For hundreds of years,
First Nations peoples have used the herbs in the popular
Flor·Essence® Herbal Tea Blend to purify and
detoxify their bodies.
Since its introduction
to the general population in the last century, many
people have found that Flor·Essence® has a
beneficial effect when used topically, as well. Now, you
can refresh, revitalize, rejuvenate your skin with this
powerful combination of synergistic and nourishing herbs,
enhanced with other potent cosmetic ingredients designed
to penetrate and deliver the active ingredients into your
skin.
Ideal for all skin
types, Flor·Essence® Rejuvenating Cream helps to
normalize the functioning of the skin by supporting its
innate intelligence. As the body's largest organ, the
skin can regulate itself if given the right conditions.

extracts
from BURDOCK (Arctium lappa), SHEEP SORREL
(Rumex acetosella), SLIPPERY ELM (Ulmus
rubra), KELP (Laminaria digitata), BLESSED
THISTLE (Cnicus benedictus), WATERCRESS
(Nasturtium officinale) and RED CLOVER
(Trifolium pratense) -
A synergistic blend of 7 of the 8 herbs in
Flor·Essence® Herbal Tea Blend,
chosen for their antioxidant and anti-aging qualities.
These herbs detoxify both internally and externally,
supply essential vitamins and minerals, and stimulate
cellular regeneration. They also have antiseptic,
antiinflammatory and antibacterial qualities, and can
soothe and moisturize irritated skin. (Turkish rhubarb is
the 8th herb in Flor·Essence®; it is not
included in the cream because its detoxifying action is
purely internal.)
MEADOWFOAM
(Limnanthes alba) SEED
OIL - A very
moisturizing and extremely stable oil from a plant native
to the West coast of North America. Contains a potent
natural antioxidant and can extend the shelf life of
other less stable ingredients. Forms a non-greasy barrier
on the skin to prevent moisture loss, helping to reduce
wrinkles and signs of aging.
SODIUM
HYALURONATE -
Plant-sourced hyaluronic acid. A protein naturally
occurring in the skin, it moisturizes and conditions, and
is able to bind 1000 times its weight in water, keeping
skin moist and smooth. An excellent cellular renewal and
healing agent that is found in all human cells. Promotes
microcirculation and nutrient absorption.
MALIC
ACID - An
alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) derived from apples, malic acid
can help exfoliate the top layers of the epidermis. AHAs
also promote moisture restoration and help the
penetration of other ingredients in the
formula.
LACTIC
ACID - Produced by
bacterial fermentation. Lactic acid is among the mildest
of AHAs, and is used in dermatology to hydrate and smooth
dry, flaking skin by exfoliating surface skin
cells.
GRAPE
SEED (Vitis vinifera)
EXTRACT -
Masquelier's® Authentic Oligomeric
Proanthocyanidins (OPCs): a potent antioxidant. Helps to

microcirculation and strengthens collagen, resulting in
an anti-aging effect against sunburn and
wrinkles.

rough, scaly, dry or damaged skin. Helps normalize
hyper-pigmentation and heal sunburns through cellular
regeneration. Anti-aging, anti-wrinkle.

sunburns and improve microcirculation.

for the tissues. Extracted from the core of the wheat
kernel. High in vitamins E, B1, B6 and omega-6 essential
fatty acid.

emulsifier, surfactant and emollient. Helps to keep
moisture in the cream.

kernel oil. A solubilizer, lubricant and emulsifier that
protects and conditions the skin. Contributes to the
texture of the cream.

its own, it is an emollient, surfactant, moisturizer and
emulsifier. Stearic acid is also used in the production
of many other cosmetic ingredients.
SHEA
BUTTER
(Butyrospermum parkii) - A rich moisturizer
derived from the fruit of the Karite tree. Encourages

antioxidant properties.

the herbal tea blend used for centuries to cleanse and
detoxify from the inside out.
There is a strong
history behind using Flor·Essence®
topically as well as internally to cleanse and detoxify.
A First Nations healer, or maybe even your grandmother,

used the tea in a compress or as a spray. These herbs
have long been known to assist healing of burns and
irritations. We have modernized this traditional approach
by concentrating this herbal formula as never before;
this extract is the true essence of
Flor·Essence® Rejuvenating
Cream.
