True Botanicals is a sustainable skincare brand. The company recently announced the launch of its first wax-free facial moisturizer, dubbed the Chebula Extreme Cream.
The skincare brand challenged itself to develop a moisturizing formula that provides intense and long-lasting hydration while also strengthening the skin's natural barrier. A key component to True Botanicals' formula is the negation of wax as an ingredient present in most moisturizers.
The Chebula Extreme Cream is powered by chebula, a potent cascading antioxidant. This ingredient prevents free radical damage and delivers anti-aging properties. It also fights against rough patches, dryness, skin tone and brightens the skin's complexion for a youthful glow. Moreover, the moisturizer's formula boasts a breathable and lightweight feel on the skin.
