WHY WE LOVE VITAMIN C
When our skin is over-exposed to environmental stressors such as UV rays and pollution, free radicals trigger the breakdown of our skins collagen, resulting in premature ageing in the form of fine lines and wrinkles, sagging, dark spots and hyperpigmentation.
Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant with free-radical scavenging properties working to prevent oxidative stress and future damage to our skin. Vitamin C also triggers the formation of fibroblasts in the skin which promotes natural collagen production, providing strength & structure.
Our own Bio-Fermented Gubinge is combined with a generous 12% THD Ascorbate (stable Vitamin C derivative) to deliver an unprecedented level of antioxidant protection and phytonutrients including:
- Vitamins
- Minerals
- Omegas 3, 6 & 9 fatty acids
- Enzymes
- Amino Acids
- Polyphenols (Gallic & Ellagic Acid) & Flavonoids
Although there are many forms of Vitamin C, we prefer to use THD ascorbate as it provides several advantages over L-ascorbic acid, including increased stability, better skin penetration, reduced irritation, a neutral pH, longer-lasting effects, enhanced collagen production and better compatibility with other skincare ingredients.
FULL INGREDIENT LIST
12% Vitamin C (THD Ascorbate): A stable, oil-soluble form of vitamin C that provides antioxidant protection, boosts collagen synthesis, and can help fade hyperpigmentation.
Bio-Fermented Kakadu Plum: We have bio-fermented our own Kakadu Plum which makes it an exceptional ingredient for brightening the skin, boosting collagen production, and reducing pigmentation. Gallic and ellagic acids offer strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits.
Organic Cold-Pressed Cacay Seed Oil: This luxurious, pure oil is abundant in Vitamin A (natural retinol) and Vitamin E to actively reduce inflammation, boost collagen production & help reduce the depth of fine lines.
Organic Cold-Pressed Buriti Fruit Oil: Buriti is rich in Omega-9 and beta-carotene (pro-vitamin A). When applied topically, it converts into an active form of retinol to promote cell regeneration and help with scarring. For centuries, indigenous peoples of the Amazon forest applied this oil as natural sun protection and to soothe burns.
Organic Cold-Pressed Blueberry Seed Oil: An antioxidant-rich superfood, high in the essential fatty acids Omegas 3 and 6 and alpha linolenic acid. These work to nourish the skin, fortify its resilience, and contribute to an overall radiant complexion.
Organic Cold-Pressed Strawberry Seed Oil: High levels of ellagic acid is anti-inflammatory, protects against UV rays and collagen degeneration and brightens skin without impacting cell DNA.
Organic Cold-Pressed Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Oil: An emollient containing avenanthramides (polyphenols) exclusive to oats with anti-inflammatory and anti-itch properties. Proteins and beta-glucan will moisturise and soothe irritated skin.

Results
Nourished, healthy & protected
Renew and Repair: Wild-harvested and ethically sourced from local growers in the Amazon, Cacay and Buriti contain high concentrations of Omega 3, 6 & 9 and naturally occurring Pro-Vitamin A (retinol precursor) to increase cell turnover and improve skin tone and texture.
Antioxidant Protection: Vitamin E, Blueberry Seed Oil and Strawberry Seed Oil contain natural ceramides, antioxidants and provide essential moisture to the skin, contributing radiant skin. SPF sunscreen has been shown to only block up to 55% of free radicals produced by UVA exposure. Studies have shown topical application of 10% Vitamin C to decrease the number of sunburn cells by 40-60%.
Moisturising: Oat Kernel Oil and Lecithin helps to seal in moisture and prevent transepidermal water loss (TEWL) for a dewy, healthy complexion.
PROCESS
DELIVERY SYSTEM
Biome Active Face Oil is designed to work synergistically with the skin's natural structure. The skin's outer layer (stratum corneum) - holds three key types of lipids: ceramides, cholesterol, and fatty acids. These lipids are integral to supporting the skins ability to retain moisture, protect from environmental pollutants and maintain resilience.
Biome Active Face Oil works to enhance the stratum corneum by mimicking and replenishing the omega fatty acids, ceramides and aminos. The treatment oil includes a carefully analysed selection of the finest nutrient-rich seed and nut oils to supply the optimal ratio of critical lipids, aiding in the regeneration of healthy cells and re-enforcing the skin's protective barrier. The result is a face oil that has a texture that feels like the natural sebum produced by your skin.
THD Ascorbate is one of the most effective and expensive forms of Vitamin C. As it is fat soluble, this biomimetic structure allows the active to penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin.
The biotransformation of wildcrafted Gubinge (Kakadu Plum) using probiotics can improve many of its characteristics and releases nutritional benefits, which is well documented in a range of studies. This process also produces postbiotics, which encompass beneficial compounds that support the skin's natural barrier.
