For a lifted, more radiant complexion, Heaven’s new Nettle Venom Anti-Ageing Cream is 100% vegan yet still offers potent anti-ageing properties. Containing the ground-breaking, plant-based NETTATOXIN® the nettle sting makes the skin tingle before your own serotonin gets to work to heal blemishes and redness. With regular use, the skin continues this healing action, smoothing lines as it does so.
 
How it Works
The venom of the nettle causes a similar reaction to that of bees when they sting – the skin goes into rapid repair on first contact. The nettle sting makes the skin tingle before your own serotonin gets to work to heal blemishes and redness leaving you with a lifted, more radiant complexion. With regular use, the skin continues this healing action, smoothing lines and soothing as it does so. The power comes from the skin’s own rebuilding system to tighten, firm and renew.
 
Who is it for
SO HOW DOES IT WORK? “It works because the venom of the nettle causes a reaction similar to that of bees when they sting – the skin goes into rapid repair on first contact. This helps to heal blemishes and redness leaving you with a lifted, more radiant complexion.” The nettle sting contains formic acid as well as histamine and it is this combination that causes the initial reaction when you are stung. Skin goes into rapid repair on first contact; your own receptors contain proteins – called interferons – that start to reinforce from the inside out while serotonin gets to work to combat swelling and heal, boosting collagen and elastin.
 
“Traditionally, vegan ingredients haven’t made very effective anti-ageing creams but with my patented NETTATOXIN® the power comes from the skin’s own rebuilding system to tighten and renew. And rather than using Manuka honey, as I have done in some of my previous bestsellers, I have blended the nettles with vegan-friendly maple syrup which works in tandem to help firm the skin and relax fine lines.”
