Functions

Skin Protecting
Helps rebuild and strengthen your skin barrier — the invisible shield that keeps moisture in and irritants out. Essential after over-exfoliating or harsh weather.
Nourishes & Protects
Traditional Use
Isolated compounds from Ginkgo biloba leaves; the plant itself has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for thousands of years, but biflavones as isolated ingredients represent modern extraction and standardization of the plant's active constituents.
