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.
Humectant
A moisture magnet. Pulls water from the air and deeper skin layers up to the surface to keep skin plump and hydrated.
Film Forming
Creates a physical seal on skin to lock moisture in and keep irritants out. The "slugging" ingredient — barrier protection.
Locks in moisture
Traditional Use
Avocado has been cultivated in Mesoamerica for thousands of years and traditionally used for skin nourishment. Hydrolyzed avocado protein is a modern extraction developed to concentrate amino acids and conditioning compounds from this traditional fruit.
