Examples of Hero Ingredients

• Retinol - known as the "gold standard" of anti-aging ingredients, retinol helps to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone.
  
  
• Vitamin C – also known as ‘ascorbic acid’ is celebrated for its brightening and antioxidant properties, helping to combat sun damage, boost collagen production, and even skin tone.
  
  
• Hyaluronic Acid – a hydrating powerhouse, hyaluronic acid locks in moisture and plumps the skin, improving overall hydration and suppleness.
  
  
• AHA – the ingredient that revolutionised the beauty industry in the 1980’s, AHAs are the only ingredient that hydrates and exfoliates at the same time by working from the inside out. Also known as lactic and glycolic acids, these are effective exfoliants that help to reveal cleaner, clearer, fresher smoother skin by gently removing dead skin cells.
  
  
• Niacinamide - this versatile ingredient helps to regulate oil production, minimise pores, and reduce redness, making it a favourite for a variety of skin concerns.
  
  
• Sunscreen - perhaps the ultimate hero product, sunscreen protects the skin and the cells from UV damage which can cause premature aging, unwanted pigmentation and damage to skin cells, making it a must-have in any routine.
