Good Skin Day
Calming Skin Support
Support your skin's health, hydration, and vitality with our plant-based capsules filled with antioxidants and liver-supporting ingredients studied to help soothe symptoms of common skin conditions like rosacea, psoriasis, and eczema.
Benefits
Good Skin Day helps you have a healthy response to skin inflammation,† so you have hydrated, elastic skin† with a bright, even tone.†
Dry skin, redness, rashes, and discoloration can all be reactions to improperly digested foods, stressful situations, sunlight, or exposure to pollution. Our blend of plant-based, organic ingredients is designed to help you effectively process these stressors† to support a healthy, youthful glow.†
How to Use
Take two capsules daily at any time of day, with or without food. Pick a time that works for you, and aim for consistency. (We like to keep Good Skin Day in the bathroom to take with our morning skincare routine.)
Our capsule-swallowing trick: Put one or two capsules in your mouth, drink water, and tilt your head forward before swallowing. The capsules float to the back of your throat and should be easier to swallow.
Key Ingredients
Organic Turmeric Extract (Curcuma Longa) (Rhizomes): Turmeric is a beautiful golden spice that's been used medicinally for treating skin issues in India for over 4,000 years. Curcumin, the main active ingredient in turmeric, has been extensively studied for its potential to reduce oxidative stress and support a healthy inflammatory response. Through its relationship to NK-kB, curcumin may support skin health and improve wound healing. It has also been studied for its potential to relieve symptoms of psoriasis.
Organic Amla (Phyllanthus emblica) Fruit Powder: Amla is a sour fruit that's used medicinally in Ayurveda for its benefits to the skin, digestive system, and immune system. Amla is rich in polyphenols and tannins, compounds with antioxidant properties. Studies suggest that amla may support skin health by increasing pro-collagen content and decreasing the expression of matrix metalloproteinases, enzymes that degrade the structural integrity of the skin. Amla may also help reduce the photo-aging impacts of UVB light.
Organic Milk Thistle (Silybum marianum) (Seed) Extract: Milk thistle is a plant that's been used medicinally throughout the Mediterranean since ancient Greek times. Milk thistle seed extract contains silymarin, a mixture of flavonoids and polyphenols that have been researched for their potential antioxidant and liver-protective qualities. Milk thistle extract may support skin health by reducing the activity of collagenase (an enzyme that breaks down collagen) and elastase (an enzyme which breaks down elastin). It's also been researched for its potential to protect skin cells from depleting antioxidants like glutathione in response to UVA light exposure.
Organic Goji Berry (Lysium Barbarum) (Fruit): Goji berry is a fruit that's used in Traditional Chinese Medicine to support liver health. Science is confirming that many of the benefits of goji berry may be due to its high levels of flavanols, polysaccharides, and carotenoids like zeaxanthin and beta-carotene. Supplementing with zeaxanthin may be associated with improved skin hydration and reduced appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Research suggests that taking beta-carotene may be associated with reduced wrinkles and a more healthy response to UV light. Goji is being studied for its antioxidant benefits and potential to protect against cell damage related to UV exposure.
Organic Blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium) (Fruit Juice) Powder: Blueberries get their beautiful blue hue from anthocyanins, antioxidant molecules that may have anti-inflammatory effects mediated through the NF-kB pathway. Blueberries are also high in Vitamins C and K, as well as antioxidant carotenoids like beta-carotene and zeaxanthin. Together, these antioxidants can support a healthy inflammatory response throughout the body, including the skin.
Organic Cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon) (Fruit): Wonderful, tart cranberries are particularly rich in Vitamin C and various polyphenols, including proanthocyanins, terpenes, and more. These compounds act as antioxidants in the body (and the skin!) and may be why one study found that drinking cranberry juice was associated with lower levels of oxidated LDL (bad) cholesterol. These antioxidants promote a healthy inflammatory response, inside and out!
Organic Mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana L.) (Whole): Mangosteen is a purple fruit traditionally grown in Southeast Asia. The fruit (and, particularly, its skin) is rich in antioxidant compounds called xanthones. Xanthones in mangosteen may act as an anti-inflammatory through the inhibitory effects on nitric oxide and prostaglandin E2 release in the body. Mangosteen has been researched for its potential to improve skin elasticity and moisture, potentially through reducing the presence of advanced glycation endproducts, a marker of cellular inflammation.
Organic Grape (Vitis vinifera L.) Seed Extract: Grape seeds are full of proanthocyanidins, potent antioxidant molecules. Studies have shown that grape seed extract may act as a stronger antioxidant than Vitamins C and E. Research suggests that the anti-inflammatory action of grape seed extract may be mediated through a reduction in NF-kB, which governs the body's inflammatory response. One study showed that grape seed extract may reduce oxidative damage in the DNA of skin cells exposed to UVB.
Organic Elderberry (Sambucus nigra) (Fruit): Elderberries contain a mixture of anthocyanins and vitamins that may support a healthy inflammatory response. Research has shown that anthocyanins, molecules that help give elderberry its purple color, are highly bioavailable from elderberries and may be able to prevent oxidative damage in endothelial (skin-type) cells.
Vegan Capsule (Pullulan): Ora's vegan capsules are made from pullulan, which is a plant-based polysaccharide derived from the Aureobasidium pullulans fungi. Pullulan is biodegradable and made without any other additives or fillers. Compared to animal-based capsules, pullulan resists oxygen very effectively, which means the the powder inside is kept fresher for longer.
