Mystic Moisturiser - The Botanical Science Behind Everyday Skin Suppor – Althaea Soul

Let’s talk about moisturisers.
They’re often treated like background players in your skincare routine — a simple hydrator, the thing you put on last. But when done right, a moisturiser is so much more: it’s a skin barrier builder, an inflammation soother, and a delivery system for bioactive goodness.

Enter: Mystic Daily Moisturiser — your skin’s daily ritual of repair, balance, and botanical nourishment. Lightweight but effective, calming yet powerful, Mystic brings together nutrient-rich oils, native Australian extracts, and smart emulsifiers that mimic your skin’s own structure.

It doesn’t just sit on your skin — it works with it.

🌿 The Science-Backed Benefits

Mystic was designed to support the skin holistically — hydrating, soothing, and strengthening in equal measure. Every ingredient plays a role in that mission.

💧 Purified Water
Not just filler — it’s the hydration base that allows other actives to penetrate and spread evenly, delivering moisture deep into the skin.

🌱 Vegetable Glycerine
A humectant that pulls water from the air into your skin — great for hydration and long-lasting softness. Especially helpful in dry or air-conditioned environments.

🫒 Cetearyl Olivate & Sorbitan Olivate (from olive oil)
Together, these create a skin-identical emulsifier that helps deliver hydration more effectively. They also improve elasticity and prevent trans-epidermal water loss — keeping your barrier resilient and calm.

🌾 Cetearyl Alcohol
A fatty alcohol (the good kind!) that conditions the skin and gives Mystic its creamy, cushiony texture — no dryness, no irritation.

🌿 Jojoba Oil
Balances oil production by mimicking your skin’s natural sebum. It also helps reduce the appearance of redness and clogged pores, making it ideal for combo or acne-prone skin.

🌹 Rosehip Oil (Certified Organic)*
A potent source of vitamins A and C — encourages collagen production, speeds up skin regeneration, and softens the appearance of scars, dark spots, and sun damage.

🧴 Natural Vitamin E
A powerful antioxidant that protects skin cells from oxidative stress, locks in moisture, and supports long-term skin health.

🥑 Avocado Oil
Deeply nourishing and rich in fatty acids. It penetrates the skin easily, making it excellent for softening rough patches and restoring skin after sun exposure or environmental stress.

🌰 Macadamia Oil
High in squalene and palmitoleic acid — both vital for skin cell regeneration and hydration. Non-greasy, and highly compatible with sensitive or maturing skin.

🧪 Stearic Acid
Supports the skin’s protective barrier and improves texture by helping bind oil and water components into one stable, skin-loving formula.

⚖️ Carbomer & Sodium Hydroxide
These stabilisers ensure a smooth, even texture and optimal pH — gentle enough for sensitive skin, effective enough to keep ingredients potent.

🌿 The Botanical Actives

Where Mystic really shines is in its inclusion of native Australian botanicals — chosen for their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and skin-renewing properties.

🌸 Lavender Australian Oil
Calming and antimicrobial, this oil helps reduce redness and irritation while adding a subtle, spa-like aroma to your routine.

🌲 Sandalwood Australian Oil
Known for its regenerative and anti-inflammatory properties — ideal for softening fine lines, reducing irritation, and grounding the senses.

🌼 Agonis Fragrans (Fragonia) Oil
A lesser-known gem with both calming and antibacterial effects. Particularly beneficial for hormonal or inflamed skin that’s prone to flare-ups.

🌀 Cypress Blue Australian Oil
Naturally high in azulene — a compound famous for calming angry or reactive skin. Gives Mystic its soothing edge, especially for those with sensitivity.

🌿 Soya Bean Oil
Lightweight and fast-absorbing. It’s rich in lecithin and vitamin E, which help improve skin texture and enhance the absorption of other active ingredients.

🍒 Lilly Pilly Extract
An antioxidant-rich native fruit extract that helps tighten pores, brighten skin tone, and protect against free radical damage.

🍈 Kakadu Plum Extract
One of the richest sources of natural vitamin C on the planet. Brightens dull skin, helps even tone, and supports collagen production — a true Aussie superfruit.

🍑 Quandong Fruit Extract
Loaded with antioxidants, phenolic acids, and vitamin E. It hydrates deeply and gently exfoliates — helping reveal smoother, healthier-looking skin over time.

🍋 Citric Acid, Potassium Sorbate & Sodium Benzoate
Mild preservatives and pH balancers that keep Mystic fresh, stable, and effective — without compromising on skin-friendliness.
