Sundrops ingredients explained: 

  1. Water (Aqua): The base ingredient providing a liquid medium for other ingredients to dissolve and mix.

  2. 24k Gold: Often used for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects on the skin as well as 

  • Antioxidant Properties: Gold is believed to have antioxidant properties, which can help protect the skin from oxidative stress caused by environmental factors like pollution and UV radiation. This can contribute to overall skin health and a more youthful appearance.
  • Anti-Inflammatory: Gold nanoparticles are thought to possess anti-inflammatory properties, which can help soothe and calm irritated skin. This is especially beneficial for individuals with sensitive or redness-prone skin.
  • Collagen Stimulation: Some studies suggest that gold nanoparticles might stimulate the production of collagen, a protein that plays a crucial role in maintaining skin elasticity and firmness. Increased collagen production can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Improved Blood Circulation: Gold has been associated with improved blood circulation when applied topically. Better circulation can result in a healthier complexion and improved delivery of nutrients to the skin.
  • Enhanced Penetration: Gold nanoparticles are tiny and can potentially aid in the penetration of other active ingredients deeper into the skin, increasing the effectiveness of the entire formulation.
  • Glow and Radiance: Gold-infused products are often associated with imparting a radiant and luminous glow to the skin, contributing to a more youthful and healthy appearance.
  • Luxurious Experience: The inclusion of 24k gold in skincare products can add a touch of luxury and indulgence to the skincare routine, enhancing the overall user experience.
