They deliver your daily dose of the good stuff—no smoothie or juice required—to leave you looking and feeling healthy from head to toe.
Spirulina
This blue-green algae, found in our Firming Eye Gel, is rich in essential fatty acids to nourish skin. It’s mineral-rich nutrients also help hydrate and reduce inflammation, helping pack serious anti-aging punch. With iron, calcium, magnesium, and various vitamins, spirulina is also considered a complete protein. Get all the amino acids your body can’t produce on its own by adding some to your next meal.
Horsetail
As ancient as they come, this plant has been a mainstay in herbal remedies for centuries. Its claim to fame? Silica. It helps strengthen bones, nails, and hair. To tresses, it also adds shine, improves texture, and helps promote growth thanks to its selenium content. Try our Hair Mask for Normal Hair with Rose & Apricot to reap the benefits.

Seaweed
Seaweed’s slimy appearance hides surprising beauty perks. Its ultra-hydrating, anti-aging, and anti-inflammatory powers leave the complexion glowing and fresh. Plus, its anti-bacterial properties, harnessed in our Bearberry Skin Balancing & Toning Mist, help fight acne. When added to your diet, seaweed is also an amazing source calcium, beating milk seven times over.
Spearmint
The gentler, milder sister of peppermint, spearmint contains the same scalp-stimulating, anti-fungal ingredient (menthol) to help boost blood and oxygen circulation to follicles. Healthy scalp—healthier, stronger hair. Find it in our Spearmint & Meadowsweet Scalp-Stimulating Shampoo, and add fresh spearmint leaves to your tea to ease digestion.
