A facial cream is an important part of any skincare routine because it moisturises the skin, prevents its dehydration, provides the skin with nutrients, protects it from the environment, and even slows down the ageing process. The best face creams are infused with botanical (plant-based) ingredients. For example, Belarusian company Bio World offers a collection of botanic facial creams for all skin types.
Botanical ingredients are the among the very first cosmetic ingredients known to humanity. They are derived from different parts of plants, including leaves, stems, flowers, roots, seeds, etc. Botanical ingredients are classified into several types (carrier oils, essential oils, herbal extracts, etc.) based on their chemical structure, properties, and method of extraction.
Bio World has combined effective botanical ingredients (shea butter, cocoa butter, coconut oil, safflower oil, black cumin oil, sesame oil, rhubarb extract, sage extract, ginger root extract, basil extract, aloe vera leaf juice) with other active ingredients (hyaluronic acid, allantoin, MossCellTec, vitamin E) to provide all skin types with excellent care.
Carrier oils, for example, provide the skin with essential fatty acids and other nutrients, help to lock in moisture, and make the skin softer and smoother. Bio World creams contain enough oils to take care of your skin but not too much so that they won’t clog your pores and cause breakouts or greasy complexion.
Herbal extracts have a wide range of skin benefits. They combat free radicals and prevent premature skin ageing due to containing antioxidants, balance the skin, improve complexion, prevent inflammation and acne, stimulate skin regeneration and renewal, and keep the skin looking and feeling healthy at all times.
MossCellTec is an innovative active ingredient that was developed in Switzerland and patented in 2018. Its main function is the enhancement of cell nucleus function. As a result, MossCellTec makes the skin more resilient and thus slower to age. This ingredient helps the skin to adapt to environmental changes and resist aggressive factors, keeps it moisturised even under stress, and gives you a flawless and radiant complexion.
Hyaluronic acid, also known as hyaluronan, is a hydrating agent naturally produced by human body. When used as a cosmetic ingredient, it promotes healthier skin, boosts skin elasticity and firmness, smooths out fine lines and reduces deeper wrinkles, and prevents dehydration by locking moisture in the deeper levels of the epidermis.
Allantoin is a soothing ingredient that prevents inflammation and stimulates skin regeneration. Vitamin E (tocopherol) has antioxidant properties; it prevents premature skin ageing by neutralising the harmful effects of free radicals.
Now that we’ve learnt about the key active ingredients that can be found in Bio World’s botanic facial creams, let’s get a closer look at the creams themselves.
Balancing Botanic Day Cream is designed for oily and combination skin. This amazing product normalises sebum production in the epidermis and thus prevents greasy complexion for up to 8 hours, which makes it a great make-up base. In addition, it makes the skin smoother and produces an anti-inflammatory effect, preventing acne breakouts.
Regenerating Botanic Day Cream takes care of oily and combination skin during the night. It helps to restore and maintain the skin’s natural hydro-lipid balance, soothes irritated skin, prevents the growth of acne-causing bacteria on the skin surface, and stimulates skin regeneration while you’re getting your beauty sleep.
Unlike the previous two products, Moisturising Botanic Day Cream is designed for normal and dry skin. It moisturises the skin and keeps it hydrated throughout the day, as well as prevents premature wrinkles by boosting collagen and elastin synthesis in the epidermis. Like its counterpart for oily and combination skin, it can be used as a make-up base.
Hydrating Botanic Night Cream by Bio World is another product for dry and normal skin. It has a strong revitalising effect. The cream boosts skin regeneration and renewal, improves skin cell metabolism, enhances skin firmness and elasticity, and reduces the signs of fatigue, giving you a healthy and glowing complexion.
All Bio World’s botanic facial creams are 100% vegan and at least 93% natural. They do not contain any parabens, silicones, mineral oil, gluten, or synthetic dyes. You can buy all four creams in our online shop Organic Store for a reasonable price.
