We want to introduce you to one of our most popular ingredients, which is so popular that we put it in our formulas! Chicory root is a perennial herb from the dandelion family. It frequently grows in Europe, Africa, Asia, and North America and is characterized by its bright blue flowers and spiky roots. This small plant could make a big difference to your skin! So here goes...

ALREADY HEARD OF THE MICROBIOME?

Your skin is controlled by millions of microorganisms that help it function properly and protect itself. It is therefore one of the most important parts of your body to take care of. As an effective natural prebiotic, chicory root inhibits the growth of harmful bacteria on your skin and provides a food source for good bacteria. This allows you to defeat bad bacteria and strengthen your skin barrier. Chicory root promotes the optimal balance of microbes on the skin and protects it from problems such as dryness, redness, and inflammation or even the development of conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.

TIME FOR A SKIN-TOX

If your stressed skin desperately needs a detox, chicory root is just what you need! This powerful ingredient contains antioxidant properties that can help neutralize free radicals on the skin and reduce stress caused by external factors. This keeps your skin healthy and your cells happy and healthy!

If your dry skin is stressed and itchy, our Intensive Rescue Trio with chicory root extract protects your skin from environmental influences that can lead to irritation and cracked skin, which in turn can lead to an outbreak of conditions such as eczema or psoriasis. In addition, these natural formulas provide deep moisture to the skin for up to 72 hours, so that the good ingredients remain locked in for even longer!

LOOKING FOR A BOOST?

If your skin looks a little dull, chicory root, with its collagen-promoting properties, can help maintain your skin's elasticity and ensure a bright, radiant complexion. This happens by supporting collagen synthesis, which accelerates collagen production and makes your skin look and feel less dull and tired. Sounds good, right?
