Ingredient Spotlight: Cassia Angustifolia

When it comes to achieving healthy and glowing skin, hydration is key. One ingredient that has gained significant attention in the skincare industry for its exceptional hydratin properties is Cassia Angustifolia. Derived from the seeds of the Indian Senna plant, Cassia Angustifolia extract is rich in polysaccharides - hydration megastars.

Here's what happens with daily use:
Intense Hydration: Cassia Angustifolia is renowned for its exceptional ability to provide intense hydration to the skin. It acts as a potent humectant, attracting moisture from the environment and binding it to the skin, creating a protective barrier that prevents moisture loss. This helps to keep your skin adequately hydrated throughout the day, resulting in a plump, supple, dewy complexion.
Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Our skin gradually loses its natural moisture content with age, forming fine lines and wrinkles. Cassia Angustifolia's deep moisturization properties help restore the skin's elasticity, resulting in a smoother and more youthful complexion.
Soothes and Calms Irritated Skin: For those with sensitive or easily irritated skin, Cassia Angustifolia offers a soothing and calming effect. It possesses anti-inflammatory properties that can help alleviate redness, irritation, and itching.
Natural Source of Antioxidants: Cassia Angustifolia is rich in antioxidants, which play a vital role in protecting the skin against free radicals and environmental damage. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can cause premature aging and cellular damage. (Pssst. You know who else plays a role in protecting against free radicals? Vitamin C.)

This dewy, lightweight, concentrated serum plumps skin with powerful plant-based hydration. It absorbs quickly into the skin, providing long-lasting hydration throughout the day. Fine lines and surface dryness are reduced with the help of Cassia Angustifolia, one of three powerhouse humectants in this serum. Vegan, biodegradable and safe for all skin types. We love to wear this serum by first cleansing with the Seas the Day Creamy Gel Cleanser, then, following serum application, locking in the hydration with an oil or moisturizer. Just sit back and watch as Moon Dew turns parched skin into cozy, glowing skin.
