TepezcohuiteUpdated 10 months ago

Tepezcohuite is a true power beauty ingredient. Originally used by the Maya to soothe burns and facilitate their healing, it is now known in particular for its positive properties for the appearance of our skin. Tepezcohuite reduces fine lines, refines the skin's texture and minimizes blackheads and large pores. Here are some of the key active ingredients in Tepezcohuite explained:

• Tannin: Tannin has astringent and anti-inflammatory properties that can help tighten and soothe the skin. Tepezcohuite is particularly rich in tannin and therefore has particularly many benefits for the skin
• Saponins: Saponins have cleansing properties and can help refine pores and remove excess oil and dirt from the skin.
• Flavonoids: Flavonoids are powerful antioxidants that help protect the skin from free radical damage. They can also help stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin.
• Alkaloids: Alkaloids have anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties that can help soothe irritated or inflamed skin.
• Zinc: Zinc is an important component of collagen and elastin, the two proteins responsible for skin's firmness and elasticity. Zinc also aids in wound healing and can fight acne.

In summary, the active ingredients of natural Tepezcohuite can help firm, cleanse, soothe, protect against antioxidant damage, stimulate collagen production, and promote wound healing.

Tepezcohuite is found in our serums and toners as well as our Exfoliating Peeling Bar and our Tepezcohuite & Arcilla Mask.
