Shungite is included for its traditionally valued antioxidant properties in personal care.

Sugar maple extract is described as having a nourishing role in cosmetic formulas, supporting overall skin feel after rinsing.
- Neither ingredient is presented as a moisturizer on its own; the moisture-binding work comes mainly from glycerin.
- The smoothing after-feel comes from hydrolyzed silk protein forming a light surface film.
Together, the four components target cleansing plus post-wash comfort: clean skin, less tightness, and a smoother surface. This is a cosmetic effect only and is not a substitute for medical skin care if you have a diagnosed condition.
