The most nutritious vegetable on the planet, engineered for your skin.

Watercress

One of nature's nutritional powerhouses

Watercress ranked highest in a peer-reviewed nutrient-density study of powerhouse fruits and vegetables. Its distinctive natural compounds also inspired scientific investigation into ammonia formation, inflammation and skin protection.

Watercress contains naturally occurring compounds that led our scientists to investigate its potential to inhibit bacterial enzymes involved in ammonia formation.

Ammonia can irritate the skin when left in prolonged contact with it and can weaken its protective barrier.
