PLE

PLE (Polypodium Leucotomos) is a fern extract. The indigenous people of South American discovered that PLE helped protect their skin when they chewed on fern leaves and PLE is still used that same way today in oral supplements. Dr. Whitten has pioneered the use of PLE extract for skin recovery and Solscense is the first skincare line in the world to use it in a topical cream.

 

Oatmeal Extract

While aging, the skin’s natural barrier becomes compromised. One of the most effective remedies recommended by dermatologists is oatmeal oil, recognized for its soothing and beneficial qualities. A highly advanced extraction process was used to create our proprietary and deeply effective CO2 Artic Oatmeal Extract.

 

Aromabalm

Our fragrance is no idle ingredient. This fragrance, based on the widely admired Asian Sweet Olive flower, prevents skin inflammation by benefitting the neuro-protective and free radical reduction in skin cells.

 

Boronia Megastigma

Boronia Magestigma is a flower extract and much like lavendar, is known for cooling and soothing the skin.

 

Rosemary

This herb contains a rich source of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds that boost the immune system and improve blood circulation.

Sunflower Seed Oil

Shea Butter

Shea butter is a natural inflammatory and keeps skin moist and supple.

Sandalwood oil

This oil is high in antioxidants, reduces inflammation, has been widely used in treating many skin disorders.

 

Sunflower (Helianthus Annuus)

The linoleic acid present in sunflowers works to reinforce the skin barrier. This helps to reduce moisture loss from the skin surface, which results in an improvement in overall hydration. Additionally, the included Vitamin E also provides antioxidant advantages that allow it to neutralize free-radicals that are present in the environment.

 

Coconut Extract (Coconut Alkenes)

A highly desirable skin-repairing ingredient due to its mix of fatty acids that skin can utilize to repair its surface and resist moisture loss.

 

Vitamin C (Aminopropyl Ascorbyl Phosphate)

A powerful antioxidant with many anti-aging benefits such as building collagen, defending the skin against free-radicals, healing inflammation, reducing the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles, and lightening discolorations.

 

Squalene

Squalane is an antioxidant, prevents UV damage and the formation of age spots, promotes cell growth and is an antibacterial. It is a natural moisturizer, and is one of the most common lipids produced by human skin cells.

Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide)

Niacinamide is a derivative of Vitamin B3 that suppresses melanin from reaching the surface of the skin and protects the skin from further UV damage. The topical application of this vitamin is known to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, hyper-pigmented spots, red blotchiness, skin sallowness, and improve elasticity.

 

Cholesterol

What is cholesterol doing in my skin cream? Cholesterol is one of three major lipid classes found in the skin that serve essential functions in terms of good skin health.  Unhealthy skin has low levels of cholesterol so a small amount applied topically will help rejuvenate your skin.

 

Ceramides

These are a family of waxy lipid molecules which are found in high concentrations within the cell membranes. Together with saturated fatty acids, ceramide creates a water-impermeable, protective layer to help avoid excessive water loss due to evaporation. With aging there is a decline in ceramide in humans and its addition provides a mild form of anti-wrinkle agent.
