Functions
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Emollient
Fills in the tiny cracks between skin cells to make everything feel smooth and soft. The "silky finish" ingredient.
Locks In Moisture
Traditional Use
Historically used by indigenous peoples in Australia for cosmetic and medicinal purposes; the wax from this tree has been incorporated into modern skincare for its emollient and protective properties.
