With a highly compromised and very fragile skin barrier, the upper layers of the epidermis are no longer strong enough to counteract harsh environments, which leads to Trans-Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL) – resulting in increasingly drier, and more vulnerable skin.
With the express purpose of recalibrating and strengthening the skin barrier, the Elixir was developed to boost the Skin Barrier, balance moisture levels, and return sensitised skin back to a more resilient and radiant state.
With a base of rare distilled Mallow, 5% Niacinamide and Panthenol, and ingredients including Saccharide Hydrolysate, Sodium PCA, Saccharide Isomerate, Allantoin, Rice Starch, as well as precious botanicals, this powerful yet gentle formula provides long-lasting hydration, soothes irritations, improves the skin's natural barrier and water retention function, reduces inflammations, fights free radicals, pollution and allergens, whilst brightening and repairing the skin.
All skin types, including sensitive, eczema, rosacea, and fragile skin, can all experience issues like acne, redness, and inflammation, therefore a deep cleansing and soothing mask is always beneficial to reset the skin. Nevertheless, things like hydration, moisture, skin barrier protection must also be taken into consideration, otherwise the skin may become more susceptible to bacterial or allergen.
The London Mask is inspired after 15 years in London, time has come to pay tribute to the city Pedro Catalá calls “home”.
A highly moisturising organic rice, purified kaolin and natural squalane based mask, enriched with comfrey derivates, mallow, cucumber and the purest vitamin B5, it helps eliminate toxins and repair skin damage due to air pollution. At the same time, this organic mask soothes and softens even the most stressed skin providing a unique radiant tone.
The London Mask comes in limited edition due to the high complexity of its preparation. 50 units are made by hand each month.
Suits people on post surgery care, people with stressed skin and lack of elasticity and hydration and those wishing more light and improve skin tone.
Retinol is the gold standard for anti-aging, particularly in regards to stimulating collagen and elastin synthesis to target wrinkles, fine lines, sagging, and loss of elasticity and firmness. Unfortunately, it may be too strong for those with sensitive, rosacea and eczema skin, while some people may also choose to avoid this active ingredient during pregnancy.
The first anti-aging serum from Twelve Beauty, Plant Perfection Gel Serum has been developed to target wrinkles, fine lines, sagging, as well as loss of elasticity and firmness due to collagen loss for all skin types, but in particular sensitive, rosacea, eczema and pregnant skin.
Enriched with Bidens Pilosa Extract, a botanical alternative to retinol, as well as trademarked and patented natural actives including Pepha®-Tight and Skinarch™, Plant Perfection has been formulated to transform the appearance of skin from the first application. Harnessing the latest skincare technology, the innovative formula creates an immediate tightening effect to the skin, whilst stimulating the natural production of quality collagen and elastin day and night, to reduce wrinkles and fine lines, and increase skin elasticity and firmness.
With a lightweight gel-lotion texture, it is further infused with plant-derived amino acids, Bacillus Ferment, and Jojoba Oil, and Cottonseed Oil etc. to protect the skin barrier, support the health of both the dermis and epidermis, fight free radicals, and soothe inflammations.
Day after day, the complexion becomes smoother, firmer, tighter, and more radiant.
Twelve Beauty Ideal Brightening Corrective Serum, enriched with 12 powerful organic ingredients, including Yarrow, Heath Speedwell, Primula, Peppermint and Lady's Mantle, naturally brightens the complexion by inhibiting melanin production and tyrosinase activity, whilst alleviating inflammations that contribute to skin discoloration.
Formulated with sensitive, inflamed skin in mind, these ingredients working in synergy have been proven to reduce the intensity of dark spots (including sun, age spots and acne marks), provide a more radiant, even skin tone, whilst correcting dullness and yellowness.
The result is a soothed, illuminated, even complexion.
There are many hydrating serums with hyaluronic acid products on the market, but when humidity is low, relying on a product with a high concentration of or low molecular sized hyaluronic acid cannot effectively hydrate the skin. This is because when humidity is lower than 70%, humectants like hyaluronic acid will not be able to easily pull water vapour from the air to add to the skin’s hydration level. In addition, studies have shown that when hyaluronic acid is broken down into very low molecular weight ( ≤ 25 kDA) or nano-sized, it can potentially pull bacteria and other unwanted ingredients more deeply into the skin, causing acne and inflammations!
Thus instead of low molecular weight hyaluronic acid, Twelve Beauty Ideal Moisture Level Serum selected Saccharide Isomerate, along with Panthenol (aka pro-vitamin B5) and Vegetable Glycerin to provide long-lasting hydration, while long-chain sodium hyaluronate forms a protective layer on the skin surface to lock in moisture, preventing trans-epidermal water loss.
The gentle yet powerful, anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial formula is further fortified with Organic Masterwort Leaf, Butterfly Bush, White Genepì and Mallow Extract to fight free radicals, soothe, calm, reduce redness, and inhibit collagen and elastin breakdown.
Theoretically, every 1°C increase in temperature can increase sebum secretion by 10%;on the other hand, air-conditioned or heated environments can dehydrate the skin, whilst UV rays and outdoor/indoor temperature differences can damage the skin barrier, causing a decrease in water retention function.
On the other hand, many ingredients in oil-controlling products may actually clog pores, or make the skin dry and dehydrated, and even cause irritation to more fragile skin, which in turn leads to skin flaking, redness, acne, and even inflammation. Further damage to the skin barrier will make it unable to repair itself, and the skin will become more and more dehydrated!
Particularly suitable for combination, oily, sensitive and acne-prone skin, Twelve Beauty’s Ideal Rebalancing Level Serum combines a series of natural ingredients such as Saccharide Isomerate and Panthenol to provide the skin with highly hydrating and water-locking, anti-inflammatory and soothing, and barrier repairing power
It is also infused with Willowherb to balance oil secretion, improve pores and acne, whilst Organic Masterwort Leaf, Butterfly Bush, White Genepì and Mallow Extract help to fight free radicals, soothe, calm, reduce redness, and inhibit collagen and elastin breakdown.
The common thing between dry, sensitive, and mature skin is a fragile skin barrier. The number one thing to avoid is foaming and harsh cleansers. This is because foaming agents, like SLS and SLES, can strip the skin of its natural oil, damage the skin barrier, and cause a decrease in the skin’s ability in retaining water and resisting bacteria. Not only does this result in dryness and tightness, it will also aggravate allergy, acne, or rosacea, eczema and other inflammation issues.
Therefore, for dry, sensitive, and mature skin, the ability to feed and nourish the skin while cleansing is the most important thing to look out for when choosing cleansing products.
Twelve Beauty Purifying Cleansing Beauty Cream, fortified with a high dose of Squalene, Sunflower Seed Oil, Butterfly Bush, Mallow, Masterwort, White Genepì, Glycerin, and Vitamin E, gently cleanses while respecting the lipid barrier, nourishes and repairs skin cells, and soothes inflammation, irritations and redness, making it particularly suitable for those with dry and tight skin, compromised skin barrier, or sensitive and inflammatory skin conditions.
This mild yet effective creamy milk formula leaves the skin revitalized, feeling super soft and hydrated.
Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive, eczema, rosacea, and inflammatory skin.
