Calendula Extract: Derived from the plant commonly known as pot marigold, it is used for its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties.

Hops Extract: Historically, hops extract was used in folk medicine as a tonic, sedative and anti-inflammatory agent to reduce swelling. Today, the cosmetic industry uses hops extracts in lotions and creams for its skin-softening properties.

Biotin: Also known as vitamin H, a water-soluble vitamin produced in the body by certain types of intestinal bacteria and obtained from food.
