All products contain a breakthrough botanical called PROTEASYL. This special ingredient (which, as a South African manufacturer, is unique to Beaucience) that works naturally with the skin to create a younger looking skin. As a baby, our skin is at an equilibrium where it is broken down and rebuilt on a continuous basis. As we age, due to slower metabolism and external factors, our skins breakdown much faster than that at which it is rebuilt. Our products are environmentally friendly and proudly South African.
