Thymoquinone: Your Skin's New Best Friend

Black cumin seed oil is a rockstar ingredient. A powerful anti-inflammatory compound called thymoquinone in the oil is extremely calming for overactive or problem skin. Acai, schisandra fruit, and rosehip seed provide essential fatty acids, antioxidants, and healing carotenoids to improve the skin’s tone and texture. With regular use, your skin should start to smooth and settle, with fewer breakouts and a less oily appearance throughout the day.
