GREEN TEA CLEANSER

Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Water - An aqueous solution produced from the steam distillation of the Cucumber fruit. This hydrosol contributes skin conditioning, and skin soothing properties to the product. This hydrosol adds a bright, crisp, fresh scent of Cucumber and is great for refreshing, soothing, and cooling the skin.

Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil - A skin softening emollient that is rich in Vitamin A, B, C and the predominate fatty acid, linoleic acid. Linoleic acid works to soothe & calm irritated skin and help it to synthesize lipids like ceramides, allowing the skin to repair its barrier. A healthy skin barrier prevents water loss and the permeation of foreign substances.

Glycerin - A versatile humectant produced from plant oils that attracts and holds moisture onto the skin, reducing water loss and improving the skin barrier. Glycerin increases the solubility of active ingredients, allowing the skin to more readily absorb them. This humectant has a low molecular weight and is able to penetrate deeper into the dermis, producing supple, plump, hydrated skin.

Coco Glucoside - A gentle non-ionic surfactant with cleansing and conditioning properties, derived from coconut oil and glucose (sugar). Coco Glucoside breaks up and lifts oils and dirt from the skin. It shares the qualities of coconut oil, as such it does not strip and dry out the skin.

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride - A skin softening emollient, texture enhancer, penetration enhancer, dispersing agent. Produced from coconut oil, this light weight oil contains fatty acids that help the skin to resist moisture loss.

Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Leaf Extract - An antioxidant rich active botanical extracted from the leaves of the Camellia Sinensis plant. Because of its high polyphenol content, Green Tea contributes many benefits to the skin, such as:
• Tones the epidermis and improves elasticity.
• Inhibits the enzyme (collagenase) that causes the degredation of collagen; improving collagen retention. Collagen is the tough fiber located in the dermis and gives our skin its strength, structure, firmness, and bounce.
• Protects the skin from environmental free radical damage and UV radiation.
• Minimizes the appearance of skin damage, fine lines, sagging and cellulite.
• Hydrates and soothes inflamed, irritated skin.
• Provides a photo-protective effect, great when combines with sunscreen.

Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Extract - A skin soothing botanical extract with antioxidant properties. Cucumber extract works to reduce irritation and improve complexion. Cucumber is excellent for sunburn, dermatitis, blemishes, and is skin hydrating.

Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract - An anti-aging, antioxidant rich botanical extract that has a toning & binding effect on the skin making it great for mature skin. Rosemary extract increases blood flow, promoting proper skin function - relieving skin congestion, swelling, and puffiness. Produces a clearer complexion and firmer skin.

Spinacia Oleracea (Spinach) Leaf Powder - Spinach Extract is a powerful antioxidant rich superfood that is used in skincare to promote skin regeneration & contribute anti-aging benefits. Vitamins A and C are present in this superfood, making it beneficial for brightening a dull or uneven skin tone and aiding in the reduction of visible signs of aging.

Cocamidopropyl Betaine - An amphoteric surfactant with cleansing and conditioning properties. This is a gentle, mild, co-surfactant that increases the lather of the product. Our Cocamidopropyl Betaine is derived from coconut oil and rinses without a residue or tightness. (This is not the same as Coco Betaine.)

Xanthan Gum - A natural gum produced from sugar fermentation that works as a thickening/stabilizing agent in the product and helps to emulsify (bind) the oil and water. Xanthan gum produces a gel like slip and feel that is pleasant on the skin.

Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment Filtrate - A plant derived preservative that has moisturizing and conditioning properties.

Propylene Glycol - A light weight plant derived humectant that provides hydration to the skin and enhances skin feel & texture.

Diazolidinyl Urea, Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate - A reliable, highly effective broad spectrum preservative system. Provides antimicrobial power to the product. (Both ingredients used at less that %0.3)

Citric Acid - Citric Acid is used to adjust the pH of the product, keeping it from becoming too alkaline. Our Citric Acid is derived from corn.
