This serum addresses a myriad of skin problems such as uneven tone, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, dullness and dryness. Our formula begins with a highly concentrated extraction of the kigelia fruit, also known as sausage fruit. Kigelia Africana is an indigenous fruit packed with a myriad of flavonoids and plant sterols. Apart from improving skin tone, the fruit is also revered for its soothing and calming effects on the skin. Gently extracted purple tea from the Kenyan mountains is combined with this. Unlike green tea, purple tea contains anthocyanin. Anthocyanin is a type of flavonoid that causes the coloration of healthy fruits such as blueberries. Purple tea also provides skin an infusion of free-radical fighting antioxidants. To further enhance skins age defenses, we've added natural pea peptides. Most skin care creams are made with synthetic peptides. Not only do many dermatologists explain that peptides are too large to enter the skin, the introduction of synthetic ingredients to the skin can confuse skin as the skin does not know how to compartmentalize synthetic ingredients. Natural peptides are potentially better synthesized by the skin allowing the skin to reap maximum benefits without negative responses. Natural peptides are believed to bind moisture to skin as well as smooth and tone skin. Vitamin B3 receives accolades for improving skin tone, skin brightening and moisturizing abilities. ?This anti-aging cocktail is the first defense against maturing and damaged skin. With regular use, apart from achieving soft, even-toned skin, signs of aging and sun damage are reduced.An Ancient Secret to Firmness and Anti-Aging from African Women
