Intensely and long-lasting hydration
Aloe Arborescens, bio-alkaline water, vegetable glycerin and vegetable lecithin help maintain optimal skin hydration, leaving skin soft, supple and radiant all day long.
Nourishes and strengthens the skin barrier
Flaxseed oil, naturally rich in essential fatty acids, combined with Shea Butter and Rice Wax, helps restore the skin's hydrolipidic film, combating dryness, flaking and loss of suppleness.
Soothes sensitive skin prone to redness
Aloe Arborescens and Echinacea extracts provide valuable soothing and restorative cosmetic benefits, helping to comfort sensitive, chapped skin or skin exposed to the elements, sun, wind and temperature fluctuations.
Protects against oxidative stress
Green Tea and Ginseng extracts naturally deliver polyphenols, catechins and antioxidant compounds that help combat the free radicals responsible for premature skin ageing, promoting more vital and radiant skin.
Improves firmness and suppleness
The synergy between Flaxseed oil, Shea Butter, Ginseng and citrus essential oils helps keep skin firm, supple and pleasantly toned, gradually improving its appearance.
Promotes superficial microcirculation
Ruscus and Horse Chestnut extracts are traditionally used in cosmetics to support skin microcirculation, helping to reduce the sensation of tired skin and improve the natural nourishment of the tissues.
Protects against external aggressors
The presence of plant waxes, oils and herbal extracts creates a cosmetic barrier that helps protect the skin from wind, cold, pollution and environmental dehydration.
Ideal for all skin types
The formula is particularly suitable for dry, sensitive, mature, dehydrated, chapped skin or skin prone to loss of firmness, but is also suitable as a daily treatment to maintain the physiological balance of normal skin.

The Nourishing Moisturizing Face Cream envelops the skin in a soft, rich, and velvety texture that gently melts into the epidermis without feeling heavy.
It absorbs gradually and evenly, leaving the face immediately softer, more elastic, and pleasantly protected, with no greasy feel or occlusive residue.
The natural aromatic notes of the essential oils of Lemon, Sweet Orange, Grapefruit, and Lavender provide a delicate botanical fragrance that conveys a sense of cleanliness, balance, and well-being with every application.
From the very first applications, the skin appears more nourished, radiant, and smooth. With daily use, it progressively regains comfort, elasticity, and softness, maintaining a naturally healthy and vital appearance.
