INGREDIENTS
CALENDULA
Calendula (C. officinalis Linn.) is a perennial plant rich in flavonoids that provide anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, and anti-fungal properties. This medicinal herb increases blood flow to the skin, supplying oxygen and nutrients to reduce skin irritation and optimize tissue regeneration while minimizing poor outcomes such as infection and scaring.
Conditions that benefit from Calendula include:
burns
cuts
dermatitis
dry skin
eczema
psoriasis
rashes
stings
wound healing
TALLOW
Tallow is a whole-food skincare product. It is made from fatty cuts from regeneratively raised cows, that is rendered to produce a highly-stable fat that is rich with bioavailable vitamins, minerals, and nutrients including vitamins A, D, K, E, B12, selenium, choline, and omega 3. Tallow resembles our natural skin’s sebum, making it suitable for all skin types without causing irritation or acne.
The composition of tallow consists mainly of fatty acids: oleic, palmitic, and stearic acids. Similar to the fatty acid composition of our skin.
Oleic acid is an omega-9 fatty acid which is easily absorbable and deeply penetrates the skin. Oleic acid modulates inflammation, is a powerful antioxidant, helps to regulate the moisture barrier of the skin, the lipid barrier, and balances the natural oil production of the skin. This contributes to tallow’s powerful ability to hydrate and protect the skin from environmental damage, and prevent breakouts, without clogging pores.
Stearic acid is a building block that supports the structure of the skin.
Palmitic acid pairs with stearic acid to create an occlusive barrier that helps protect the skin from infection and damage from toxins, while trapping moisture in the skin.
Vitamin A, or retinoids, are necessary for healthy skin and even skin tone. Retinoids promote cell turnover, collagen production, and angiogenisis (the formation of new blood vessels) therefore increasing oxygen and nutrient delivery to the skin, which results in improved skin elasticity, reduction in sagging, fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, skin aging, and sun damage. Retinoids also help protect the skin from cell damage from environmental factors such as pollution and UV radiation. This vitamin is used to treat acne in adolescents and adults, and psoriasis.
Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant used commonly in dermatology to protect the skin from environmental damage, supports collagen production in skin, and has anti-tumorigenic and photoprotective properties.
Vitamin B12 is an essential nutrient for collagen production, healthy cell growth, and regeneration, which can reduce the appearance of wrinkles and other signs of aging.
Selenium plays an essential role in dermatology, as it is necessary for antioxidant production and reduction of inflammation in the skin. It is used to alleviate psoriasis, seborrehic dermatitis, dandruff, and hyperkeratosis.
