Thoughtfully crafted, our Goddess Facial Serum is a potent blend of certified organic borage oil, rosehip seed oil, sea buckthorn oil, jojoba and concentrated organic botanical extracts of gotu kola, acerola, honeysuckle and white lupine — to name a few. These natural and organic compounds work synergistically to delay the visible signs of aging and are proven to have wrinkle-fighting properties resulting in reduced surface area wrinkles and the creation of new collagen.
Borage oil has been shown to decrease inflammation and improve overall skin health. It contains high amounts of gamma linolenic acid (GLA), a fatty acid that’s integral to the structure and function of your skin. It also boasts anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which can help promote wound healing and repair your skin’s natural barrier.
Also non-comedogenic, Jojoba oil has been touted for its ability to moisturize skin and fight fine lines. In fact, it has antibacterial and antioxidant properties and is full of vitamin E and other essential vitamins and minerals.
Rosehip Seed oil is also non-comedogenic and has been shown to have many skin benefits, including its ability to reduce wrinkles, brighten the skin and fade dark spots and scars, soothe redness and irritation, moisturize, prevent stretch marks and protect the skin from damage.
Sunflower Seed oil is rich in vitamins A, D & E, as well as essential fatty acids, imparting powerful moisturizing and soothing properties.
The soothing, moisturizing, and anti-inflammatory benefits of Honeysuckle promote healthy skin as it is known to cleanse the pores while evening skin tone and texture. Honeysuckle is known to be a good source of antioxidants, which work to reduce the signs of aging on the skin including minimizing fine lines and wrinkles.
Goji berries have been highly regarded for their nutritional and therapeutic benefits while providing antioxidant properties. The berries are known to increase cellular communication and contain anti‐inflammatory capabilities.
Centella asiatica, more commonly referred to as Gotu Kola, is believed to reduce inflammation, stimulate collagen production and aid in wound healing.
Also known as Barbados cherry, Acerola is a tropical plant providing an excellent source of vitamins and minerals necessary to promote healthy, revitalized skin.
Extracts of Green Tea also contain polyphenols such as catechin, gallogatechin, epicatechin, epigallocatechin, epicatechingallate and epigallocatechgallate (EGCG). The antioxidant activity attributed to these polyphenols includes scavenging of the superoxide anion, hydroxyl and peroxyl radicals and the inhibition of lipid peroxidation and oxidation of low-density lipoproteins. These radicals are all thought to increase the physical appearance of aging by breaking down capillary strength, leading to dark under-eye circles. Using Green Tea helps boost the ability of our Goddess Facial Serum to protect the skin from environmental damage while diminishing the appearance of dark, unsightly circles under the eyes.
Macrocystis pyrifera, or giant kelp, is known to be rich in essential vitamins, minerals and nutritional compounds that nourish and condition the skin.
Like many nutrient-rich fruits, mandarin oranges are known for their potent hydrating and conditioning benefits plus they contain a generous amount of vitamin C.
Rooibos and willow bark are known for soothing properties and are commonly used in many traditional remedies. Both botanicals are commonly used for reducing irritation and combating inflammation.
Sea Buckthorn seed oil is rich in unsaturated fat, antioxidants, phytosterols, carotenoids and vitamins E and K — all of which function together to protect your skin’s integrity and promote its renewal. Sea buckthorn seed oil is also rich in palmitoleic acid, which is a type of fat naturally found in human skin that can be used to treat burns and promote wound healing. It’s also a good source of linoleic acid (LA), an omega-6 fatty acid that’s the most abundant fatty acid in human skin. Research suggests that LA may reduce acne and psoriasis, as well as protect against dry or scaly skin. In addition to LA, sea buckthorn oil contains other omega-6 fats, such as gamma linolenic acid (GLA), which may help reduce eczema and improve acne. Furthermore, compounds in sea buckthorn seed oil appear promising in protecting your skin from the damaging effects of UV rays from the sun.
White Lupine (seed) Extract (lupeol) is designed to stimulate the synthesis of a high-quality collagen to increase elasticity and firmness in the skin and help to lift the facial contour. Lupeol is extracted from the coatings of White Lupine seeds cultivated using sustainable agricultural practices in France. Once extracted, the lupeol is solubilized in oleic Sunflower oil and then semi-refined and stabilized by adding natural α-tocopherol, a form of vitamin E that is preferentially absorbed and accumulated in the skin. Lupine is a legume whose seeds are very high in protein and contain secondary oil and minor biologically active components A study that included 25 volunteers, ages 45- to 65-years-old, tested a lotion with lupeol for 89 days. 92% of the volunteers noticed improved firmness of the skin and 72% noticed reduced sagging of the facial contour.
Rosemary Extract has been shown to improve the quality of the skin while also healing blemishes and increasing the natural shine and hydrated appearance. Rosemary has also been known to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, protect the immune system, stimulate circulation, detoxify the body, protect the body from bacterial infections and prevent premature aging.
