Adaptogens

Adaptogens: natural allies for balanced, radiant skin

In today’s world, where stress and environmental aggressions are constant, adaptogenic plants have become precious allies. Used for centuries in medicinal traditions, they are now recognized for helping the body—and the skin—adapt to imbalances. At Absolution, we incorporate these botanical treasures into our formulas to provide natural, holistic, and effective skin support.

What is an adaptogen?
An adaptogen is a plant or mushroom that helps the body restore balance in response to various stressors—physical, emotional, or environmental. Unlike conventional actives that target a single issue, adaptogens respond to the skin’s needs in the moment, acting as natural regulators. For the skin, this means enhanced resilience, reduced signs of fatigue, and strengthened protection against premature aging.

Benefits of adaptogens for the skin
Adaptogens work on multiple levels: they strengthen the skin’s defenses, promote hydration, and soothe oxidative stress responses. The result: skin that feels comfortable, supple, and radiant. By supporting overall balance, adaptogens also improve skin quality, which reflects our internal state.

Adaptogens at the heart of Absolution skincare
Staying true to our holistic approach, we’ve selected adaptogenic extracts for key products. These actives work in synergy with our other bio ingredients to create effective, gentle, and sensorial skincare:

• Chaga in La Crème Beau Jour: the world’s most antioxidant-rich mushroom, protecting skin cells from oxidative stress caused by UV and daily life.

• Astragalus in Le Masque Anti-Soif Hydratant: stimulates collagen and elastin synthesis, enhancing skin elasticity and tone.

• Centella Asiatica in Mats et Sorbets lipsticks and La Crème Beau Jour: antioxidant and powerful cell regenerator, perfect for problem-prone skin.
