BEHIND THE INGREDIENT
Anne Jensen skincare ingredients are carefully selected and matched to the skin's needs.
Nature has its own pharmacy and no two plants are the same, or have properties that suit all skin types or, can be used to solve all skincare problems, such as dry skin, oily skin, sensitive skin or +40 skin that has incipient lines. Fine lines appear due to the skin losing some of its elasticity. Can we remove the natural loss of skin elasticity? No, we can't but we can help the skin stay healthy and retain its radiance and elasticity for as long as possible, both through a good varied diet but also by giving the skin an extra boost with the right skincare. Here we are fortunate that nature's vast pharmacy of good plants and flowers on land and at sea, can help us on our way by using the plants and their properties that are targeted to different skin types.
Skincare is all about finding the right skincare for your skin type.
Here we give you a little insight into how the ingredients work.
