Sacred Recovery Cream - Inside The Bottle – Althaea Soul

Most moisturisers play it safe. They hydrate, sure — but your skin doesn’t clock off at 5 PM.
It needs ongoing support: protection, nourishment, and repair through every change in stress, sleep, and season.

That’s where Sacred Recovery Cream comes in — a barrier-loving formula designed to restore calm, rebuild strength, and replenish moisture whenever your skin needs grounding.

This isn’t just a moisturiser.
It’s recovery on your terms — soft, soothing, and rooted in skin science.

Let’s Talk Formulation

Sacred is built for skin that’s been through something — dryness, stress, sensitivity, over-exfoliation, or hormonal shifts.
Each ingredient is chosen to feed, fortify, and protect your barrier so your complexion can find its rhythm again.

Purified Water
The foundation. Helps deliver key actives into the skin while keeping the formula soft and lightweight.

Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter)
A deeply nourishing plant butter packed with vitamins A and E. It calms irritation, smooths dry patches, and reinforces your skin’s protective barrier.

Glycerine
A humectant hero. Glycerine pulls water into the skin and helps maintain hydration throughout the day or night.

Cetearyl Alcohol
A fatty alcohol that softens and smooths without drying. It gives Sacred Recovery Cream its creamy, luxurious texture.

Avocado Oil
Rich in essential fatty acids, vitamin E, and antioxidants, avocado oil helps restore elasticity, soothe inflammation, and improve barrier integrity.

Capric/Caprylic Triglyceride
Derived from coconut oil, this emollient locks in moisture while giving the cream a silky, spreadable finish.

Sweet Almond Oil
Lightweight and vitamin-rich, almond oil brightens skin, reduces irritation, and softens without clogging pores.

Macadamia Oil
High in palmitoleic acid — a natural skin lipid — this oil is ideal for dry or mature skin needing deep replenishment.

Jojoba Oil
Mimics the skin’s own sebum, helping to balance oil production, prevent transepidermal water loss, and support a calm, even complexion.

Stearic Acid
A barrier-loving fatty acid that helps thicken the formula while protecting against moisture loss and environmental stress.

Isododecane & Cyclopentasiloxane
Weightless emollients that enhance spreadability, reduce water loss, and create a smooth finish without greasiness.

Ceteareth-20
Ensures the water and oil ingredients stay perfectly blended — so every application is as effective as the last.

Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C)
Supports collagen production, brightens dull skin, and provides antioxidant protection against free radical damage.

Rosehip Oil
A natural source of vitamin A and essential fatty acids. Helps improve skin tone, fade marks, and encourage cell renewal.

Evening Primrose Oil
Soothes sensitivity, balances skin prone to hormonal shifts, and supports elasticity and moisture retention.

Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa Butter)
Rich and indulgent, cocoa butter delivers deep hydration while improving skin softness and resilience.

Hydrolyzed Marine Collagen
Boosts elasticity and suppleness while supporting the skin’s structure — especially helpful for skin under stress or showing signs of fatigue.

DL-alpha-Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E)
A strong antioxidant that protects against oxidative stress, reduces scarring, and supports barrier function.

d-Panthenol (Vitamin B5)
Known for its healing and anti-inflammatory properties, panthenol helps soothe redness and promote long-lasting hydration.

PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil & Polysorbate 80
These gentle emulsifiers make sure your essential oils are evenly distributed throughout the cream — no separation, no surprises.

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder
A calming botanical that helps reduce inflammation, soothe irritation, and replenish lost moisture.

Dimethicone & Polysilicone-11
These modern silicones form a protective layer over the skin that locks in moisture while allowing it to breathe — zero clogging, just softness.

Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A derivative)
A gentle form of vitamin A that smooths texture, softens lines, and promotes healthy skin renewal over time.

Sodium Acrylate/ Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer & Acrylates C10-30 Alkyl Methacrylate Copolymer
Advanced texturisers that stabilise the formula and help hold hydration where it’s needed most.

Lecithin
A phospholipid that helps improve product absorption while supporting skin softness and suppleness.

d-Pantolactone, 3-aminopropan-1-ol & Xanthan Gum
Functional ingredients that maintain product stability and boost hydration efficiency.

Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil
Calming, comforting, and aromatherapeutic — lavender oil soothes skin and mind, creating a subtle sense of serenity in every application.

Phenoxyethanol & Ethylhexylglycerin
A gentle, modern preservative duo that keeps your cream fresh and effective without the need for parabens or harsh additives.
