Splendor of the Sun is a special blend of carotenoid-rich herbs, oils and extracts will make your skin sparkle & glow like the Sun.
☼
This pressed serum highlights the immense benefits of topical application of Carotenoids ~ the powerful yellow, red & orange pigments mainly found in flower & fruits. Scientists have discovered over 700 Carotenoids… beta-carotene, lutein, lycopene & astaxanthin are among the most well-known. Calendula flower alone contains over 19 different types of Carotenoids. This balm includes a special Calendula extract, as well as carefully selected oils & extracts that are rich in a large variety of Carotenoids, so you get a full-spectrum of benefits. This is unique as many balms might include a singular Carotenoid extract or one Carotenoid-rich oil, but there is nothing on the market that highlights the hundreds of Carotenoids found in nature.

Carotenoids are antioxidants with benefits ranging from photo protection, repairing photo(sun) damaged skin, preventing free radical damage to the cells and stimulating collagen & elastin in the skin to increase its density, elasticity and firmness. Carotenoids also help normalize and balance oil secretions from the sebaceous glands (great for acne prone skin!). They are valuable agents in skin repair and they stimulate epidermal regeneration, helping to smooth and soften skin.

This formulation is perfect for all skin types, especially Sun Lovers. A pressed serum is a mix between a facial oil and a facial balm, leaning more towards a balm with concentrated benefits. A little goes a long way. It is lightweight, fast-absorbing, layers well and will leave you glowing.

No added fragrance or essential oils. Unscented.
