Sweet Almond Oil
It’s widely known as the “King of Nuts”, but did you know the mighty almond actually belongs in the same category as peaches and cherries? This tiny little morsel packs a major nutritional punch, not only when eaten, but when applied to your skin too!
When the almond tree was first domesticated in the Middle Eastern regions of the Mediterranean, it was quickly discovered that the oil extracted from the almond is extremely beneficial for healthy skin.
Almond oil contains all sorts of natural goodness that includes vitamin E, vitamin A, essential fatty acids, proteins, potassium, and zinc. It’s positively packed with vitamins and nutrients, making it perfect to include in your daily skincare regime.
Believe it or not, sweet almond oil is actually excellent at purging the skin of toxins, opening up pores, and retaining moisture that blocks the entry of dirty microbes.
Almonds are loaded with vitamin E, which is a powerful antioxidant that assists in maintaining beautiful skin as we age.
Collagen, the protein responsible for keeping our skin youthful, forms an even layer of padding under the skin. As we age, fine wrinkles begin to appear due to the thinning of the skin and unevenness in the collagen padding underneath. The vitamin E in sweet almond oil can provide the amino acids required for that lovely collagen to thrive.
The properties of the oil keep the skin’s moisture levels balanced, can rejuvenate the scar tissue, and can possibly even out the color and texture of the healing process left behind
Argan Oil
Argan oil is expressed from the seeds of the Argan tree, native to an area in southwestern Morocco. Argan oil provides a major boost of hydration to the skin, thanks to its high quantities of vitamin E. “Vitamin E also helps strengthen the skin’s barrier so it’s able to retain more hydration,” says West Hollywood-based celebrity esthetician and founder of SkinLab, Joshua Ross. Because it’s so nourishing, argan oil may also help your skin appear more youthful. “When we talk about thinning of the skin as we get older, we lose both collagen (the building blocks of skin) and the elasticity (the skin’s ability to snap back after being stretched), which leads to tissue paper-like wrinkling of the skin,” explains Dr. Ilyas.“
Shea butter
Shea butter is derived from shea tree nuts. It is creamy and off-white to ivory-colored. Shea butter is mainly made from shea tree oil in West Africa.
Shea butter is a great cosmetic ingredient to soften skin due to its high concentration of vitamins and fatty acids. Shea butter has healing and anti-inflammatory properties. Shea butter can be used on the skin, particularly the face, to condition and tone it.
Blackberry
Blackberries not only provide numerous internal health benefits, but they also benefit us externally, contributing to more vibrant skin and softer, shinier hair. Loaded with vitamins A and C, blackberries are the perfect age-fighting ingredient for a facial mask or scrub.
Vegeclairine and Organiclarine
Makari’s team of expert chemists formulated, developed, manufactured and patented “Vegeclairine” and “Organiclarine”, two non-toxic and non-chemical proprietary, high potency brightening complexes packed with natural, skin-caring natural botanicals that effectively targets hyperpigmentation fading dark spots, melasma, age spots, and post-hyperpigmentation inflammation, and evens skin tone revealing a more radiant, uniformed complexion.
Glycerin
Glycerin is great for the skin because it acts as a humectant, which is a substance that allows the skin to retain moisture. It can increase skin hydration, relieve dryness, and refresh the skin’s surface. Glycerin also has antimicrobial properties, which means it can protect the skin from harmful microorganisms
Allantoin
Extracted from the root of the comfrey plant, Allantoin is a non-irritating ingredient that soothes and protects the skin. With the ability to help heal the skin and stimulate the growth of new tissue, it’s a great all-rounder for keeping skin at the top of its game.
Arbutin
Arbutin is a cosmeceutical that fades hyperpigmentation meaning it works to fade sun spots, age spots, acne scars, and melasma. Plus, arbutin prevents future freckles and hyperpigmentation from developing, even after a sunburn.
Morius Alba
Morus alba (white mulberry) root extract has antioxidant properties, but its main benefit for skin has to do with calming signs of irritation along with its potential to fade the look of discolorations and uneven skin tone.
Ascorbic Acid
Ascorbic acid/Vitamin C is an antioxidant, meaning it protects skin cells from damaging free radicals caused by UV exposure. It also inhibits melanin production in the skin, which helps to lighten hyperpigmentation and brown spots, even out skin tone, and enhance skin radiance.
Vitamin E
Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that may be effective at reducing UV damage in the skin. And vitamin E applied topically may help nourish and protect your skin from damage caused by free radicals.
Citric Acid
Citric acid is a type of alpha-hydroxy acid that’s extracted from citrus fruits such as lemons, limes, oranges, and grapefruits, as well as other fruits such as berries. Citric acid is a natural astringent, helping to dry out excess oil and leaving the skin feeling nice and clean. Antioxidants like citric acid can help combat some of that oxidative stress to reveal brighter-looking skin.
