Functions

Antioxidant

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

Skin Conditioning

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

Soothing

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

Neutralizes Free Radicals

Traditional Use

A copper carbonate mineral used in ancient Egypt and medieval Europe for pigmentation and ornamental purposes. Historical use in cosmetics included grinding the stone for eyeshadow, though modern cosmetic use is primarily decorative and mineral-based.
