Functions
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
Chilean strawberries have been cultivated since the 18th century, though traditional topical use of the seed oil is a modern development. Indigenous Mapuche peoples traditionally consumed the fruit for nutrition rather than cosmetic application.
