The oil contains provitamin A (mostly beta-Carotene). It has been wrongly said to contain retinol (vitamin A) which is a vitamin solely made by animals from provitamin A. It does however contain levels (up to .357 ml/L) of tretinoin or all-trans retinoic acid, a vitamin A acid that retinol converts to. |
| Sesame Seed Oil |
The health benefits of sesame oil include its ability to improve hair and skin health |
| Olive Oil |
Olive oil is touted for a number of beauty benefits,5 including the following:Moisturizing skin,Improving skin elasticity and its regenerative properties.Providing antioxidants and good fats to fight free radicals and facilitate skin healing.Reducing under-eye wrinkles.Massaging dry, flaky scalp or dandruff.Massaging frizzy hair or split ends (lightly warmed olive oil) |
| Extracts of White Willow |
The salicylic acid in white willow bark lowers the body’s levels of prostaglandins, hormonelike compounds that can cause aches, pain, and inflammation. While white willow bark takes longer to begin acting than aspirin, its effect may last longer. And, unlike aspirin, it doesn’t cause stomach bleeding or other known adverse effects. |
| Burdock |
Naturally occurring fatty acid that helps absorption. |
| Milk Thistle |
Contains numerous anti-aging properties |
| Hops |
Hops are a valuable ingredient for natural skin care for treating dry or stressed skin. |
| Sophora Root Extract |
Its decoction can induce diuresis, reduce inflammation, prevent allergies |
| Squalene |
Natural antioxidant and absorbing agent |
| Isooctyl Palmitate |
Ethylhexyl palmitate is used in cosmetic formulations as a solvent, carrying agent, pigment wetting agent, fragrance fixative and emollient. Its dry-slip skinfeel is similar to some silicone derivatives. |
| Isopropyl Myristate |
Isopropyl myristate is used in cosmetic and topical medicinal preparations where good absorption through the skin is desired. |
| Polydimethylsiloxane |
Activated dimethicone, a mixture of polydimethylsiloxanes and silicon dioxide (sometimes called simethicone), is often used in over-the-counter drugs as an antifoaming agent and carminative |
| Salicylic Acid |

| Phenoxyethanol |
Phenoxyethanol is a preservative used in cosmetics and personal care products. |
| DL-Menthol |
The distinct effects of optically active menthols on lipid bilayers were clarified: l-menthol acts on orthorhombic hydrocarbon chain packing with high selectivity, whereas d-menthol has no such specific effect. These findings extend our understanding of the mechanisms by which menthols affect the intercellular lipids in the stratum corneum. Menthol's ability to chemically trigger the cold-sensitive TRPM8 receptors in the skin is responsible for the well-known cooling sensation it provokes when inhaled, eaten, or applied to the skin. Menthol's analgesic properties are mediated through a selective activation of ?-opioid receptors. Menthol also blocks voltage-sensitive sodium channels, reducing neural activity that may stimulate muscles. Menthol also enhances the efficacy of ibuprofen in topical applications via vasodilation, which reduces skin barrier function. |
| Hyaluronic Acid |
naturally found in the human body and is a powerful moisture-binding ingredient that keeps skin plump, hydrated and, young-looking |
| Grape Seed Extract |
Grape seed extract contains antioxidants, which help prevent cell damage caused by free radicals (highly reactive molecules that can damage cell function) |
