our Ingredients
Rooted in Nature. Backed by Science
That's why most women decide to clean up their routines when planning a family, are pregnant, or simply prioritizing hormonal wellness.
But the truth is: “Clean” doesn’t always mean safe.
Some natural ingredients still pose risks. Others are processed with preservatives or hidden toxins that compromise safety. Even terms like "dermatologist-reviewed," "green," or "clinically-tested" can mask harmful ingredients.
We didn’t like that risk —so we removed it.
Every Matrescence product is reviewed for reproductive and developmental safety, and designed to support hormonal skin through every stage.
We don’t just avoid the bad — we obsess over the best.
Hormonal skin has unique needs—we meet them with high-performance botanicals that do more than soothe. From burdock root to mushroom extract, our ingredients are selected for their ability to calm inflammation, fade discoloration, support elasticity, and restore radiance.
Explore our complexes and botanical actives below.
