Cloudforest Peru collaborated with a collective of farmers in a remote part of the cloud forest to create the Amazon Silk facial serum, which features Super Sacha Inchi, a nut that can only be found in the Amazon cloud forest of Peru. This hero ingredient is said to be the single richest source of Omega 3s anywhere in nature, and it has the potential to greatly influence the cosmeceuticals industry. As cosmetic scientist Juan Carlos Salgado says, "I am thrilled that we have formulated the most unique and effective cream that I have seen in 30 years as a cosmetic scientist."
Through its work with farmers, the brand is devoted to sustainably harvesting the nut, as well as creating socially conscious programs to enrich the community as a whole.
