Fruit Enzymes, Plant Extracts and Oils
Our plant extracts and oils are nutrient-dense powerhouses that naturally deliver antioxidants, essential fatty acids, and vitamins to your skin. They penetrate deeply to lock in moisture, soothe inflammation, and fight free radical damage, promoting a radiant, healthy complexion without relying heavily on synthetic chemicals.
The plants extract and oils in our Radiance Enzyme Cleanser (Maple sap Extract, Myrtle Leaf Oil and Orange Oil) are rich in naturally occurring polyphenols, used to promote a firmer, plumper, and more radiant complexion.
Maple sap extract provides deep hydration, gentle exfoliation, and potent anti-aging effects for the skin. Rich in minerals, antioxidants, and naturally occurring alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), it helps protect against environmental stressors, plumps the complexion, and soothes irritation without causing sensitivity.
Deep Hydration: Maple sap molecules are smaller than water molecules, allowing them to deeply penetrate the skin barrier. Its natural sugars act as humectants to retain moisture and prevent evaporation. They are rich in natural humectants that draw moisture into the skin. This keeps the skin barrier plump and prevents transepidermal water loss effectively combating dryness and flakiness.
Gentle Exfoliation: Sugar maple naturally contains malic and other alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs). These gently slough away dead skin cells to reveal a brighter complexion while boosting cellular renewal.
Anti-Aging and Elasticity: Research indicates that maple inhibits the activity of elastase—the enzyme responsible for breaking down elastin in the skin. By protecting elastin and collagen, it helps maintain skin firmness, warding off sagging and wrinkles.
Powerful Antioxidant Protection: Packed with compounds like gallotannins, the extract neutralises free radicals caused by UV exposure and environmental stressors. This helps prevent cellular damage and brightens the skin.
Soothes Inflammation: Contains anti-inflammatory properties that help calm irritated, sensitive, or acne-prone skin. It reduces redness and supports natural skin healing.
Reduces Dark Spots: Some compounds found in maple sap have been shown to interfere with melanin production, assisting in the fading of age spots and hyperpigmentation.
