SKIN TYPE
For women and men of all skin types. All ages. Benefits element-beaten, environmentally-challenged, toxin-overloaded skin.
RITUAL
Massage a small amount into skin outdoor activity. If you don't like the Zinc white Summer look, let it sink in for 5-10 minutes before heading out. Re-apply every two hours and after towelling. Can be worn under foundation or blended with make up if that's your thing, but be mindful that cocktailing dilutes the 18% active Zinc content and diminishes it's potency.

ABOUT WHOLE PLANT EXTRACTS
All our extracts are made by sun-infusing whole plant material into early harvest virgin cold pressed biodynamic Olive oil. First harvest, unripe Olives yield a beautifully nutrient oil with spectacularly high phenolic content, which stabilises and naturally preserves not only our extracts but also our skin.
In this ancient method of bioactive botanical extraction, we co-infuse all the compositions botanicals together, so they commune and synergise, enhancing each other's potency and bioavailablity.
Each plant component has a specific purpose that is intrinsically linked to other compounds. There is massive evidence now that synergistic whole plant extracts are much more powerful than isolated, single components.
