Functions

Skin Conditioning

A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.

Antioxidant

Fights free radicals — the unstable molecules from UV, pollution, and stress that break down collagen and cause premature aging.

Soothing

Calms redness, irritation, and inflammation. Your skin's chill pill — great for sensitive, reactive, or post-procedure skin.

Astringent

Tightens and contracts skin tissue, temporarily shrinking pores and reducing oiliness. That "clean, tight" feeling after toner.

Locks in moisture

Traditional Use

Neem oil has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for over 4,000 years for skin purification, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory purposes. It remains a primary ingredient in traditional Indian skincare and has been extensively documented in Sanskrit medical texts.
