Key Ingredients and Their Benefits
Honey is a natural skincare ingredient possessing antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties, along with antibacterial effects that aid in exfoliating the skin.
Rice has proven anti-aging properties due to its ability to encourage collagen production. Additionally, rice is a natural exfoliant, helping to remove dead skin cells and reveal a radiant complexion.
Centella asiatica, also known as CICA or gotu kola, is a plant with a long history of use in folk medicine. Modern science has confirmed its benefits, identifying key active compounds like asiaticoside, madecassoside, asiatic acid, and madecassic acid (centellosides). These compounds stimulate the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), including hyaluronic acid, and promote wound healing by enhancing collagen synthesis and antioxidant activity. Centella Asiatica is also recognized for its wound healing, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties.
Oatmeal, specifically colloidal oatmeal, is beneficial for dry, itchy, or rash-prone skin.
