WILD IRISH YELLOW GORSE
Spring’s arrival brings the fragrant, golden bloom of Gorse—a striking yellow flower that instantly inspires happiness and optimism. Gorse is celebrated in aromatherapy for its unique, warm, and exotic coconut scent. It is prized for promoting emotional well-being and nourishing the skin. It is associated with hope, warmth, and inner joy.
SPANISH BROOM
The yellow pea-like blossoms are very fragrant (a vanilla-like aroma). It provides many benefits for the skin, including lightening dark spots, improving skin lustre, reducing the appearance of acne or other blemishes, and reducing the appearance of any visible scars. It is also used extensively in aromatherapy and works as a natural sleep aid.
TURMERIC POWDER
Gently fades dark spots and evens out skin tone for a natural, healthy glow. Powerfully soothes redness and calms skin irritation, making it excellent for acne or eczema-prone skin.
ANNATTO SEED EXTRACT
Packed with beta-carotene to protect skin cells from environmental damage and early ageing. Acts as a natural skin toner that helps maintain skin elasticity and firmness.
COCONUT FRUIT EXTRACT
Provides a deep moisture barrier; rich in lauric and palmitic acids, it locks in hydration and softens dry, flaky skin. Gently shields and cleanses pores while targeting breakout-causing bacteria. Offers soothing anti-inflammatory relief for irritated or environmentally stressed skin.
VANILLA EXTRACT
Provides anti-ageing protection, packed with high concentrations of antioxidants that neutralise free radicals and combat early signs of ageing. Brightens the skin tone, promotes healthy cellular turnover and circulation, helping to reveal a fresh, natural glow. Beyond skin radiance, its warm, sweet aroma triggers profound relaxation, lowering stress levels, which directly reflects as calm, healthy skin.
