Functions
Fragrance
Added for scent. Can be natural or synthetic. Common irritant and allergen — one of the top reasons people react to products.

A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Soothing
Calms redness, irritation, and inflammation. Your skin's chill pill — great for sensitive, reactive, or post-procedure skin.
Tonic
Antioxidant
Protects skin from free radical damage caused by UV, pollution, and stress
Anti-Inflammatory
Tightens and tones skin
Traditional Use
Mandarin orange peel has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for digestive health and to invigorate qi. The peel was traditionally valued in Asian skincare for its uplifting aroma and mild skin-brightening properties.
