This lightweight, non-greasy body lotion is YOUTH LAB.'s scientific answer to controlling cortisol levels of body, as it’s infused with an innovative phyto-endorphin complex that reduces the effects of stress onto skin, creating a sense of euphoria. At the same time, it protects the microbiome, boosts collagen production, as well as skin’s hydration levels, locking in moisture like a magnet. Cortisol is one of the key players when it comes to stress, nicknamed the ‘stress hormone’. When we are stressed, cortisol is released as part of our body’s instinctive “fight or flight” response.
