The Miraculous World of Adaptogens in Skincare
Oct
In the fast-paced world we live in, stress is an ever-present factor that takes a toll on various aspects of our health, including our skin. But what if there were botanicals so intelligent that they could adapt to your body’s unique needs and help fight off the damaging effects of stress? Welcome to the miraculous world of adaptogens, the unsung heroes in the realm of skincare. In this blog post, we’ll delve deep into how adaptogens, particularly in Josh Rosebrook products, can revolutionize your skincare routine.
What Are Adaptogens?
Before we leap into the how’s and why’s, it’s essential to understand what adaptogens are. These are unique plants or herbs that support your body’s ability to handle stress. They are non-toxic and produce a balancing effect on physiological functions. For more information on how natural elements can affect skin health, check out our blog post on Unraveling the Magic of Biofermentations for Skin Health.
The Science Behind Adaptogens
Adaptogens operate by modulating our stress response through the two primary systems in the body responsible for controlling a plethora of physiological functions. These are the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal axis (HPA) and the Sympathoadrenal System (SAS). These systems govern our responses to stress and regulate functions like metabolism, immune system, and even our mood.

Found in the Complete Moisture Cleanse, Ashwagandha is renowned for its anti-inflammatory and anti-stress properties. It not only calms your skin but also helps to maintain its hydration, thereby enhancing its elasticity.
Licorice
Licorice, a key ingredient in the Vital Balm Cream, is yet another powerful adaptogen with skin-brightening and anti-inflammatory properties. It’s particularly effective in tackling hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone.
Chaga
Present in the Active Infusion Oil, Chaga is a unique mushroom extract rich in antioxidants. It fights off free radicals and also aids in skin hydration.
Goji Berry
This vibrant red berry is packed with antioxidants and you can reap its benefits from the Advanced Hydration Mask. It not only defends your skin against oxidative stress but also assists in lipid synthesis, which is crucial for maintaining a healthy skin barrier.
Ginkgo Biloba
Ginkgo Biloba, found in Nutrient Day Cream SPF 30, is a true multitasker. It protects, hydrates, and soothes your skin, all while fighting off environmental stressors.

This root is a treasure trove of beneficial saponins and polysaccharides. It is a key ingredient in several Josh Rosebrook products and is particularly effective in reducing Transepidermal Water Loss (TEWL), thereby increasing skin and scalp hydration.
Adaptogenic vs. Adaptogenic Properties: The Need for More Research
While most of the existing studies focus on the oral consumption of adaptogens, there’s a growing interest in the topical application of these magical herbs. Our blog Down with the inflammation, up with the information – Josh Rosebrook delves into how adaptogens can be effective when applied topically.
