Ingredients Explained

Emollient, Skin Conditioning

Cucumis Sativus Seed Oil is created from the seeds of the cucumber.

Cucumber seed oil is an emollient, meaning it helps hydrate the skin. Emollients create a barrier on the skin that prevents moisture from escaping.

Cucumber seed oil also contains Vitamin E, an antioxidant and soothing ingredient.

Coffea Arabica Seed Oil is a triglyceride (oil) from the green or roasted beans of the Arabica coffee plant (the same plant your coffee comes from).

Its fatty acid profile is dominated by linoleic acid (>40%), palmitic acid (~30%), and oleic acid. This ingredient also contains compounds like phytosterols, tocopherols, and small amounts of caffeine.

These compounds give it emollient, skin conditioning, and antioxidant properties.

One in vitro and ex vivo study on human skin models found this oil increased collagen, elastin, and glycosaminoglycan production in fibroblasts and upregulated a water-channel protein involved in epidermal hydration.

Some early data suggests modest UVB absorbing properties but this ingredient is not considered a sunscreen on its own.

Because it is rich in fatty acids, it may not be fungal acne safe.
