This intensely moisturizing natural oil helps minimize dry, flaky skin and soothes skin to reduce signs of redness or inflammation.
COLLAGEN
The naturally occurring protein component, Collagen accounts for about 30% of protein in the body. As we age we lose the natural collagen in our skin — about 1.5% each year after the age of 25, and it can be more if exposed to damaging elements like excessive sunlight and pollutants.

This ingredient has a tightening & firming effect on skin to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while encouraging visible firmness. It also provides great hydration to the skin and improves skin tone.
GOLD
Cleopatra was said to have slept in a gold mask to preserve her beauty. Chinese empresses were also drawn to the metal and included it in their beauty routines. That’s because gold is thought to enhance the skin’s luminance and luster, for a radiantly youthful glow. Colloidal gold, which is a suspension of gold nano-particles in a liquid formula, is commonly used in skin care formulation. This provides the surface of the skin with an even layer of gold particles that help balance skin tone appearance and ultimately illuminate any complexion. Though the benefits of gold are still being studied by scientists, we know one thing for sure – gold is the ultimate in skin care indulgence.
HYALURONIC ACID
Hyaluronic Acid and is key in keeping skin moist and aiding in the production of collagen. When the skin loses this, due to natural aging, it begins to lose its firmness and begins to droop and sag.
