Super serums combine the best of nature and science for glowing, healthy skin

Snowberry cuts through the natural skincare hype with innovative ingredients that deliver on reducing wrinkles and boosting your glow

When it comes to selecting skincare, many products fall into one of two categories. Beautiful sensorial products made with clean, natural, plant-based ingredients, or those that contain scientifically-proven active ingredients that are known to bring a real improvement to the condition and appearance of your skin.

Snowberry, though, has forged a space largely its own with products that deliver on both accounts. You get desirable natural ingredients, as well as proof you’re not just throwing money down the drain. 

The respected Kiwi skincare brand is now well-known for its commitment to bringing the best of nature and science together to encourage healthy and resilient skin that resists premature signs of ageing. Research by Snowberry scientist Dr Travis Badenhorst, in conjunction with Auckland University’s School of Pharmacy around peptides and how they are delivered and absorbed to improve skin, has been widely reported on. The company also has its act together environmentally, leading the way with robust carbon neutral and sustainability policies. 

Super serums with astounding proven results

Curious about where to start? All skin types will gain a smoothing, hydrating, glowing boost from the fantastic New Radiance Face Serum. The lightweight, quick-to-sink-in serum boasts both local Kanuka honey extract and hyaluronic acid as well as anti-aging peptide powerhouseCuPEP™ Copper Tripeptide complex. The serum has been proven by independent pharmaceutical level trials including an 8-week Gold Standard Clinical trial to effectively firm skin and reduce the appearance of lines by an average of 25.6%. That impressive result was significant enough to be published in The Journal of Anti-Aging Science and Snowberry was invited to present the results at the 23rd World Congress of Dermatology. For the uninitiated, that’s like the Olympics for skincare!

Another hero? The multi-functional, Youth Renewing Face Serum. It contains Snowberry’s trademarked eProlex™ peptide complex with the same world-first delivery system as Cu-Pep™, but boosted with two additional peptides. The effective mix is designed to target and work on different areas of the skin helping improve it’s protective barrier function, firming and reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles.

Of course it’s loaded with natural goodness too, like Harakeke seed oil, rich in essential fatty acids Omegas 3 and 6 to condition the skin and Totarol, an NZ-developed, super antioxidant, stronger even than Vitamin E, that takes down free radicals linked to skin ageing. There’s also a host of vitamins being raved about everywhere in skin care right now, including potent and rejuvenating Niacinamide (Vitamin B3), Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C), and Tocopherol (Vitamin E). Youth Renewing Face Serum also received impressive results in a 8 week Gold Standard Clinical trial including 4.5 times less wrinkle volume compared with the control treatment.

Snowberry Gardens north of Auckland, where key ingredients for Snowberry’s skincare are cultivated. 

Considered natural ingredients

Each of Snowberry’s considerable selection of skincare products are designed and formulated to help to counter one or more of the six enemies of radiant skin: free-radical damage, metalloproteinase activity, glycation, dehydration, inflammation and discolouration.

They also contain hand-picked botanicals that help fight these challenges, purpose-grown at the brand’s dedicated 22-hectare Snowberry Gardens in Wellsford, north of Auckland.

The land sustains more than 8,000 native New Zealand rainforest plants including the Puka tree, cultivated to produce emollients and antioxidants and Harakeke (NZ flax) that provides powerful, natural moisturising and hydrating properties.

Snowberry Gardens is a key part of the brand’s bio-discovery programme, in which it has committed to developing new-to-the-world, anti-ageing skincare bio-actives from New Zealand. 

Environmental credentials

The serums are just two reasons to love Snowberry, and there are plenty more products to effectively cleanse, nourish and treat skin besides. But if you needed any more convincing, how about the fact it’s the first New Zealand skin care company to achieve carboNZeroCert™ certification for each of its products? A commitment to preserving the natural beauty of New Zealand and leaving the world a better place confirms Snowberry as the perfect choice for both the considered consumer, and the beauty addict!
