Below, you can see how groups of herbs and other ingredients work together to combat each problem associated with irritation.
Relief for Irritation
Ginger root extract, bisabolol, cordyceps sinesis extract and trametes versicolor extract all work together as a powerful anti-inflammatory which reduces redness and irritation. Alone each of these ingredients fight irritation as powerful anti-inflammatory agents but together they potentiate one another to soothe the most powerful of irritations.
Stops Itching
Portulace oreacea extract soothes burns, insect bites, skin sores, abscesses, inflammation, itching and eczema. Colloidal oatmeal relieves dryness, itching, acne, eczema, rosacea, sunburn, dermatitis, irritation while oat kernel extract is used to treat itching dermatitis, cold sores, shingles, acne and eczema. Calmomilla recutia flower extract is commonly used to stop itching caused by insects, poison ivy, and rash. Together these anti itching agents work to stop itching no matter what the cause.
Nourishing Properties
Algae extract is edible, nourishing and packed with vitamins for the skin. Hydrolyzed algin (from brown seaweed) also offers nourishing vitamins to the skin. Skin nourishment works to give skin cells the nutrition they need to recover more quickly.
Anti Aging
Oat kernel extract has anti aging and anti-oxidant properties. It also moisturizes, heals and soothes. Radish root ferment filtrate prevents skin from flaking. This keeps skin looking smooth and young, even when it is recovering from severe dryness. Cetyl ethylhexanote also stops flaking and dry patches which can make skin look much older than it actually is.
Healing
Portulace oreracea extract enhances wound healing and has profound healing properties which work to reduce scratches, raw patches, sores, and other breaks in skin integrity. Colloidal oatmeal promotes healing and restores luminosity. Aloe leave juice is known to promote the healing of burns, skin irritations, abrasions and acne. Hydroxyphenyl propamidobenzoic acid is used to treat rosacea, eczema and damaged skin.
Decreases Skin Sensitivity
Boerhavia Deffusa root extract reduces inflammation, and acts to make skin less sensitive
Antimicrobial Agents
Boerhavia diffusa is also a powerful broad spectrum antiviral, while Behenyl alcohol combats the specific virus which causes cold sores and other lipid coated viruses. Leuconostoc/radish root ferment filtrate kills virus and bacteria very effectively as well. Chamomilla recutia (Matricaria) flower also works as an antimicrobial agent.
Antifungal
Bisabolol is a powerful antifungal botanical ingredient, which is potentiated by ginger root extract. Together these two ingredients prevent raw and injured skin from becoming a host to fungus.
