LIVE BOTANICAL - Temperate Forest Restoring Complex
This lightweight moisturizer delivers intense hydration to parched looking skin, promoting a balanced and refreshed appearance. Probiotic derivatives (postbiotics) and prebiotics support the skin’s natural flora, while snow mushroom and sea kelp create a protective hydration barrier for a smooth and bouncy feel.
Enriched with plant extracts including licorice, peony, milk thistle, oats, green tea, and echinacea, this formula helps improve the look of skin tone and texture. These ingredients work together to soothe, brighten, and defend against the visible effects of environmental stressors. Perfect for enhancing skin's natural radiance and hydration.
A temperate forest immerses the skin with moisture as you walk through trails of evergreens and mushrooms tucked under old growth. Along the waterways, wildflowers peak through the shrubbery, and giant sea kelp sway in the ocean waves.
Includes Live Botanical's Botanical Enrichment Method with advanced, potent extractions and encapsulation for optimal bioavailability & efficacy.

Postbiotics: The byproducts of probiotic fermentation, including short-chain fatty acids and peptides, support a balanced looking skin. This helps enhance hydration and improves the look of skin clarity and smoothness.
Snow Mushroom (Tremella fuciformis): Known for its exceptional water-binding properties, Snow Mushroom can hold nearly 500 times its weight in water, delivering deep hydration for a plump, refreshed appearance. It also contains antioxidants that protect against environmental stressors, promoting a radiant look. Live Botanical's COSMOS-approved active, with varying molecular weights, outperformed hyaluronic acid in clinical hydration tests.
Fermented Sea Kelp: A nutrient-rich ingredient containing vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that hydrate and fortify the skin.
Licorice Root: Contains glabridin, which reduces the appearance of dark spots for a more even looking skin tone. Its soothing properties make it a gentle option for addressing uneven skin tone.

Milk Thistle: Packed with antioxidants, this botanical supports skin clarity and protects against the visible effects of environmental stressors.
Green Tea: Rich in catechins like EGCG, Green Tea offers antioxidant benefits.
Echinacea: Contains polysaccharides and flavonoids that help soothe and protect the skin. Known for its antioxidant properties, it contributes to a refreshed appearance.
Marshmallow Root: Provides moisture and soothes the skin with its protective, hydration-sealing polysaccharides. It also delivers antioxidant care through phenolic compounds like quercetin.
Oats: A gentle hydrator containing beta-glucans, Oats offer calming and softening benefits, especially for dry or sensitive skin.
Squalane: Derived from sustainable amaranthus grain, this lightweight emollient softens the appearance of fine lines and helps lock in hydration, leaving a silky finish.
Hydrosols: Ponderosa Pine, Douglas Fir, Lavender, St. John's Wort, and Blue Cornflower hydrosols provide a calming foundation while enhancing the soothing properties of the formula.
How to Use: After cleansing and mists, apply 1-2 pumps to damp skin. Layer under your favorite moisturizer, oil, and/or balm to seal in all the hydration. It can be used day and night.
