99% natural origin, 7% organic origin, vegan. The aromatic profile comes from the Rosa Damascena Flower Water hydrosol. No added Parfum is listed in the supplier INCI. This product contains Chamomilla Recutita (Camomile) Flower Extract from the Asteraceae (daisy) plant family, which includes beneficial botanicals (chamomile, calendula, arnica, helichrysum) and common allergens including ragweed. If you have a known sensitivity to plants in this family (ragweed, chamomile, arnica, chrysanthemum, marigold, echinacea, or yarrow), you may be at higher risk of contact sensitivity. Rose-sensitive users should also patch test. Patch test on the inner forearm for 24 hours before use, and discontinue if a reaction occurs.
The hydration stack pairs three complementary humectants with a flower-water carrier. Rosa Damascena (Rose) Flower Water is a steam-distilled hydrosol of damask rose that provides the aqueous base and a light floral aromatic profile. Glycerin is the workhorse humectant, Sodium PCA is a component of the skin's natural moisturising factor listed with humectant and skin-conditioning functions in EU CosIng, and Sodium Hyaluronate completes the humectant trio. Hyaluronic acid is a glycosaminoglycan naturally present in skin that can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water1. Chamomilla Recutita (Camomile) Flower Extract supplies the soothing component, and Fragaria Ananassa (Strawberry) Fruit Extract contributes a trace polyphenol antioxidant. Lactic Acid and Citric Acid are present at pH-adjuster trace level only. This is not an exfoliating toner.

Each formula stands on its own and belongs to the whole. Layered with intention, morning and night, the routine becomes unmistakably yours.
A twenty four hour rhythm
THE SKIN KEEPS TIME
Skin is not the same at midnight as it is at nine in the morning. Across a single day its temperature, its acidity and the moisture it loses to the air each move on a rhythm of their own. Morning and night are not two routines. They are one, kept in time.
