Functions

Skin Protecting
Helps rebuild and strengthen your skin barrier — the invisible shield that keeps moisture in and irritants out. Essential after over-exfoliating or harsh weather.
Nourishes & Protects
Traditional Use
A modern extraction of ginger leaf developed for contemporary skincare formulations. While ginger leaves have been used in traditional Asian herbal medicine, the cellular extraction technology is a 20th-century innovation designed to concentrate active compounds.
