Transcendent Herbs and Botanicals
Unveiling the Powerhouse Trio

At the heart of Essentialist lies a time-honored trio of adaptogenic herbs and botanicals that empower stressed skin to bounce back and provide the reparative nourishment and enduring support it craves. 

Astragalus Root Extract: A Symphony of Healing and Firmness

Astragalus is a highly respected herb in traditional medicine that possesses remarkable properties to rejuvenate, nurture, and balance the skin. It’s enriched with natural amino acids and Astragaloside IV, this vital component is known to slow collagen breakdown by boosting the suppression of transforming growth factor-β/Smad signaling and restraining matrix metalloproteinase-1, a protective shield created against the signs of aging. The result is a firmer and more refined texture. 

Burdock Root Extract: Strengthening the Skin's Resilience

Burdock root, a silent force against oxidative stress, strengthens and supports the skin's resistance. Bursting with antioxidant reserves, it acts as a shield, protecting your skin from the damaging effects of environmental aggressors. Burdock root becomes a trusted ally in the battle against manifestations of age, as it helps maintain a timeless complexion and encourages your skin's inner radiance to shine outward. 

Marshmallow Root: Embracing Beauty with Nurturing Elegance

Marshmallow root excels as a potent anti-inflammatory skin-conditioning master, encouraging flexibility and strength. Rich in polysaccharides that counter the negative impact of enzymes that degrade hyaluronic acid, marshmallow root ensures your skin retains significant moisture levels. Beyond its redness-calming properties, this botanical ally excels at enhancing your skin's natural resilience.

Fortified Visible Age Prevention

As experts in skin health, we recognize the importance of fortifying and revitalizing overtaxed skin effectively. To achieve this, we incorporate potent plant-based antioxidants and naturally occurring molecules backed by science. These precise compounds penetrate the skin, combat free radicals, and correct misprogrammed skin cells, ultimately resulting in visible skin revitalization.

Resveratrol: The Longevity Molecule

Emerging as a reprogramming genius, resveratrol is celebrated as the "longevity molecule," excelling in countering environmental damage and delaying collagen breakdown. Finding perfect synergy with vitamin E, this dynamic alliance offers stability to cell membranes, effectively halting lipid peroxidation and boosting your skin's defense for enduring radiance that ensures graceful aging.

Vitamin C: Illuminating Radiance and Collagen Boost

Sodium ascorbyl phosphate is a form of brightening vitamin C; it actively rehabilitates skin tone, promotes collagen production, and restores elasticity. The outcome is a fortified and radiant luster, free from signs of dullness.

Methyl Sulfonyl Methane: The Beauty Mineral

Methyl sulfonyl methane (MSM), known as the "beauty mineral," excels in graceful aging by acting as a penetration enhancer, helping nutrients flow into the skin, stimulating collagen production, and fortifying skin integrity - a key asset in combating visible aging signs.

Ubiquinone: Skin-Identical Support

Ubiquinone provides support identical to the skin, combats the effects of aging, and promotes optimal skin health. Its superior cushioning effect ensures that your skin feels nurtured and rejuvenated.

Amplified Hydration

As a delicate ecosystem, your skin yearns for perfect hydration and moisture balance. Going beyond isolated oils for moisturization, our approach to hydration is multifaceted; it must restore, protect, replenish, and solidify homeostasis to prevent the re-emergence of dryness. This guarantees your skin gets everything it needs for immersive, natural hydration, ensuring moisture stays where needed most. 

The Dynamic Duo: Panthenol and Hyaluronic Acid

Anchored by the dynamic pairing of panthenol and hyaluronic acid, this hydrating masterpiece forms a potent defense against dehydration as they work seamlessly to ensure water retention within your skin cells. Panthenol, celebrated for its skin-conditioning abilities, synergizes with hyaluronic acid to deliver the deep hydration your skin requires while safeguarding it for a supple and plump complexion. 

Did you know humectants play a crucial role in both hydration and strengthening your skin's acid mantle?

Aloe: Rich Healing Elixir

This exquisite skin elixir, aloe, enriched with polysaccharides, brings botanical grace to the formula. Its soothing properties, coupled with collagen stimulation, enhance your skin's overall health.

Vegetable Glycerin: Natural Humectant Magic

This powerful plant-based humectant quickly restores your skin's natural moisture levels. It keeps your skin hydrated, protects it from dehydration, and deters dryness from reoccurring. 

Vitamin E: Age-Defying Antioxidant

As we age and face environmental exposure, this bioidentical antioxidant humectant becomes a reliable ally in combating dryness and visible aging. Its inclusion in the formula adds a touch of age-defying magic, leaving your skin with a lasting, timeless glow.

Revitalizing Omega-Rich Phyto-Ceramides

To effectively address the needs of dry, sensitized skin and a compromised mantle, we’ve harnessed the gentle power of plant-based fatty oils to create a specialized phyto-ceramide complex. This complex enhances moisture retention and improves barrier function. 

Essential fatty acids and omegas-3, -6, -7, and -9 nurture the skin, bolster its resistance, and expedite skin recovery while diminishing superficial lines and flaking. 

The synergy between vital lipids and precise botanicals plays a pivotal role in restoring skin integrity, and to preserve elasticity, we need to fortify the skin with essential fatty acids that the body cannot produce. This sustained nourishment alleviates dryness and reduces the signs of damage associated with chronic dehydration and low moisture levels.

Sea Buckthorn Fruit Oil: It enhances skin metabolism, refines fine lines, stimulates cell regeneration, and guards against UV damage. Packed with essential fatty acids and sterols, sea buckthorn boosts the skin’s ability to seal in moisture while managing inflammation.

Borage seed Oil: One of nature's most abundant forms of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) that can restore the intracellular moisture barrier.

Evening Primrose: Rich in linoleic acid necessary for the skin to make ceramides. 

Linseed Seed Oil: Omega-3 fatty acids help to improve barrier function and rejuvenate dry, rough skin, discouraging flaking. 

Macadamia Oil: Helps neutralize environmental damage and delays premature aging. Rich in phytosterols and palmitoleic acid, which is depleted with skin aging.

Enriched with beneficial linoleic acid, these botanical oils are sealed in by jojoba oil's wax esters and cocoa seed butter for long-lasting skin health that radiates across all seasons.

A Prime Canvas for Sustained Nourishment

Essentialist is more than just a moisture cream; it's an elegant transitional formula that not only restores skin radiance, but serves as an adaptive makeup primer to enhance your beauty regimen. Its silky melt-in texture provides lasting priming capabilities throughout the day; you won’t even notice its presence. 

Guidance: Simply blend a dollop into your foundation to create a custom beauty balm, or use a fingertip amount over foundation at the high points. Upon application, you'll notice dullness diminish and an immediate soft, radiant under glow.

A Symphony of Botanical Elegance

Like the daily balance we seek daily, Essentialist achieves the perfect equilibrium by blending ancient traditions with cutting-edge science, allowing nature's most vibrant botanicals to merge with your skin seamlessly.

Because skin requires vigorous support around the clock, you can apply the Essentialist moisturizer anytime—day or night, thus safeguarding against future damage and preserving its present vitality, resulting in a natural radiance that mirrors visible skin health.
