Grapefruit & Rosemary Firming Body Butter

Cera alba, commonly known as beeswax, offers numerous skin benefits primarily as a protective and deeply moisturising ingredient that is well-tolerated by most skin types. Beeswax is an occlusive agent, meaning it creates a breathable, protective layer on the skin's surface. This shield helps defend the skin from environmental irritants and pollutants without clogging. This protective barrier is highly effective at preventing transepidermal water loss, thus sealing in moisture and ensuring long-lasting hydration, which results in softer, smoother skin.

Grapefruit extract and oil are powerful skincare multitaskers that provide brightening, exfoliating, and anti-ageing benefits, primarily due to their high concentration of Vitamin C and natural alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs). Vitamin C stimulates collagen production, which can help firm the skin and soften the appearance of lines, wrinkles and cellulitis. Grapefruit's antiseptic and antimicrobial properties (particularly from the peel oil) help balance sebum production and reduce skin inflammation risks.

Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) provides numerous skin benefits, most notably potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties that help protect the skin from damage, soothe irritation, and promote healing and regeneration. Rosemary is rich in potent antioxidants like rosmarinic acid, carnosic acid, and carnosol, which help neutralize damaging free radicals caused by UV exposure, pollution, and everyday stress. The anti-inflammatory properties of rosemary can significantly reduce redness, puffiness, and irritation associated with conditions such as acne, eczema, and rosacea.
