Key Active Ingredients
Organic Papaya Extract
Pro Vitamin B5
* Product is Fragrance and Alcohol Free
This Papaya & Pro Vitamin B5 Toner lifts pore clogging debris and remaining traces of the cleanser to refresh, intensely hydrate, protect and restore pH balance.
Papaya has natural and effective exfoliating properties to brighten the skin by removing dead skin cells and flaky patches on the top layer of your skin.
Pro Vitamin B5 aka Panthenol keeps your skin hydrated and attracts water to the outer skin layer, holding moisture whilst improving the skin’s elasticity including a more supple appearance.
Unlike other common moisturising ingredients such as Hyaluronic Acid, Panthenol has the added advantage of acting as both a humectant and an emollient. Humectants attract to and bind water to the skin, while emollients seal in the cracks in the skin, keeping that water locked in.
This Toner is alcohol-free and fragrance-free, ensuring that it is suitable for all types of skin.

Cleansing Oil or
Cream. Dampen a cotton wool pad and sweep over face and neck every morning and night. Avoid contact with eyes. Follow with daily

INGREDIENT PROFILES
- ORGANIC PAPAYA EXTRACT
The many benefits of papaya can be attributed to the high content of vitamins A, B, and C and it is naturally rich in Alpha-Hydroxyl Acids (AHAs). Its proteolytic enzymes, such as papain and chymopapain also have antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral properties.
The papain found in papaya soothes skin irritations and its anti-inflammatory properties make it an ideal ingredient for acne and blemish-prone skin. Its natural and effective exfoliating properties brighten the skin by removing dead skin cells and flaky patches on the top layer of your skin.

PRO-VITAMIN B5 (Panthenol)
Panthenol converts into Pro-Vitamin B5 or Pantothenic Acid in contact with skin.
It attracts water to the outer skin layer and deeply hydrates the skin, holding moisture whilst improving the skin’s elasticity including a more supple appearance.
Unlike other common moisturising ingredients such as Hyaluronic Acid, Panthenol has the added advantage of acting as both a humectant and an emollient. Humectants attract to and bind water to the skin, while emollients seal in the cracks in the skin, keeping that water locked in.
Clinical research has found that not only is Pro-Vitamin B5 extremely moisturising, but when regularly used over a period of four weeks or more it can help to take on an anti-inflammatory role, relieving systemic itching, whilst also helping to soothe dry skin, accelerating wound healing. *Ebner F, Heller A, Rippke F, Tausch I (2002). "Topical Use of Dexpanthenol in Skin Disorders". American Journal of Clinical Dermatology. 3 (6): 427–433.
Topically applied Pro-Vitamin B5 in amounts between 1-5% has been reported to aid in healing and barrier repair.
