannauj roses, this gentle floral water tones, hydrates and calms. The same rose that runs through our fragrances, here on the skin.

S

Salicylic Acid

BHA

INCI · Salicylic Acid

DecongestingOil-solubleClarifying

An oil-soluble acid that gets inside the pore to clear blockages, blackheads and bumps at the source. The active blemish-prone and body skin rely on.

A rich, vitamin-packed butter that wraps dry skin in lasting softness and rebuilds the barrier. The gold standard for true body nourishment.

Squalane

Active

INCI · Squalane · plant-derived

WeightlessBarrierSkin-identical

A weightless, plant-derived oil that mirrors a lipid skin already makes — so it softens and seals without a trace of grease. Comfort that disappears into skin.

Sulfates (SLS / SLES)

We leave this out

Sodium Lauryl / Laureth Sulfate

Harsh surfactantStrips skin

Aggressive foaming agents that strip skin and hair of their natural oils. We cleanse with gentler surfactants that respect the barrier. Not in our washes.

T

Tea Tree Oil

Botanical

INCI · Melaleuca Alternifolia Leaf Oil

ClarifyingPurifyingTargeted

A purifying essential oil that helps keep blemish-prone skin clear. Used at measured levels, it clarifies without stripping.

Vitamin E

Antioxidant

AntioxidantConditioningProtective

A skin-loving antioxidant that protects against environmental damage while keeping oils fresh and skin conditioned. Quietly present in almost everything good.

Triclosan

We leave this out

Antibacterial agent

Antibacterial

A controversial antibacterial we have no use for. Clean skin does not need harsh chemistry. Never in our formulas.

U

Urea

Active

INCI · Urea

HydratingSmoothingDual-action

A clever dual-action ingredient — hydrating at low levels, gently exfoliating at higher ones. The fix for rough, dry, bumpy body skin.

W

Witch Hazel

Botanical

INCI · Hamamelis Virginiana Water

ToningRefreshingMattifying

A botanical astringent that tones and refreshes oilier skin. We use the gentle, alcohol-free form so it comforts rather than tightens.

X

Xanthan Gum

Texture
