ENLARGED PORES

Textured skin is completely normal and pores serve critical functions but we can still reduce their appearance. Our pore-minimising products work to regulate oil production and exfoliate, resurface and tighten the skin for a smoother, more flawless complexion.

01

MultiMasker

Step 1

Our detoxifying clay-based exfoliating flash-peel purges pores of impurities, removes excess oil and harmonises the skin microbiome with clay extracts, lactic acid and prebiotics. It gives your skin turnover cycle a kick up its derriere to prevent the clogging of pores, bringing the power of an in-practice treatment home to reveal a smoother, more refined skin.

novA retinoid facial oil

Step 3

The holy graile of skin remodelling - our award-winning, 100% active advanced strength triple fusion retinoid oil reduces the appearance of pores by boosting collagen and elastin production to support the skin network surrounding the pores (If you think of your pore as a woven basket then retinoids will tighten the weave and make the basket smaller). Retinoids also increase the skin cell turnover cycle to prevent pore ‘clogging. The NovA Oil provides all the benefits of a prescription retinoid in an ultra-nourishing and oil-balancing formulation with no skin cycling or rest days necessary. The NovA Oil is the first step in our Retinoid Star System suitable for retinoid newbies and those with more sensitive skin types.

Cleansing Elixir

Free 225ml Product
(VALUED AT R745)

Our clay extracts are derived from volcanic minerals with an extraordinary detoxifying ability to absorb and neutralize environmental toxins, heavy metals, pollution, bacteria and viruses.  They are potently antioxidant and can boost glutathione and SOD enzyme levels protecting the critical lipids of the skin barrier from oxidative damage. Studies have also shown natural antihistamine properties decreasing skin inflammation and allergic reactions by 57%. 
Found in: Mask Antidote, MultiMasker
Clay extracts
Our skin superstar, Niacinamide or Vitamin B3 has been extensively researched and shown to have so many good effects on the skin when used in a 4-5% concentration (as we have in all our root4 products).  
•	moisturizer/humectant

•	helps with wound healing
•	skin brightening 
•	can help acne, rosacea and atopic eczema
Found in: Complete Serum, Mask Antidote, Eye Crème Solution, Face Crème Originale
Niacinamide
Resveratrol, found in the seed and skin of the red grape (and berries), is our most powerful antioxidant with 95% efficacy at preventing free radical skin damage (vs Vit C’s 37% efficacy rate). It is anti-acne and anti-redness while also lightening skin pigmentation (it is both a direct and indirect tyrosinase inhibitor). It slows ageing by impacting our ‘longevity genes’, boosting our collagen-producing cells and activating sirtuin-1 which repairs DNA and protects telomeres.
Found in: Complete Serum
Resveratrol
Dried yoghurt powder encourages and protects the ‘friendly’ while discouraging the ‘unfriendly’ bacteria on our skin. If the microbiome gets stripped away or unbalanced by harsh cleansers, then our skin becomes sensitive and inflamed. Applying these prebiotics to the skin for just 15 minutes can modify the microbiome towards that of a younger skin while increasing hydration 2.6 times.
Found in: Cleansing Elixir, MultiMasker, Mask Antidote
Prebiotics from yoghurt powder complex
Chlorophyll is a green pigment in plants and algae. It is a powerful antioxidant which cleans and purifies, drawing out toxins, dirt and oil. It also attacks those nasty free radicals which wreak havoc on our skin accelerating ageing while lightening pigmentation. It has been scientifically proven to speed up the healing of wounds making it useful to clear up acne breakouts. 
Found in: Cleansing Elixir, Mask Antidote, MultiMasker, Eye Crème Solution, Face Crème Originale, Complete Serum
Chlorophyll
Malachite extract is derived from grinding the Malachite gemstone into a fine powder. This gem of an ingredient deeply detoxifies the skin while it stimulates one of the body’s own most powerful antioxidant enzymes to fight off free radicals. It is rich in copper which the skin requires to make its keratin and it also stimulates collagen production, enhances elasticity and softens wrinkles. 
Found in: Cleansing Elixir, Mask Antidote, MultiMasker, Face Crème Originale, Complete Serum, Eye Crème Solution
Malachite
Derived from algae, this skin superfood is a powerhouse of protein, Vitamins A, B and E, carotenoids, iron, zinc, copper and gamma-linolenic acid (a powerful anti-inflammatory). It works wonders on dull and congested skin by gently detoxifying and encouraging cell renewal. It is a powerful antioxidant and helps to treat dark under-eye circles and dryness. It is antibacterial and anti-acne.
