Nature Meets Science: A Deep Dive into Key Ingredients

Retinol [part of Dark Phyto Matter]
Derived from vitamin A, retinol is a widely recognized and potent skincare ingredient. The inclusion of retinol in the Dark Phyto-Matter harnesses its proven abilities to increase cell turnover and stimulate collagen production, effectively reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne [1].

Salicylic Acid [part of Dark Phyto Matter]
This beta hydroxy acid (BHA) is a powerful acne-fighting component found in Dark Phyto-Matter. Scientific research demonstrates salicylic acid's effectiveness in exfoliating the skin and unclogging pores, thus minimizing acne breakouts [2].

Witch Hazel*
A natural astringent with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, witch hazel helps to tighten and soothe the skin, reducing redness and inflammation associated with acne. Hydrolyzed Proteins: These proteins work to increase dermal density, brighten the skin, and provide defense against environmental hazards, further contributing to the set's innovative formula.

*Note: Witch hazel may cause irritation or allergic reactions in some; perform a patch test on a small area before use.

Vitamin C [SAP] [part of Dark Phyto Matter]
Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (SAP), a stable form of vitamin C, is an effective antioxidant that can improve the appearance of aging skin. It neutralizes free radicals, brightens the complexion, and encourages collagen production, resulting in a more youthful, radiant appearance [3].

Niacinamide [part of Dark Phyto Matter]
This form of vitamin B3 is a versatile skincare ingredient with numerous benefits, including reducing inflammation, improving skin elasticity, and diminishing hyperpigmentation. Niacinamide also helps to balance sebum production, which is essential for controlling acne breakouts [4].
