6 of the best natural anti redness skin care ingredients
The best anti-redness skin care ingredients are natural, non-irritating actives that soothe and restore the skin barrier.
Apricot Stem Cells are a key ingredient in our Age Defy+ Soothing Anti-Redness Oil Serum and can be relied on to calm red and inflamed skin. Because they can increase the skin’s level of tolerance and improve microcirculation, these anti-redness plant cells help to reduce skin irritation and restore an even skin tone to redness-prone skin.
Sunflower Oil Unrefined organic sunflower seed oil is a botanical base oil that’s bursting with benefits for skin prone to redness. When cold-pressed into golden oil, sunflower seeds secrete fatty acids and Vitamin E which can calm, soften and protect the skin barrier. A gentle skin care oil that’s even suitable for ultra-sensitive skin, Sunflower Oil’s anti-inflammatory properties make it an ideal skin care ingredient for skin that’s prone to redness.
Camellia Seed Oil has similar properties to Sunflower Oil and sinks seamlessly into the skin without feeling greasy. An exceptional natural emollient it soothes and balances the skins texture whilst slowing down the skin’s rate of trans epidermal water loss (TEWL). Like Sunflower Oil, it is also rich in Oleic Acids, Linoleic Acids, Vitamin E and other skin-beneficial minerals. It also contains Squalene – an oil naturally produced by the skin which is typically lower in complexions that are prone to redness, eczema and irritation.
Squalane is an ultra-gentle anti-inflammatory emollient and is an ideal anti-redness skin care ingredient. This protective ingredient converts to Squalene once applied to the skin and then binds itself to moisture to form a seal on the outer layer of the skin. This supports the skin barrier and protects sensitive skin against redness and dehydration.
Sweet Almond Oil is another anti-redness oil that we love. Cold-pressed from Almond Tree Kernels this soothing, light oil is slowly absorbed and helps the skin to balance its loss and absorption of moisture to deliver long-lasting defence against skin dryness and irritation. Rich in Vitamin E, we use Sweet Almond Oil in our Age Defy+ Soothing Anti-Redness Oil Serum.
Northern Truffle is a real treat for soothing skin that’s prone to redness and irritation and has been shown to reduce skin reddening by as much as 90%. Ideal for relieving redness in sensitive skin, this plant active is scientifically proven to reduce skin reddening by 90% and reduce skin discomfort by up to 100% within minutes.
Used in our Nordic Roots Truffle Night Cream, it’s the perfect ingredient for helping to calm easily irritated skin at night and has even been shown to help increases the overall tolerance of skin to irritants.
