In an age where new trends and fads often come and go, modern day consumers are turning to beauty practices from the past, where ancient rituals, rich in beauty wisdom and dating back millennia are gaining in popularity.
Consumers are looking for authenticity and sustainability, which is right up Infinity’s street 😊 So let’s step back in time and honour those cultural traditions…
From Ayurvedic Medicine...
Ancient Stress Buster
Ayuredi® is a holy basil extract rich in polyphenols that protect the skin against daily stresses (environmental as well as psychological) to restore skin balance.
Used for centuries for its calming and anti-redness properties, Centella Asiatica Hydroglycerin Extract provides multiple benefits for cosmetics. With firming, regenerating, restructuring, anti-cellulite, and hair stimulating properties - to name a few!
Ashwagandha is an adaptogen plant that has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for more than 5,000 years. We offer BiotyFerment™ ASHWA to fight against free radicals in order to protect skin from oxidative stress-induced damage.
Dosha Inspired Formulations
Ayurveda is the oldest holistic medicine in the world, based on the mind-body connection.
The three Doshas represent our physical processes, personality and emotional traits – which have inspired these formulations:
- Vāta’s Caress – for dry skin
- Pitta’s Spark – for sensitive skin
- Kapha’s Confidence - for oily skin
Inspiration from the East
- Astragalus, an adaptogen plant used for more than 2,000 years is used in BiotyFerment™ ASTRA. It boosts cell metabolism, increases hyaluronic acid synthesis, stimulates collagen production and provides an anti-fatigue effect.
- Sweetone® Bio is a concentrate of active molecules extracted from Schisandra sphenentera berries to reduce redness by controlling inflammation.
- The Tremella fuciformis, also known as the “snow mushroom” is used in the 100% natural HYDRA-T. This low molecular weight hyaluronic acid, penetrates deeply into the skin for moisturisation and anti-ageing effects.
Protects Skin (& Orangatans!)
Organic Illipe Butter was traditionally used by locals in the Borneo rainforest to moisturise skin, as well as heal sores and sunburns.
It nourishes and protects the skin, with sustainable sourcing that protects against deforestation
Food for Thought...
Hair Food
Food ingredients are increasingly used in cosmetics, such as Amaranth Oil.
This ancient grain used by the Aztecs as a food staple, is now used in hair care for volume, shine and anti-damage.
Turmeric Oily Macerate is rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory components making it ideal for a range dermatological conditions. Why not try it in a face mask?
Mushrooms and β-glucan are also old favourites. We offer Plerasan® Re-balance that balances the defence system of sensitive skin whilst stimulating the skin repair process.
Cumin Seed Oil boasts anti-microbial, anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory properties. In aromatherapy it is used to aid muscles and joints, especially the accumulation of fluids and toxins, and to help poor circulation.
Tea Time
First used in skincare during the Chinese Ming Dynasty, black and green tea offers benefits beyond your morning cuppa.
Use for anti-ageing, dark circles/ bags, microcirculation and purifying. We offer:
Grains for Growth
Inspired by the traditional kefir beverage, BiotyFerment™ MATÉ uses unique kefir grains made of symbiotic microorganisms.
It protects hair from oxidative stress, maintaining healthy hair roots for optimal growth and enhanced hair glossiness.
Amazonian Secrets
Ancient beauty secrets from the Amazon include:
- Kahai™ Oil - 100% natural anti-ageing oil rich in Vitamins E, F and natural Retinol.
- Copaiba oil - used by natives of the Amazon to relieve pain, stress or as an antimicrobial solution.
- Macaline® - helps restore a slender silhouette by boosting fat shredding and promoting drainage.
From More Exotic Shores...
Trending from Tahiti
Used for over 2000 years by the Polynesian people, Noni juice is said to have immunostimulatory, analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. Protecting the body from various diseases whilst delaying ageing.
In cosmetic applications it is known for its vitalising, energising, and stimulating properties.

Bottled meditation, IBR-Chill™ All Natural is sourced from the organic pink rock-rose and blocks stress induced inflammation.
Tōtara Power
