Natural EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor)
A biomimetic signalling molecule that works to activate the skin’s natural repair pathways. It encourages smoother texture by increasing cell turn over and supports structural integrity by promoting collagen production to help rebuild weakened, thinning skins.
Kombucha

Encapsulated Resveratrol
A potent antioxidant delivered through advanced encapsulation for increased stability and absorption. Helps neutralise environmental damage, reduces the appearance of inflammation and contributes to a healthier, brighter, more youthful-looking skin.
Beta Glucan
A potent oat-derived ingredient with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Supports skin immunity, soothes irritation and aids in wound healing and tissue repair.
Lipochroman-6
A high-performance antioxidant that protects against multiple types of free radicals, supporting skin vitality and glow. Its broad-spectrum defence helps reduce the visible impact of pollution, UV exposure and daily oxidative stress.

How It Works
Recovery Cream delivers a multifaceted strengthening and revitalising effect through advanced biomimetic actives designed to support healthy skin function.

Kombucha boosts visible radiance and softness, while Beta Glucan enhances hydration and reduces the look of redness. Antioxidant-rich Encapsulated Resveratrol and Lipochroman-6 defend proteins and lipids from oxidative stress, supporting smoother, stronger and more even-toned skin. Together with O’s Core Four, the skin is supported with enhanced hydration, radiance and protection.
