What is Banksia Flower Extract?
Benefits of Banksia Flower for Your Skin
One of the biggest advantages of using Banksia flower extract is its high antioxidant content. Antioxidants are essential for protecting the skin from oxidative stress, which can lead to premature ageing, fine lines and dullness. By neutralising free radicals caused by pollution, UV rays and other environmental factors, Banksia flower extract helps keep your skin looking youthful and vibrant.
If you live in a city or spend a lot of time outdoors, your skin is constantly exposed to pollutants that can accelerate the ageing process. Incorporating antioxidant-rich ingredients like Banksia flower extract into your routine helps create a barrier against these damaging elements, leaving your skin protected and healthy.
Banksia flower extract is also known for its soothing, anti-inflammatory properties. If you have sensitive, irritated or inflamed skin, this ingredient can help reduce redness and calm your complexion. It’s gentle enough for all skin types, but especially those with conditions like rosacea, eczema or acne-prone skin, where inflammation plays a key role. Its calming properties help to soothe irritation and create a more even, balanced complexion, making it a perfect choice for those with reactive skin.
Banksia flower extract also supports your skin’s hydration levels, helping to lock in moisture and prevent dryness. Combined with other nourishing ingredients like jacaranda flower and calendula in our Delicate Moisturiser, it helps keep your skin soft, supple and hydrated without feeling heavy or greasy.
This is especially beneficial in the warmer months when your skin can easily become dehydrated due to increased sun exposure and heat. Using products enriched with Banksia flower extract helps to maintain optimal moisture levels and keeps your skin feeling fresh and hydrated throughout the day.
Anti-Ageing Benefits
Thanks to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, Banksia flower extract can also help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. By protecting the skin from free radical damage and soothing irritation, it supports the skin’s natural repair processes, promoting a more youthful complexion over time.
It’s particularly effective when combined with hydrating ingredients like our Eternal hyaluronic serum, as the moisture boost can plump up the skin, making fine lines less noticeable. In our Delicate Moisturiser, this powerful combination of ingredients helps keep your skin looking smooth and youthful, making it a must-have in any anti-ageing routine.
