• Calendula / marigold is particularly known for its anti-inflammatory, soothing and wound healing properties. It also promotes collagen formation and helps to produce new tissue (an important process in wound healing) and carotenoids strengthen the skin's protective barrier. Very well tolerated, also suitable for baby skin. Secondary plant substances, the so-called flavonoids, have an antioxidant effect and protect the skin from damage that can be caused by free radicals.
• Sea buckthorn kernel oil (Hippophae rhamnoides fruit / seed oil) is rich in anti-inflammatory omega fatty acids, which makes it particularly beneficial for inflammatory skin conditions such as acne, eczema and rosacea. Sea buckthorn is an excellent source of vitamin A, which increases cell turnover and promotes the regeneration of skin cells. The concentration of vitamin C in this powerful oil provides antioxidant protection, strengthens collagen in the skin and reduces the appearance of wrinkles and photoaging.
• Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is an integral part of Ayurveda and is also known as "Indian ginseng". The adaptogen supports collagen production, has strong antioxidant properties and has an antimicrobial and antibacterial effect.
• Goji berries are full of antioxidants and amino acids. Goji berries help firm the skin, reduce inflammation and stimulate blood circulation.
• Vitamin C is a very powerful antioxidant that has a balancing effect on the skin tone and promotes an even complexion. Vitamin C can reduce sun damage and pigment spots and combats inflammation and skin irritation. Strengthens collagen production and supports a radiant complexion.

The skin stays healthy and soft, is optimally supplied with moisture and looks nice and smooth. Hemp oil can also help with skin problems such as psoriasis, neurodermatitis or itchy and reddened skin. The anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and antimicrobial effects of stearic acid, for example, are responsible for this. This soothes sensitive and irritated skin, allows pimples and small wounds to heal faster, prevents scars and prevents diseases. Gamma-linolenic acid binds water and thus provides a cushioning effect. The skin looks plump and wrinkles can be reduced.

FAQ

Apply Active Infusion Oil after the Hydrate phase (Hydrating Accelerator, Hydration Boost Concentrate) and before the Protection phase (Vital Balm Cream).

Q.) Can I use the AIO on the same days as the Daily Acid Toner?

A.) Yes, you can use AIO in the same routine as Daily Acid Toner - the ingredients in DAT support the efficacy of the Vitamin C and Retinoid in AIO.

Q.) Is AIO safe for sensitive skin conditions?

A.) Yes, AIO is effective and safe for all skin types including sensitive and rosacea conditions.

Q.) What is the percentage of Vitamin C and Retinoid in AIO?

A.) We do not share the percentages of actives. They are at clinical, effective concentrations formulated with supporting ingredients to deliver visible results. For some, results may appear within the first week of use, for others, visible results may be slower and require 4-6 months to see an improvement in texture and skin structure.

Q.) Can I use AIO in the daytime?

A.) Yes, as long as you also use a sunscreen such as our Nutrient Day Cream SPF 30.

Q.) Will AIO thin my skin because of the retinoid?

A.) No, that is a myth. Overall, retinoids actually improve skin health including thickening the living layers of the dermis making the skin's appearance more plump, smooth, and less wrinkled.

Q.) Can I use AIO if my skin is sensitive to vitamin C?

A.) It is common for other Vitamin C products to cause irritation when formulated with pure L-ascorbic acid which requires a very low pH, stability concerns, and skin penetration issues that can increase sensitivity. AIO is very well tolerated by even ultra sensitive skin types because it contains an oil-soluble derivative of L ascorbic acid
that is very gentle and effective.

Q.) Can I use AIO if I already use a prescription retinoid such as tretinoin (brand name Retin-A)?

A.) Yes. AIO can be added to a skin care routine that already includes a prescription retinoid such as tretinoin or tazarotene. We recommend you tune into your skin and alternate the products so they are not applied at the same time. For example, use the prescription as directed 3-4 nights a week and add the AIO in the mornings only.

Q.) How quickly will I see results?

A.) You may see an improvement in smoothness and glow within a week. At approximately 12 weeks you can expect to start seeing improvements in skin tone and texture and appearance of fine lines.

Q.) Why are retinoids not recommended for use during pregnancy?

A.) Vitamin A impacts cell turnover, and in theory could have an effect on a baby's development in utero. No ethical scientific institution would conduct studies on preg-
nant women, so there is no evidence to support or contradict theories in this area. Therefore we err on the side of caution and recommend avoiding Vitamin A and its derivatives during pregnancy.
