Tazman Pepper™ Berry, derived from the wild Tasmanian Pepper (a deep purple-black berry native to the mountainous regions of Australia), is a powerful botanical active known for calming and protecting reactive skin. This resilient plant thrives in harsh, wind-swept environments, developing potent protective compounds that translate beautifully to skincare.

Rich in Polygodial, a natural anti-inflammatory compound, Tazman Pepper™ helps reduce vasodilation (widening of blood vessels) and edema (swelling), making it exceptionally effective for soothing irritation and redness. It also boasts anti-allergenic and antimicrobial properties, relieving allergy-prone or sensitized skin, and is particularly helpful during high-allergy seasons like spring. Additionally, it contains anthocyanins, powerful antioxidants that offer three times the antioxidant protection of blueberries (as measured by TEAC), shielding skin from free radical damage and oxidative stress. Another standout compound is rutin, an anti-inflammatory bioflavonoid that strengthens capillaries and may help reduce the appearance of dark circles and visible redness.

Proven Results from Clinical Testing

In in vivo testing, a 2% concentration of Tazman Pepper™ significantly reduced skin redness caused by UV exposure after a single application. Another clinical study involving 20 volunteers with sensitive, reactive skin showed impressive results:

79% reduction in itching sensations within just 5 minutes

58% reduction in burning sensations, also within 5 minutes

This rapid response is attributed to Tazman Pepper™’s ability to inhibit the release of IL-8, a key pro-inflammatory cytokine. This effectively interrupts the inflammatory cascade and brings immediate comfort to compromised skin.
