Key ingredients
Safou oil: A unique vegetable oil that ethically slows down the ageing process of the skin, naturally improving texture and elasticity. Rich in fatty acids, vitamin C and E, safou oil is fast acting, keeping the skin hydrated, protected and soothed.
L-Carnitine: It invigorates the skin’s natural energy production by assisting in the breakdown, metabolisation and oxidation of fats and lipids, particularly stored fats, firming and improving resilience of skin cells which allows it to retain a vibrant and youthful appearance.
Caffeine: It helps to boost blood flow, improving texture and promoting a healthy glow. A rich antioxidant, caffeine protects the skin against damage caused by free radicals, which can contribute to premature ageing.
Phosphatidylcholine: An effective water-binding agent increasing moisture levels and aiding in the effective penetration of other ingredients to condition and smooth the skin. Phosphatidylcholine acts as an emulsifier working to dissolve fat stored in localised adipocytes, improve the appearance of cellulite and support skin regeneration.
Massage into freshly cleansed after bathing or showering. Apply in a circular motion, insisting on the driest parts; your knees and elbows.
