More reasons to LOVE Cucumber Cooling Mist:

There are many factors that contribute to dehydrated skin. These factors include environmental irritants, a change in season, not drinking enough water, or even using harmful or moisture-stripping products. Ceramides make up the skin’s natural moisture barrier. As we age and are exposed to water and sunlight, the ceramides decrease and the skin starts to show signs of dryness and wrinkles. Cucumbers contain 96% water, and when used in a hydrosol will help keep your skin ultra-soft and hydrated.

Cucumber hydrosol also helps to combat oiliness, since dehydrated skin produces more oil because it is compensating for a lack of moisture. Having an adequately hydrated face will help to improve skin elasticity which will reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

Cucumber hydrosols can actually lower sebum levels significantly. What causes acne is when this oily substance interacts with bacteria and dead skin cells, clogging up pores and eventually leading to breakouts. The hydrosol can work to reduce sebum levels, fighting against the catalyst for acne.

Cucumber hydrosols are packed with nutrients that are essential for your skin:

Magnesium – helps restore and facilitates safe and effective detoxification and encourages healthy skin tissue growth

Potassium – One of the reasons why many people suffer from dry skin is due to the deficiency of potassium. Potassium keeps the skin moisturized and hydrated internally

Vitamins A, B1, and C - vitamins that help keep your skin looking young and vibrant

Biotin – helps to improve the appearance of skin.

Caffeic Acid and folic acid - help increase collagen production and defend against signs of premature aging

Antioxidants – are molecules that help fight oxidative damage caused by free radicals. Antioxidants are chemicals that interact with and neutralize free radicals, thus preventing them from causing damage. Antioxidants are also known as “free radical scavengers.”

What are free radicals? - Free radicals are unstable molecules that can damage the cells in your body. They often occur as a result of normal metabolic processes, as well as environmental stressors (exposure to sun, wind and pollution, for instance). The body loses its ability to combat their effects as we age. This results in more free radicals, cell damage, and oxidative stress.

Hydrosol info:

These hydrosols are distilled using fresh plant material which captures the volatile components as well as cellular water from the living plant. The cellular water contains nutritious minerals, vitamins and antioxidants that impart the therapeutic and aromatic properties of the plant. They carry a lot of the same plant compounds as an essential oil but in a much less concentrated form. This makes cucumber hydrosol safe

for children, elderly and anyone with sensitivities.

Store below 30°C away from sunlight in a cool place. Patch test first.

If irritation occurs, discontinue use.
