1. Water (Aqua): The base of every moisturizer. Purified to remove bacteria, it allows the active ingredients to absorb evenly and gives the formula its lightweight, spreadable consistency without leaving a greasy film.
2. Mangifera Indica (Mango) Seed Butter: Cold-pressed from the seed of the mango fruit. Denser than shea but absorbs faster, mango seed butter is rich in oleic and stearic fatty acids that reinforce the skin barrier and lock in moisture without clogging pores. It is why this moisturizer feels substantial without feeling heavy.
3. Moringa Oleifera Seed Oil: Pressed from the seeds of the moringa tree, sometimes called the miracle tree for the density of nutrients in a single seed. High in behenic acid, which gives it an unusually long shelf life without synthetic stabilizers, and oleic acid, which allows it to penetrate deeply into the skin rather than sitting on the surface. It conditions without residue.
4. Laminaria Algae (Seaweed) Extract: Harvested from cold-water seaweed and rich in iodine, vitamins, and amino acids. Algae extract pulls moisture from the environment and binds it to the skin, working as a natural humectant. It also contains antioxidants that help neutralize daily environmental damage before it accumulates.
5. 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C): The stable form of vitamin C. Standard ascorbic acid oxidizes quickly and loses potency before it reaches the skin. This derivative stays active, penetrates deeper, and converts to pure vitamin C once absorbed. It brightens uneven tone, supports collagen production, and works as an antioxidant against UV-related damage. One ingredient doing three jobs.
