Meet the Ingredient

Jasmine, known in Thailand as mali (pronounced mah-lee with a rising tone in the second syllable), is cherished for its small white blossoms and beautifully rich floral aroma. Although delicate in appearance, the flower contains protective plant compounds that make it a thoughtful addition to gentle body care.

Across our Kindness Wash, Kindness Lotion and Hair Conditioner, jasmine helps dry hair and skin feel soft, comfortable and cared for. Its soothing floral character blends with ylang ylang and tangerine to turn daily cleansing and moisturising into a calming ritual for both the skin and senses.

Verified by Modern Science

Jasmine flowers contain natural antioxidant and antimicrobial properties which help protect the skin from damage that contributes to dryness, dullness and early signs of ageing, while also helping keep the skin feeling clean and comfortable.

Jasmine also supports in decreasing the breakdown of collagen. As collagen helps keep the skin firm and smooth, jasmine plays a role in supporting softer, smoother and more youthful skin.

Did You Know?

Jasmine is woven into many parts of Thai cultural life. Its small white buds are carefully strung into phuang malai, traditional floral garlands presented as offerings or given as symbols of respect and affection. Jasmine is also used to perfume floral water for Thai desserts and cooling dishes such as khao chae.

Its fragrance has also made jasmine a natural fit for bathing and body care rituals. In our Kindness Wash and Lotion, jasmine flower extract brings a soft floral character to formulas created to gently cleanse, nourish and comfort dry or sensitive skin.
