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.
Soothing
Calms redness, irritation, and inflammation. Your skin's chill pill — great for sensitive, reactive, or post-procedure skin.
Soothes Skin
Traditional Use
Synthesized by combining stearyl alcohol with glycyrrhizin (licorice extract) in modern skincare chemistry. Created to provide anti-inflammatory and conditioning benefits while improving stability of licorice derivatives.
