BARRIER & PROTECTION
Your skin's outer layer takes the first hit from UV, pollution, and daily wear. These ingredients reinforce the barrier and block what shouldn't get through.
Bifida Ferment Filtrate — barrier repair at the cellular level (Moisturizer)
Ceramide NP — replaces lipids stripped by cleansing (Body Wash)
Ceramide Complex — broader barrier lipid blend alongside SPF (Moisturizer)
Squalane — plant-derived lipid, mirrors skin's own sebum (Moisturizer, Beard Oil)
Zinc Oxide — mineral UV filter, physical blocking (Moisturizer)
Avobenzone — UVA filter, covers the wavelength zinc misses (Moisturizer)
OIL CONTROL
Men produce roughly four times more sebum than women. These ingredients regulate oil without stripping the skin dry.
Niacinamide — regulates sebum production, tightens pores (Moisturizer, Body Wash)
Zinc PCA — controls oil at the source without drying (Body Wash)
RECOVERY
Shaving, sun, gym sessions, daily stress. These ingredients help skin bounce back from the damage it accumulates.
Panthenol — pro-vitamin B5, draws and holds moisture (Moisturizer, Body Wash)
Sea Buckthorn Oil — omega-7 rich, accelerates healing (Beard Oil)
Bisabolol — chamomile-derived anti-inflammatory (Beard Oil)
Centella Asiatica — stimulates collagen, supports wound healing (Body Wash)
