African Botanics Silver Rescue Cream

African Botanics Silver Rescue CreamSilver Rescue is a soothing, anti-inflammatory healing cream that I adore using as the last step in my skincare routine (day or night). It’s especially lovely over retinol. It helps with reducing redness & inflammation, improves skin barrier function & relieves the signs of skin stress.

This thoughtfully formulated potion is a panacea for stressed skin, designed to work for all skin types & states and especially for sensitive skin or any skin that is experiencing the effects of environmental stressors. It is wonderfully anti-inflammatory & soothing. It helps calm and revive the skin with an extraordinary blend of protective plant extracts like Resurrection plant and Devil’s Claw that are rich in Glycosides, Phytosterols, Flavonoids, Trehalose sugar, Polysaccharides, and Arbutin which helps regenerate the skin, quickly hydrating it to minimize Trans epidermal water loss (TEWL). Baobab fruit, Vitamin E, Squalane, Marula Oil, Rosehip, and Marigold extract help to protect the skin & reduce skin reactivity and redness. It is such a wonderful cream to have in your skincare arsenal whether you may need it as soothing after-sun skincare, or in the transition between seasons, as it straddles beautifully, the changing needs of skin.

African Botanics Eye Contour Gel-Serum

It is a concentrated cooling gel-serum for the under eyes and the eye contour, that targets the appearance of puffiness, dark circles, fine lines, and wrinkles while visibly soothing, tightening, and reinforcing the barrier function of the skin. The ingredient list reads like a master class in skincare with Ceramides, Oligosaccharides, Yeast Beta-Glucan, Vitamin B3, Vitamin C, and fucoidan-rich Seaweed extract. These help plump & deeply moisturize while supporting the synthesis of epidermal elastin. Caffeine, Arnica, Copper, and Dragon’s blood extract help drain, revitalize, and activate microcirculation reducing puffiness and dark circles. I notice very quick depuffing & tightening of the skin under my eyes. It also contains a very intriguing ingredient: Bulbine frutescens, a unique, perennial plant native to South Africa. It has been used by the indigenous people for centuries for its healing properties. It is a succulent with a gel-like sap (like Aloe) & this sap has wound-healing & anti-inflammatory properties & has been used for generations to heal everything from insect bites, burns, to blisters & skin irritation.
