Arnica & Edelweiss: Alpine Botanicals for Healthy, Glowing Skin

Beautiful makeup always starts with healthy, happy skin. That’s why botanical ingredients like arnica and edelweiss are at the heart of our clean beauty formulas. These Alpine wonders have long been trusted by professional makeup artists and beauty enthusiasts for their ability to soothe, protect, and hydrate the skin.

Why Arnica Is a Skincare Essential

Arnica montana is a flower native to the Alpine region, prized for its calming properties. In modern botanical skincare and clean makeup, arnica plays a key role in supporting sensitive complexions.

Benefits of Arnica for Skin:

• Soothes and calms irritation thanks to natural anti-inflammatory compounds.

• Reduces redness and swelling, making it ideal for skin prone to stress or flare-ups.

• Supports recovery for sensitive, delicate, or post-treated skin.

📌 Pro Insight: Dermatological research shows that arnica contains flavonoids and sesquiterpene lactones, compounds known to reduce skin inflammation and visible irritation.

Why Edelweiss Is Called the Alpine Power Flower

Edelweiss is a resilient white flower that thrives in the harsh conditions of the Alps. Its survival secrets translate into remarkable antioxidant skincare benefits.

Benefits of Edelweiss in Skincare:

• Antioxidant-rich: Protects against free radicals and premature aging.

• Strengthens the skin barrier: Helps improve elasticity and resilience.

• Deep hydration: Provides lasting moisture while shielding against environmental stressors like pollution and UV exposure.

📌 Science Spotlight: Edelweiss extract contains leontopodic acid, a potent antioxidant shown to help reduce oxidative stress and maintain skin firmness.

Gentle, Effective, and Suitable for All Skin Types

When thoughtfully formulated, arnica and edelweiss work in synergy:

• Arnica calms inflammation and minimizes redness.

• Edelweiss hydrates and protects, helping skin look and feel stronger.

This makes Alpine botanicals an excellent choice for:
