How SWEDEST Nourish Your Skin
Every ingredient has a purpose. Together they work to nourish, soften, protect, and support healthy-looking lips and skin.
Sea Buckthorn
Sea buckthorn is a nutrient-rich plant known for its skin benefits, including hydration, antioxidant protection, and wound healing, due to its high levels of vitamins A, C, and E, omega fatty acids (including omega-7), and other antioxidants like flavonoids and carotenoids. It is beneficial for the skin because it helps repair the skin's moisture barrier, soothes irritation and redness, reduces the appearance of fine lines and scarring, and can improve overall skin tone and brightness.
Castor Seed Oil
Castor seed oil, or castor oil, is safe and beneficial for moisturizing and soothing dry or chapped lips. It is rich in the fatty acid ricinoleic acid, which helps to hydrate and create a protective barrier on the skin. You can apply pure castor oil directly to your lips or use it as an ingredient in a homemade lip balm.
Rosehip Oil
Rosehip oil is good for lips because it is rich in vitamins and essential fatty acids that provide deep hydration, repair dry or cracked skin, and help reduce pigmentation. Its nourishing properties help to soften the lips, improve texture, and protect them from environmental damage, making lips feel softer, smoother, and look healthier.
Candelilla Wax
A vegan, plant-based wax that creates a gentle, lightweight barrier on the lips. It helps lock in moisture, improves smoothness, and adds the silky glide SWEDEST products are known for. Candelilla wax is ideal for those wanting effective protection without heaviness and is especially friendly to sensitive skin.
Calendula
Calendula is good for lips because it has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties that soothe irritation, as well as moisturizing oils that hydrate and protect the skin. It helps calm chapped or cracked lips, speeds up the healing process, and provides a protective barrier against environmental damage from wind and sun.
Jojoba Oil
Jojoba oil benefits the skin by moisturizing, soothing inflammation, and balancing oil production due to its similarity to human sebum. It is also rich in antioxidants like vitamin E, which helps protect against environmental damage, and can improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Because it is non-comedogenic, it can be used on acne-prone skin without clogging pores.
Shea Butter
Shea butter benefits the lips by providing intense moisture, which softens and soothes dry, chapped lips. It acts as an emollient to lock in moisture and form a protective barrier, contains nourishing vitamins A and E, and has anti-inflammatory properties to help heal irritation and reduce inflammation.
Grape Seed Oil
Grape seed oil is beneficial for both lips and skin because it is a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizer rich in antioxidants, vitamin E, and fatty acids. For skin, it can help smooth, moisturize, and soothe various conditions while also aiding in anti-aging by reducing fine lines and improving skin tone. For lips, it is an effective moisturizer that can prevent and treat dryness and chapping.
Mango Butter
Mango butter is good for lips and skin because it provides deep hydration, protects against environmental damage, and soothes dryness. It is rich in essential fatty acids, vitamins A, C, and E, and antioxidants that help to repair the skin's lipid barrier, which prevents moisture loss and protects against irritants like wind and pollution.
