Discover the skin-nourishing power of wild Yam Root with Blithe's Velvet Yam. Harvested from the longevity-rich Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica, these yams are celebrated for their nutritive profile, boasting a rich concoction of amino acids, sugars, and saponins. The root of the yam contains mucin, a mucous substance brimming with complex proteins combined with sugars, making it an excellent skincare ally. This natural botanical mucin contributes vital proteins that stimulate collagen synthesis and form a resilient yet thin moisture layer. Moreover, Velvet Yam incorporates Shea Butter and Macadamia Oil. Shea butter, a potent natural moisturizer, delivers exceptional hydration and promotes collagen synthesis for smoother, firmer skin. Its abundant Vitamins C, A, and E shield skin cells from aging and aid in the repair of damaged skin cells. Macadamia Oil, abundant in Palmitic acid, a plant-based fat, enhances skin cells' recuperative ability. Rich in Omega 7 and vitamin E, Macadamia Oil wards off skin dryness with its superior moisturizing effects. (**The aforementioned ingredients are recognized as safe for skincare use. These ingredients may provide skin-enhancing benefits, but do not induce direct changes/alterations to the skin) In keeping with Blithe's commitment to clean beauty, Velvet Yam is free of Formaldehyde, Gluten, Mineral Oil, Parabens, Phthalates, and Synthetic Fragrances. It's cruelty-free and has been hypoallergenic patch tested. Benefits: Skin Barrier Strengthening Vitalizing
