Frankincense: Known as ‘The Resin of Kings’, Frankincense helps to boost skin cell renewal and deliver naturally youthful radiance, boosting microcirculation and decreasing red and dark circle pigmentation. A naturally potent remedy for scarring and inflammation, Frankincense is known for its ability to improve scars and stretch marks by encouraging moisture retention in the skin.
Niacinamide: Also known as Vitamin B3, Niacinamide works by enhancing the function of the skin lipid barrier, helping to lock in moisture and keep pollutants and other potential irritants out. A multifaceted active, Niacinamide helps to keep skin firm, healthy, and hydrated, reducing the appearance of texture and wrinkles.

Kakadu Plum: Kakadu Plum is well-known for its abundance of vitamin C, which brightens the skin and promotes collagen synthesis. The plum's antioxidants protect against free radical damage, helping to slow the aging process. Its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties contribute to clearer and calmer skin.
Licorice Root: The glycyrrhizin in liquorice root contains anti-inflammatory properties, which work to reduce redness and inflammation, whilst antioxidative activity helps to protect the skin from environmental stress.
Desert Lime: Well-adapted to the dry desert conditions of the outback, The antioxidants in Desert Lime protect against free radicals, and premature ageing whilst its natural astringent properties help tighten pores and balance oil production. Additionally, Desert Lime contributes to skin hydration, supporting overall skin health and radiance.
Quandong: Also known as Desert Peach, Quandong is clinically proven to significantly increase skin hydration by reducing trans-epidermal water loss and increasing barrier function. Naturally astringent, moisturising and rich in antioxidants including Vitamin C, Quandong helps to promote collagen synthesis and skin elasticity, brightening, tightening and hydrating the skin.

INDIAN SANDALWOOD BENEFITS
1. CALMS INFLAMMATION + REDNESS
When tested on skin cells in a 2021 study, Indian sandalwood oil was found to inhibit the movement of a protein complex known as NF-κB, which is involved in triggering the body's inflammatory response.
2. BREAKS DOWN HYPERPIGMENTATION
The sesquiterpene α-santalol, a key component of sandalwood oil, is an effective natural inhibitor of the enzyme tyrosinase, which plays a central role in the production of melanin, the group of molecules responsible for pigmentation of skin.
3. PRESERVES SKIN ELASTICITY
Indian sandalwood oil is proven through in vitro testing to preserve skin elasticity by inhibiting the activity of collagen-degrading enzymes.
4. PREVENTS PREMATURE AGING
When tested on human skin cells and tissues exposed to blue light and cigarette smoke, sandalwood oil outperformed even vitamin E (alpha tocopherol) in its ability to protect and rejuvenate the skin via its antioxidant potency.
5. IMPROVES HEALTHY SKIN CELL TURNOVER
When tested on human skin at low concentrations, Indian sandalwood oil has been proven to help eliminate damaged skin cells, allowing for the regeneration of new, healthy skin cells, resulting in younger and brighter looking skin.
6. SHRINKS PORES + FINE LINES
The bioactive compounds in sandalwood oil help to improve overall skin texture, contributing to the appearance of smaller pores and reduced fine lines.
7. TREATS + PREVENTS BREAKOUTS
Due to its abundance of alpha santalol compounds, Indian sandalwood oil has been proven to be a safe antiseptic agent, making it an ideal treatment for acne, enlarged pores, congestion, and break-out prone skin.
