Skin Plumping • Barrier Renewal Cream - 1 oz or 2 oz 
 
I created this balm as a deeply nourishing, skin-restoring formula designed to support a naturally fuller, smoother, and more radiant appearance—without harsh actives or unnecessary complexity.
At its foundation is grass-fed, grass-finished tallow, selected for its natural compatibility with the skin. Rich in skin-identical lipids, it helps reinforce the skin barrier, reduce moisture loss, and leave the skin feeling soft, calm, and visibly replenished.
 
🌿 Signature Texture & Natural Aroma
This balm has a beautiful cream-like consistency that feels smooth and refined on the skin.
Its fresh, delicate scent comes naturally from Green Tea Wax sourced from clean fields in Bulgaria.
No essential oils are used in this formula.
 
🌟 Star Botanical: Gotu Kola CO₂:
At the heart of this formula is Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica)—a botanical deeply respected in both traditional skincare and modern dermatological research.
 
Studies have shown that compounds in gotu kola, such as asiaticoside, may:
Support collagen synthesis and skin firmness
Improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
Enhance overall skin hydration and elasticity

I use a CO₂ extract to preserve its most valuable lipid-soluble compounds, allowing it to integrate seamlessly into this balm.
 
Organic Kakadu Plum — Natural Vitamin C Support
This formula is enriched with Kakadu Plum, one of the most concentrated natural sources of vitamin C.
Research highlights its exceptional antioxidant capacity and high phenolic content, which may help:
Support brighter, more even-looking skin
Protect against oxidative stress
Contribute to overall skin vitality
 
📚 Scientific context: Kakadu plum has been shown to exhibit very high antioxidant activity and polyphenol content, supporting skin protection and overall skin health (multiple studies indexed in PubMed Central).
 
Organic Pomegranate CO₂ — Elasticity & Renewal
I include organic pomegranate CO₂ extract for its ability to support skin resilience and renewal.
Pomegranate is rich in bioactive compounds that may:
Improve the appearance of skin elasticity
Support a firmer, more supple look
Help protect against environmental stress
