We’re so excited to be spotlighting and announcing our latest addition to our skincare line, the balancing and clarifying Tomate Creme corrective moisturizer. This lightweight daily moisturizer will hydrate your skin and balance your pH to restore radiance. Exceptionally clarifying, Tomate Creme is a powerhouse with a high concentration of tomato lycopene extract, Vitamin C, and herbal infusions that naturally reduce redness and work to promote a healthy microbiota in the skin.

Having had a deep personal connection with helping clients clear their acne and gain confidence, Jane has continued to work to develop products that specifically help treat acne and congested skin. After almost 40 years in the business, she has a keen understanding of what is important to clients. Some of the top concerns clients have expressed are the desire to reduce redness and eliminate their breakouts once and for all. We are proud to say our Tomate Creme is a must-have for our clients prone to experiencing redness, inflammation, congestion, and/or surface dryness.

You might be wondering what inspired a creme with a tomato base? During Jane’s early years in the skincare industry, she had the opportunity to study in some of the industry's most prestigious countries throughout Europe. Throughout this time she learned from industry experts and one specific lesson and story has stuck with her through her years in business.

Jane’s mentor always spoke about her time in Poland. She remarked on how incredible the skin was of the women tending to the farmlands. After observing these women, she noticed they were rubbing tomatoes on their skin and learned it was to help protect and heal any sun damage from their extended time outdoors. This is what sparked Jane’s interest in the benefits of using tomatoes, or rather, tomato lycopene on the skin. After many years of research and development, Jane’s very own Tomate Creme was born.

Tomato Lycopene Extract

Lycopene is a powerful antioxidant, improves skin texture, reduces the appearance of wrinkles, and reduces redness. This ingredient is powerful on skins that have experienced UV damage.

Sunflower Oil

Sunflower oil is used to soothe irritated and inflamed skin, promote moisture retention, and defend against external damage. It is high in linoleic acid which is great for dry, irritated, and inflamed skin and is well tolerated by most skin types.

Jojoba Oil

Jojoba oil is chemically similar to our skin’s own sebum, making it well tolerated by almost all skin types. It absorbs quickly and provides lasting moisture, while creating a protective barrier on the skin. Jojoba can soothe inflammation, itching, dryness, and redness that occur from many different skin conditions. Jojoba is incredibly gentle on sensitive and inflamed skin.

Hemp Oil

Hemp seed oil reduces inflammation and soothes skin ailments such as abrasions, burns, eczema, and psoriasis. It also helps your skin retain moisture and improves circulation.

Fractionated Coconut Oil

Fractionated coconut oil is non-clogging, soothing, and helps boost circulation. It is absorbed quickly into the skin, and won’t leave a greasy feeling behind. It is well suited to most skin types and makes an excellent carrier oil.

Calendula Infused Oil

Calendula-infused oil helps brighten skin, minimizing the appearance of pores and scars, and acne. This is especially great on acne-prone skin types.

Yellow Turmeric

Due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, yellow turmeric is excellent on irritated, acne-prone, and stressed skin. Yellow turmeric also aids in cleansing the skin and pores.

HOW TO USE


While being light in texture, Tomate Creme is so rich in ingredients that a small amount goes a long way. Once you have washed your face and applied your serum and face oil, gently press a small amount of Tomate Creme all over your face. Repeat morning and night.

Remember, keeping moisture in your skin is something that is important year-round.
