Wild Yam, Calendula, Rose & Frankincense · Botanical Renewal Cream
Viriditas takes its name from the Latin idea of greenness and flourishing life. Rooted in the spirit of traditional botanical craftsmanship, it is a richly nourishing, carefully preserved skin cream made for slow, uncomplicated face and body care.
A botanical blend of Wild Yam, Chaste Tree Berry, Red Clover, Calendula, Rose and Frankincense is incorporated into a gently emollient cream. Its light botanical aroma comes from the ingredients themselves without added fragrance oils.
