Plant power to the people

By Geraldine Fitzgerald

Codex Beauty Labs is a plant-based biotech beauty brand dedicated to supporting the microbiome, and pioneering products that have clinically proven, meaningful skincare benefits.

Codex just launched its Hydration Heroes kit in time for summer travel- wherever you are!

They’ve compiled a discovery set in easy-to-pack sizes, to keep skin refreshed, clam and hydrated. The product duo is packed full of effective ingredients that work for all skin types and are great for dry, flaky skin.

Each product in the Hydration Heroes Kit undergoes rigorous testing to ensure efficacy and is backed up by scientific data, allowing you to leave your skincare worries at home.

The products are proven to lock in moisture by not only attracting water, but also creating a protection layer on the skin’s surface to slow the evaporation process and improve the skin’s microbiome.

Retailing for €25, the Hydration Heroes Kit consists of:

Bia Exfoliating Wash - A gentle, creamy cleanser with exfoliating natural jojoba grains to remove dead skin cells without stripping moisture.

Bia Hydrating Skin Superfood - A rich, restoring cream containing the patented, potent BiaComplex formula, designed to soothe dry skin, help shed the outer dry layers, moisturize, and retain the water by improving osmotic function and forming a protective surface film. This soothing cream can be used on face; hands and body to smooth and soften all over, promoting a more even skin tone.

The Hydration Heroes range uses comfrey, immortelle, heartsease (wild pansy), calendula and marsh mallow for plant power with optimal results.
