Ingredient #1 - Hyaluronic Acid

A holy grail skincare ingredient, Hyaluronic acid is a skincare essential and all the skincare savants swear by it. Known as a humectant with excellent hydrating and nourishing properties, this ingredient replenishes the moisture that our skin loses as we age. While you may feel like hydration is not a requirement for summer skin, replenishing lost moisture is crucial.

Our top picks: Whether it's the Clarifying Creme or Revitalizing cleanser, Hyaluronic acid's low molecular weight in these products allows for penetration into deeper layers of the skin and hydrates it from within. If you’re looking for moisturizers then Nourishing moisturizer and Advanced Glow & Fairness cream in your best friend!

Ingredient #2 - Niacinamide 

A multitasker when it comes to summer skincare, this star ingredient has multiple benefits for the skin. From hydrating the skin to reducing the signs of aging, lightening dark spots, and treating acne - you name it, niacinamide does it. Also commonly known as vitamin B3, it reduces pigmentation, minimizes pores, and adds a natural glow to the skin, all while keeping oily-skin induced acne at bay.

Our top picks: This little wonder can be found in Flawless Glow Face Mask and Flawless Glow Brightening Scrub that works to re-plump and intensely hydrate the skin for a radiant, beautiful you!

Ingredient #3 - Aloe Vera

Aloe Vera has been used for skincare for years. A plant extract used to soothe and hydrate the skin while providing antioxidant benefits, Aloe vera has miraculous benefits in skin healing, especially for irritated and sunburnt skin. This age-old miracle ingredient is a staple for sunny summer days for all things refreshing. 

Our top picks: Flawless Glow Pack and Nourishing Ritual Pack are great options to get the most benefits of Aloe Vera in unison with other super ingredients simultaneously. 

Ingredient #4 - Glycerin 

A humectant that attracts moisture and prevents dryness by maintaining the skin's barrier, Glycerin is often used to treat skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. It is an essential skin ingredient as it prevents the skin from stripping dry due to over-washing. 

Our top picks: Revitalizing cream and Clarifying Microfoliant Scrub possesses the powers of glycerin that work effectively in reinforcing the skin's protective barrier. These products contain a complex of ingredients that work in sync to give your skin the nourishment that it deserves. 

Ingredient #5 - Alpha Arbutin 

Alpha Arbutin is a hero ingredient when it comes to lightening skin cells by inhibiting the production of melanin. It keeps tyrosinase in check that is responsible for skin tan and age spots and therefore helps brighten the skin and results in even skin tone even when the sun is shining bright. According to dermatologists, it is also dubbed as the secret for ultra-bright skin. 

Our top picks: Our Advance Glow and Fairness Cream is a bestseller that contains alpha arbutin. Infused with nature's best melanin inhibitors, this cream helps fade age spots, melasma, and all kinds of pigmentation.
