White Tea (Camellia Sinensis) - White Tea protects skin from oxidative stress and cellular damage caused by the sun. White Tea has also been found to prevent the enzyme activity that causes the breakdown of elastin and collagen. 


White Willow Bark (Salix Alba) - White Willow Bark contains a high amount of salicylic acid which causes dead/damaged skin to slough off more easily. The salicylic content prevents pore congestion and allows room for new cell growth. 


Wintergreen Oil (Methyl Salicylate) - Wintergreen oil increases blood circulation and the contraction of muscles and skin which gives firmness and lift to the skin. 


Witch Hazel (Hamamelis Virginiana) - A powerful antioxidant, Witch Hazel is packed with enzymes that aid in reducing inflamed cells. This natural astringent is central in any organic acne treatment.
