Blackcurrant
Blackcurrant Seed Oil is particularly high in gamma linolenic essential fatty acid, particularly Omega 6 and Omega 3. Called “essential” because our body cannot reproduce them, they form part of the lipid layer and are vital for healthy skin. They help prevent skin dryness, restore optimal moisture balance and maintain the skin’s barrier function.
Allantoin
This extract, from the root of the comfrey plant, has soothing and healing properties and is effective against infection. The plant is also used as an anti-wrinkle product.
Hyaluronic Acid
A superb moisturiser taken from fermented Soya proteins. A moisture binding ingredient which helps the skin to capture and hold onto water molecules.
Liquorice
This extract is anti-inflammatory and soothing. An antioxidant.
Marine Peptide
From the seaweed Enteromorpha compressa. This material works with the skin’s neuromediators, helping to block the message telling the skin cells to over-react to stress. It has a soothing action and improves the comfort of thin, sensitive and dry skin. It helps to reduce skin tightening, stinging and reddening.
Polysaccharides
These are molecules of neutrally charged sugars which are moisture binding and mimic the skin’s intercellular cementing. They provide structural support for the connective tissues.
Vitamin E
Has an antioxidant action. Believed to improve the use of oxygen in the tissues and increase the capillary circulation. Calms inflammation.

I have used this product for 6 years and find it very effective for calming the skin after a shave with conventional foam. I have also started to use the Comfort Shave, particularly in a hot climate such as Western Australia.
