I am always on the hunt for the very best skin care products to protect and nourish my skin. So it is with such excitement that I share my latest skin care discovery with you. Mad Hippie offers an extensive range of natural, safe skin care products to protect the skin from the harmful effects of environmental factors.

ABOUT MAD HIPPIE
{Adapted from the Mad Hippie Website}
Here at Mad Hippie we take skin care seriously, but we also take corporate responsibility seriously.
We know and appreciate the faith a customer puts into a company when buying their line, and that’s why we strive to always make the safest, most effective products possible. Unfortunately, the beauty care industry is riddled with companies that are strictly profit-minded and willing to fill their products with anything if it is cheap, regardless of the health consequences to the consumer. Call us hippies, but we just don’t feel that’s right.
Here at Mad Hippie we wouldn’t put anything into our skin care products that we wouldn’t feel comfortable putting on to our own skin. Ever.
It can’t stop there though. We also take our responsibility to the planet seriously and that’s why we are always working to further reduce our carbon footprint and impact on the environment. From recently switching to some of the only BPA-free, fully recyclable airless pumps on the market, to printing entirely with soy inks, to running our entire facility off of alternative energy, Mad Hippie is dedicated to the preservation of the environment.
So, give our natural skin care products a try and feel good knowing you are taking a step towards healthier, more beautiful skin, while we work together towards a healthier, more beautiful planet.

I received a full size bottle of Mad Hippie Face Cream which is an antioxidant rich peptide face cream. Formulated with 12 actives, including peptides, acai, argan oil and resveratrol, this natural revitalizing face cream reduces the appearance of wrinkles and creates smooth, healthy skin. By leaving out harmful chemicals, parabens, synthetic color and fragrance, Mad Hippie helps skin achieve true harmony.

DESCRIPTION:
Packed to the brim with peptides and actives, our face cream is formulated to kick-start collagen production while Mother Nature’s best antioxidants neutralize aging free radicals.
Awarded Best Facial Moisturizer in Natural Solutions Magazine’s Beauty with a Conscience Awards
KEY INGREDIENTS:
Matrixyl 3000 – Naturally stimulates body’s production of collagen and elastin – reducing wrinkles and giving skin a lifting effect. Matrixyl 3000 increases skin elasticity and tone, and has been shown to reduce deep wrinkle surface area by 45%, wrinkle density by 37% and skin roughness by 14%.
Syn-Tacks - Dual peptide complex that interacts with the most relevant protein structures at the dermal-epidermal juncture to increase structural and functional integrity of the skin. By stimulating production of Laminin V, Collagen type IV, VII and XVII as well as Intergrin, Syn-Tacks tones and firms the skin, dramatically reducing the appearance of wrinkles while enhancing cellular communication.
Coenzyme Q10 - Reduces fine lines and wrinkles by energizing cells and aiding in skin’s natural ability to produce collagen, elastin and other crucial molecules. Also inhibits free radical and sun damage.
Resveratrol - Super potent antioxidant from wine and grapes shown to reduce the effects of aging and UV damage.
Green Tea - Protects against free radical damage while increasing skin’s resilience through its anti inflammatory and anti carcinogenic properties.
Vitamin B3 - Energizes cells while aiding in metabolism of glucose and synthesis of lipids. Has strong antioxidant and anti-carcinogenic qualities and has been shown to reduce the harmful effects of ultra violet rays, help even skin tone and enhance collagen production.
Polyphenols - Powerful antioxidant that has been shown to be 50x more effective at combating free radicals than Vitamin C (Journal of Medicinal Food).
Vitamin E - Contains powerful anti aging and anti carcinogenic properties. Reduces fine lines and wrinkles while it heals and protects skin from UV and free radical damage.
Aloe Vera - Skin protectant with natural healing qualities. Increases the availability of oxygen to the skin and hence aids in the synthesis and resilience of skin tissue.
Coconut Oil - Moisturizes and soothes skin while creating a lipid barrier that fends off skin damage. Combats wrinkles and discoloration while promoting the natural healing of the skin.
Argan Oil - Natural healing agent from Northern Africa. High source of vitamin E, essential fatty acids and phytosterols. Attributed with naturally healing scar tissue, moisturizing the skin and reducing the appearance of wrinkles.
Grape Seed Extract - One of nature’s most potent antioxidants, shown to inhibit UV generated skin damage and protect skin from free radicals.
Acai Berry - Super antioxidant from Brazil that increases levels of hydroxyproline, a vital amino acid required for the synthesis of collagen and elastin.
Pomegranate - Potent antioxidant that is a high source of ellagic acid, a polyphenol that has been shown to inhibit the growth of skin cancer. Believed to also mediate the effects of ultraviolet rays and skin discoloration.
MY THOUGHTS:
I was not planning to list every super star ingredient contained in this Mad Hippie Face Cream, but as I learned more and more about each one and the benefits of them all, I felt compelled to point them all out to you. I don't think I have ever used a face cream before that has so many truly superior ingredients in it until now, until this outstanding face cream from Mad Hippie. I have only been using it for a week now, but already I can say I think it is extraordinary! It is genuine flower power, natural antioxidants and active essentials that work hand in hand to liberate the skin from signs of aging. All the ingredients work together to achieve true harmony and my skin is loving the TLC treatment!
From the moment I pumped a dollop of this rich luxurious face cream on my skin, it glides like silk onto the skin and my skin glows with luminous happiness. You can smell the natural ingredients, it is such a blissful ritual, and I feel a sense of peace of mind knowing that this product is safe and pure for my skin. The cream is rich and robust, very hydrating, but not overly so. It is definitely great for my dry skin, but it can work with all skin types. It is gentle and calming, and you can feel it being absorbed into your skin, slowly feeding it with the nutrients it longs for.
My skin is feeling rejuvenated and I can tell that already that collagen production is being enhanced by the peptides. I cannot give this product anything but my highest praise and recommendation.
I am so thrilled to be able to kick start this winter season with a face cream that is going to work magic to keep my skin radiant and healthy throughout the bitter cold winter months.
