ONE Step - TEN Actions
- Multiple Potent Antioxidants (catechins and Vitamins A, C, B5, K, E, B6, B3, D) to reduce cell death and cell injury, the major cause of aging.
- Multiple Hydrators (including Omega 3, 6, 9 and 7) to improve tissue matrix affinity, plump and firm cells, and reduce the appearance of fine lines.
- Brightens by breaking up pigmentation, reduce age spots and counteract photo-aging, and improve the appearance of dark circles under eyes, improving overall skin translucency.
- Stimulates to reduce the appearance of dark circles and improve radiance and fresh appearance.
- Promotes Cell Renewal to improve quality of skin and refine texture.
- Collagen and Elastin Production and Synthesis to improve the skin matrix and tissue affinity, and to support natural ceramide maintenance.
- Balances Skin Oils to reduce dryness and deep skin irritation, corresponding skin unevenness, and the eventual risk response of formation of dark pigmentation.
- Dissolves Dead Skin Cells to improve skin evenness, reduce congestion, improve smoothness and improve skin cell receptivity to phyto-actives.
- Anti-Microbial to support skin cell immunity.
- Substantiation supports hydration and improve skin’s tolerance to aggressive substances.

Native River Mint – contains 6 phyto-actives with potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory action.

Native Orange Pearl – rich in naturally occurring Vitamins A and C.
Native Seaweed – exceptional moisturisation and improves tissue matrix affinity.
Kangaroo Apple - contains amino acids that increase red blood cell production, so increasing transport of oxygen and nutrients to cells, and has a substantiator that improves skin’s tolerance to aggressive substances.
Tasmanian Mountain Pepper Berry – a powerful anti-inflammatory and shown to stimulate up to two times elastin and collagen.
Lemon Myrtle – balances skin oils and naturally anti-microbial.
Strawberry Gum - especially high in anti-aging phyto-actives gallocatechin and catechins, and flavones myricetin glycoside and quercetin glycoside.
Waratah – amplifies efficacy of Vitamin C and contains a powerful cocktail of phyto-compounds - amines, alkaloids, adenise, anthocyanin, tryptophan, chlorogenic acid, caffeoylquinic acid and tarpenois – for dramatic multiple anti-aging action.
Aniseed Myrtle - with procyanidins with antioxidant activity 20 and 50 times more potent than Vitamin C and Vitamin E, respectively. Also has been shown to counteract spontaneous DNA mutations both at the mitochondrial and the nuclear level. Anti-hyper-pigmentation active – significantly improves pigmentation caused by sun exposure and hormonal abnormalities.
Pandanus (Wild Pineapple) - with enzymes Papain and Bromelain that dissolve dead skin cells, rich in Vitamins K, C, B6 and D. Contains some Niacinamide (B3).
Emu Apple - Phenolic and ellagic acid glycosides which hydrate and soothe.
FORTIFIED with Niacinamide B3, Panthenol B5 and Hyaluronic Acid.
Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) targets skin texture, reduces the appearance of enlarged pores and regulates excess oil production, which can lead to blemishes, blackheads and acne. There is no naturally occurring suitable source of niacinamide available so we have fortified the pro-aging formula with added B3 for those who need it.
Panthenol (Vitamin B5) acts as an anti-inflammatory and helps soothe irritated skin and helps repair skin through encouraging the growth of new epithelial cells.
Hyaluronic Acid prompts skin to make more collagen, prevents tightness, boosts elasticity, and reduces scarring.
HOW TO USE IT
