Description
with Kokum Butter, Evening Primrose & Nilotica Shea Butter
Formerly known as “Blue Serenity,” Astera takes its name from the plant family Asteraceae, home to chamomile, tansy, and yarrow — three azulene-rich botanicals at this balm’s core.
A deeply moisturizing, melty balm formulated for sensitive, stressed, dry, and easily reactive skin. Rich in azulene from blue tansy, yarrow, and German chamomile, it helps calm the look of irritation and redness while supporting a smoother, more balanced-looking complexion — without ever congesting pores.
Key Actions
✦ KOKUM BUTTER, an easily absorbed emollient, helps support skin’s suppleness and minimize the look of fine lines.
✦ EVENING PRIMROSE OIL, high in omega-6 fatty acids, helps support skin’s natural glow and comfort.
✦ NILOTICA SHEA BUTTER, deeply moisturizing, helps nourish and protect dry, sensitive-feeling skin.
