Studies suggest amla may even increase the skin’s natural ability to produce hydrating hyaluronic acid for skin that remains radiant throughout the aging process.

While most hyperpigmentation products can create ‘skin whitening’ effects or hypopigmentation, ashwagandha helps disrupt the crosstalk between pathways that lead to hyperpigmentation for a radiant, even-toned complexion.
