THE MAGIC INGREDIENTS

The ingredients in Charlotte’s Magic Cream include the unique BioNymph Peptide Complex. This fabulous ingredient may help to stimulate collagen and fight free radicals and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

You can also benefit from the hydration-boosting ingredient, hyaluronic acid, which helps to seal in moisture to your complexion, creating the appearance of dewy skin. This combined with rose hip and camellia oils and anti-oxidant Vitamin E can help to create a beautiful complexion and reduce the appearance of fine lines.

Topping off this fabulous list of ingredients is Vitamin C, a wonder ingredient that works as an antioxidant as well as anti-ageing properties, perfect for problem skin.
