Mimosa Tenuiflora Bark Extract

Tepezcohuite Bark Extract

Tepezcohuite is our hero ingredient, a Mexican bark long known as the "skin tree".

  • Strengthens your skin barrier: tannins gently tighten the skin's surface so it holds moisture better.
  • Supports natural renewal: arabinogalactans help skin renew and look fresher.
  • Protects from daily stress: antioxidants shield skin from pollution and the environment.
