While amazing scents are the signature of Archipelago Botanical’s product lines, they embrace ingredients that offer more than just aroma. Archipelago products offer amazing benefits for the skin, from skin-smoothing and exfoliation to hydration and repair. Explore the simple ingredients in these formulas that can make a world of difference in your skin.

Ingredients that inspire the senses – and transform skin

Discover how the following fragrant ingredients can also improve your complexion:

• Milk: Teeming with strengthening proteins, nourishing vitamins and exfoliating lactic acid, milk can help balance your skin care diet.

• Mint: As an aromatic ingredient, mint can soothe the senses and repair skin. Mint contains vitamins to calm irritation and strengthen tissues, and salicylic acid to control excess oil and gently exfoliate.

• Grapefruit: Rich in citric acid, grapefruit extract is a powerful exfoliator, yet gentle enough for dry skin.

• Soy: Teeming with essential minerals, vitamins and amino acids, soy strengthens skin at its core to improve texture and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

• Oat: Oat includes a powerful compound called beta glucan that’s tiny enough to penetrate pores and boost hydration. It also soothes irritation and is rich in skin-healthy compounds including amino acids.

• Pomegranate: This exotic fruit is packed with antioxidants and vitamins that can restore and repair skin from environmental damage for a more youthful, radiant complexion.
