Understanding Skin Care Ingredients 🌿
The ingredient basics
All of our formulas contain a variety of ingredients, many of which promote the appearance of beautiful-looking skin. Examples include hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, peptides, cucumber, green tea, and activated charcoal.
Other ingredients are added to a product because they contribute to the overall appearance of texture, consistency, and aroma of that product. Examples include water (often used as a base), xanthan gum (a thickener), and essential oils for fragrance.
Astringents, exfoliants, and other words you may see
All of these ingredients can be further broken down into different categories based on their natural skin-supportive properties as well as how they enhance or support the look, feel, and smell of a product.
Astringents support healthy oil production to keep skin looking balanced
Exfoliants help skin appear smooth and revitalized
Humectants draw in moisture to help keep skin hydrated
Skin Conditioners help to nourish skin for a softer appearance
Surfactants are used as cleansing or foaming agents
Emollients promote the appearance of softer, smoother skin
Emulsifiers help bring different liquids together homogeneously (such as oil and water)
Fragrances add a distinct scent to the formulation
pH Adjusters maintain the overall stability of the formula to ensure efficacy
Thickeners give creams their luxurious feel and form
Preservatives prevent microbial growth for longer shelf life
Colors safely alter the color of a product
We’ve listed a few of our favorite ReignBeauty Co. ingredients below.
Aloe vera: Aloe helps to lock in moisture so your skin stays hydrated. We use aloe vera in our Royal-Tea Face Toner and our Rich Silk Moisturizer.
Argan oil: Argan oil supports healthy oil production to keep looking balanced. You can find argan oil in our KingInMe Beard Oil.
Hyaluronic acid: This natural substance keeps skin looking supple and hydrated, but our bodies produce less of it as we get older. Skin care products made with hyaluronic acid, including hydrating creams and serums, help retain moisture and promote the appearance of younger-looking skin. Look for it in ReignBeauty Co.'s Rich Silk Moisturizer.
Green tea: It’s not just delicious! Green tea has natural properties that support the appearance of clearer looking skin. It also helps prevent visible signs of aging. Our Royal-Tea Face Toner both contain green tea extract.
Niacinamide (vitamin B3): Niacinamide adds moisture and leaves skin feeling smooth and nourished. You can find it our Royal-Tea Face Toner, where it helps to brighten skin appearance.
Peptides: Peptides are short amino acid chains that act as building blocks for important proteins. They help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and puffiness. You can find peptides in our Royal Eye Serum.
Vitamin C: Its natural properties make vitamin C one of the most popular skin care ingredients. You can find it in our top-selling ReignC Serum where it helps to nourish the skin and reduce the appearance of age spots, uneven tones, and fine lines.
Vitamin E: Vitamin E promotes healthy, younger-looking skin. You can find it in a range of ReignBeauty Co. products, from our Royal Cleanser to our Royal Scrub.
