science-backed, proven to work

Drawing upon the disciplines of biochemistry, neuroscience and the social sciences, our formulations support the body's natural circadian rhythm and are rigorously tested in clinical, fMRI and user studies.

expert advice

"When we sleep, our skin's natural repair processes are activated - detoxifying and renewing skin appearance. Transepidermal waterloss is at its highest overnight, meaning a hydrating moisturiser is essential."

geek mode

During the evening and overnight the skin performs natural processes that cleanse and promote skin renewal. It is whilst you sleep that you experience the highest levels of DNA repair, cell proliferations (where new stem cells replace ageing cells). The skin also experiences it's highest temperature and skin permeability contributing to transepidermal water loss.

Melatonin, released during the night, has an anti-oxidant effect which studies suggest protect skin against damaging UV light directly and also by promoting melatonin dependant biological pathways. Shortening our time exposed to darkness reduces the release of melatonin which can contribute to the adverse effects of UV on the skin.

Chronic short sleep and disruption of circadian rhythm are correlated with signs of accelerated skin ageing and diminished skin barrier function.

Our Functional Fragrance blend has been shown to prepare you for sleep, dispel anxiety and improve restorative sleep.

Aside from smelling luxuriously inviting, our Deep Sleep Functional Fragrance interacts with the limbic system — the area of the brain associated with emotions, pleasure and calmness — when tested in an fMRI study in 2017, which indicated that the fragrance has the potential to encourage a pre-disposition towards sleep.

Copper PCA

Improves skin barrier functions while firming and plumping the skin by promoting collagen and elastin production.

geek mode

Copper PCA is an essential trace element that plays a vital role in maintaining the structure and function of healthy skin. It’s crucial for collagen and elastin production, promoting skin firmness and resilience. You'll recognise it in our formulations by its distinctive naturally blue lagoon colour.

It effectively regulates sebaceous gland activity, making it particularly beneficial for oily skin. By reducing excess sebum production, it helps minimise shine and prevent breakouts. Its astringent and antimicrobial properties work to keep the skin clear and healthy, addressing concerns commonly associated with oily skin types.

Its effectiveness against unwanted pathogens like E. coli makes it ideal for promoting clearer, healthier skin while also supporting overall skin barrier function and hydration. With many adults in the UK, EU and the USA being copper deficient, incorporating Copper PCA into skincare helps replenish this important nutrient and supports a youthful appearance.

Ceramides

Helps to fight signs of fatigue and support skin renewal.

geek mode

Ceramides are essential lipids that help to maintain the skin's protective barrier. They help lock in moisture, prevent transepidermal water loss and therefore improve skin hydration. Ideal for dry or sensitive skin they restore balance and help promote a healthier, more radiant complexion.

Persian Silk Tree Extract

Revitalises tired skin, reducing dark circles and dullness while protecting against glycation for improved radiance and firmness.

geek mode

Persian silk tree extract is known for its remarkable ability to combat signs of fatigue. It helps reduce dark circles, under-eye bags and dull complexions. By protecting and repairing skin from damage caused by glycation, it revitalises tired skin, restoring radiance and suppleness.

The protective effects are twofold: firstly, it prevents the onset of glycation, which can lead to visible ageing and fatigue. Secondly, it provides a reparative effect by detoxifying harmful byproducts associated with glycation, helping to restore the skin's natural vibrancy. This dual action results in a noticeable improvement in the overall appearance of the skin.

In clinical studies involving women aged 31-50, 80% reported improvements in skin fatigue and slackening within just one month of use. If you’re looking to revitalise tired skin and enhance its texture and firmness, this natural extract supports a youthful, luminous complexion.
