  • Ceramides

    < 1%

    Ceramides are lipids that make up 50% of your skin's natural barrier. Daily life takes a toll on our ceramides. Replenishing them daily helps your skin retain moisture, and protects against environmental irritants.

     

    ✧ Restores the skin's moisture barrier
    ✧ Promotes firmer, smoother skin

    ✧ Reduces skin sensitivity

     

    The Research:

    "A single topical application of... Ceramide cream... resulted in a significant increase in skin hydration"

  • Granactive Retinoid

    2%

    This ester of all-trans retinoic acid is the most advanced form of vitamin A available over the counter. It provides all of the benefits of retinol with none of the irritation, so it's suitable for daily use.

     

    ✧ Promotes collagen production

    ✧ Treats acne and clears pores

    ✧ Brightens skintone

    ✧ Reduces hyperpigmentation

    ✧ Promotes hair growth when used on the scalp

     

    The Research:

    "Amongst various anti-aging agents, retinoids are the most promising agents that are available for the treatment of aging."

Exceeded expectations

I’ve use a few different oils in my minimal skin care routine that I’ve enjoyed, and have found benefits from. I find them rejuvenating to the skin without adding a ton of ingredients to my face.

But, I’m at an age where I’ve been researching adding a more comprehensive oil or skin cream to my nightly regimen.

In comes Grüner! It has all the simple ingredients I’ve been interested in incorporating, and is so silky when applied. It absorbs into the skin nicely, aka: my pillow thanks you!

The real unexpected surprise was the next morning after my first use. I woke up with a noticeably softer texture and more even complexion to my skin.

A little goes a long way. Highly recommend this product!

One and done

A beautiful, effective, all in one product for the individual who doesn't have the attention span for a 12 step evening routine (i.e. me)! I've been using Grüner for about two months and have noticed a huge improvement in my skin texture and moisture balance. It feels super luxurious going on and has quickly become a holy grail product in my bathroom that I look forward to using nightly. Can't recommend enough!

Amazing product

When I first opened the package I loved the look of the product. Next I found the container easy to open and apply.

When I massaged the oil on my face it felt wonderful. My skin was full of moisture and felt soft. In the morning my skin still felt great.
After using my ritual oil for a few weeks and working on my evening ritual my skin looks and feels amazing.

I highly recommend this product and recommend following the useful lifestyle suggestions on the web site.
