The Upcycled Bloom Behind Our HydrationIntroducing the key ingredient behind our Facial Moisturizing Cream: an extract derived from peach blossoms, made only from petals that have naturally fallen after bloom. Rather than harvesting live flowers, this ingredient is created through an upcycling process that uses petals the peach tree has already shed as it moves into fruit production — turning what would otherwise go to waste into a thoughtfully sourced skincare ingredient. The petals are collected from GAP-certified orchards in Cheongdo, South Korea, a region known for its peach cultivation. In lab studies, this extract has been shown to help support the skin's own hydration pathways, including its natural moisturizing factor and water-channel activity. In a consumer usage test, skin moisture levels increased shortly after application and remained elevated up to three hours later. It also forms a light, smoothing film on the skin, helping to soften the visible look of fine lines and enlarged pores, and is selected to support a calm, comfortable feel with everyday use. This ingredient reflects the broader approach behind our Facial Moisturizing Cream: thoughtfully sourced, backed by real testing, and designed to give something back to the process it comes from.
