Squalane
Why Squalane Is a Game-Changer in Coaya Products
Squalane is one of the most effective and versatile ingredients in skincare, and here’s why it’s a standout in co:aya formulations:
Mimics Your Skin's Natural Oils
Squalane is a lightweight, fast-absorbing ingredient that mirrors your skin's natural sebum, making it highly compatible and non-comedogenic.
Reinforces the Skin Barrier
Derived from plants, squalane helps restore and strengthen the skin's lipid barrier, preventing moisture loss while also offering protection against environmental stressors.
Suitable for All Skin Types
Whether you have oily, acne-prone, dry, or sensitive skin, squalane works without clogging pores, making it a universal solution.
Enhanced Penetration
Pairing squalane-based products with active serums like the Hydrating Serum boosts ingredient absorption, ensuring maximum efficacy without irritation.
Why You’ll Love It
Squalane is not only a protective shield but also a hydrator that nourishes your skin, leaving it soft, smooth, and balanced.
Chamomile Extract
Why Coaya Chooses Chamomile for Sensitive Skin
Chamomile is more than just a soothing herb—it’s a powerhouse ingredient for anyone with sensitive or reactive skin. Here’s why we chose chamomile for our formulas:
Anti-Inflammatory Properties
Chamomile contains bisabolol, a natural compound that calms irritation and reduces redness.
Antioxidant-Rich
Chamomile is loaded with antioxidants that neutralize free radicals, helping to prevent premature aging and protect against environmental damage.
Ideal for Sensitive Skin
Whether you’re battling redness, irritation, or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, chamomile helps calm and restore balance. Its gentle yet effective nature makes it suitable for daily use in your skincare routine.
Why You’ll Love It
Chamomile helps soothe and heal your skin, transforming how it feels and looks, leaving you with a calm, clear complexion.
Bakuchiol
Why Co:aya Chooses Bakuchiol Over Retinol
When it comes to anti-aging skincare, retinol has long been celebrated as the gold standard. However, at co:aya, we’ve chosen a different path—one that prioritizes results without compromise. Enter bakuchiol, a plant-based powerhouse that delivers all the benefits of retinol with none of the drawbacks. Here’s why bakuchiol is a key ingredient in our approach to effective, gentle skincare.
