What is it?

Rooibos, also known as African red tea, is obtained from the leaves of a plant belonging to the legume family, Aspalathus linearis , which grows in the South African mountain ranges. This plant has excellent properties for the health and harmony of the body: for this reason it is the perfect ingredient for a cosmetic line that has as its objective the well-being and beauty of the skin.

Features and benefits

Rooibos leaves are caffeine-free and contain multiple antioxidants and minerals (magnesium, potassium, manganese, iron and zinc). The extract is particularly suitable for skin care, due to the following qualities that distinguish it:

• ANTI-BACTERIAL: Rooibos extract is anti-allergic and anti-bacterial. It is excellent for fighting skin irritations, while being extremely gentle. Makes the skin soft and velvety.

• ANTI-OXIDANT: the high content of flavonoids, in addition to directly counteracting the main causes of cellular aging, is able to reactivate the vitamin E previously destroyed by free radicals, which a in turn nourishes and repairs the tissues.
