Herbal & Plant Extracts
Aurita uses medicinal grade extracts at therapeutic levels. These work to activate the natural functions of the body, fight environmental pollutions and stress.
Vitamins
Topically applied vitamins deliver instant nutrition and help prevent premature aging. Aurita Includes Vitamins A, C and E.
Emollient Oils and Waxes
Supple, lubricating, thickening agents that prevent water loss and have a softening and soothing effect on the skin. Aurita includes Macadamia Nut, Jojoba, Avocado and Olive Oils.
Essential Oils
Contain the healing, restorative & regenerative powers of plants. As implied by the term ‘aromatherapy’, they have a powerful effect through our sense of smell. Aurita includes Tea Tree, Rosemary, Lavender, Rose, Ylang Ylang.
Anti-Oxidants
Help slow down the action of free-radicals caused by pollution, ultraviolet light, toxins and other environmental factors. Free radicals attack and damage the skin, resulting in visible signs of ageing. Aurita includes Vitamins A, C and E, Rosmary Extract and Soy Bean Oil.
Biohyaluronate
Has a repetitive molecular structure that occurs naturally in the skin. Binds water tightly to ‘lock in’ moisture, “Carries” the main active ingredients into the skin (e.g. Vit C. Vit E), permeates the Basal Cell (upper) skin layer to help stimulate the production of collagen & elastin.
Spanish Earth Clays
Draw out impurities from the pores and surface of the skin to reveal new skin cells and improved texture and colour. Aurita includes Kaolin, Bentonite and Zeolite.
Emulsifiers
Combine water and oil to form a stable emulsion (cream). Aurita includes; Sodium Stearate, Cetyl Alcohol, Glycerol Stearate, Xanthan Gum.
Exfoliants
Eliminate dead skin cells and impurities to reveal fresh, luminous skin. Help accelerate the turn over time of skin cells. Aurita includes; crushed Walnut Shell, Loofah, Rice Bran, Walnut and Coffee.
Fruit Acid’s (AHA’s)
Alpha Hydroxy Fruit acids help remove the surface skin cells
(exfoliating), improving skin texture and colour. Skin is left feeling plump and glowing as the new skin layers are revealed. Some studies have shown these to be the most effective humectants which, when applied to the skin, draw water from the dermis into the epidermis. Aurita includes;
Bilberry Extract, Sugar Cane Extract, Sugar Maple Extract.
Humectants
Humectants help to draw water vapour from the surrounding air and attract it to the skin’s surface. Aurita ingredients include Bioyaluronate, Fruit Acids, Sodium PCa, Methyl Gluceth 20 and Glycerin.
