Blue Haven Bakuchiol Regenerative Balm 54g

All skin types, but especially beneficial if you're seeking an intensely nourishing and emollient face balm for dry skin or facial protection from the elements. It also provides excellent skin barrier protection.

♦ Arctic Cloudberry Oil: This rare Nordic berry boasts an incredibly high amount of vitamins, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids, including ellagic acid which is a powerful polyphenol that helps to prevent loss of elasticity and reduce inflammation. A well-balanced profile of Omega 3, 6 and 9 essential fatty acids provids skin with excellent moisturizing abilities and skin barrier protection.

♦ Lupine Seed Extract: A high performance ingredient that serves as a multi-benefit firming active by stimulating synthesis of a high-quality collagen in the skin. It has remarkable anti-inflammatory properties, helps to restore the elastic properties of the skin and specifically targets skin area that have become saggy and lost its tone and lustre.

♦ Bakuchiol: Sustainably sourced from the 100% natural plant-derived retinol alternative, the Ayurvedic Babchi plant. Bakuchiol presents striking resemblances with the performance of retinoids, thereby helping to reduce lines and wrinkles, smooth out uneven skin tone and firm the skin without any of the side effects and skin irritations associated with traditional retinol or retinoid products.

♦ Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate: A very stable, oil-soluble Vitamin C ester which has anti-oxidant activity, inhibiting lipid peroxidation. Topical use can mitigate the damaging effects of UV exposure. Studies have shown it to stimulate collagen production as well as clarifying and brightening the skin by inhibiting melanogenesis (the production of pigment) thereby promoting a more even skin tone. Unlike ascorbic acid, it will not exfoliate or irritate skin.

♦ CoQ10: Also known as ubiquinone or coenzyme Q10, a powerful antioxidant that is essential for keeping our skin healthy. It helps to neutralize and protect your skin from free radicals and oxidative stress from the elements like the sun, pollution and outdoor elements. CoQ10 is particularly effective for revitalizing the complexion while helping to fade dark spots and hyperpigmentation.

Warm a rice grain to pea sized amount of balm between the fingertips and gently apply onto cleansed face, neck and décolletage using an upwards motion. Apply morning and evening, or as needed. Very concentrated, a little goes a long way. We advise using sunscreen if using this product during the day.
