Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

Skin Conditioning

This is a yellow-greenish oil cold-pressed from cranberry sides that's packed with a balanced 1:1 ratio of omega-3 (linolenic acid) and omega-6 (linolenic acid) fatty acids at around 30-38%.

There's also a solid dose of skin-nourishing omega-9, vitamin E, and polyphenols.

In cosmetics, it functions as an emollient with real staying power for hydration and barrier support.

Studies show it reduces oxidative stress in cells, lowers inflammatory markers, and has wound-healing potential that outperformed standard treatments in animal models.

It's also been shown to have antimicrobial properties against problematic bacteria while promoting beneficial skin flora.

Allergic reactions are rare but patch testing is a good idea if you have sensitive skin or fruit allergies.

Typical use concentrations are usually 2-20%.
