REPLY Skincare’s Extract of Gotu Kola

Members and Customers of AIM know that the key ingredient in REPLY Oil to Foam Cleanser, Essence/Toner and Day & Night Cream is barley seed extract, the nutritional core that grows to deliver BarleyLife’s juice powder of barley leaves. The other botanical ingredient present in all three REPLY formulations is gotu kola extract.

As a Member or Customer, you may be familiar with gotu kola extract from taking the U.S. formulation of Herbal Release. Gotu kola (Centella asiatica) is an herb that has been traditionally taken to ease stomach ailments, providing antioxidant and inflammation-fighting properties.
As a topical botanical in REPLY skincare, gotu kola extract has soothing and inflammatory-fighting properties that can reduce redness and irritation as well as help improve some skin conditions. Moreover, this botanical delivers many additional benefits that promote healthy, vibrant skin.

Gotu kola extract contains natural, plant compounds that include aspartic acid, asiaticoside and madecassoside, all of which help repair skin and support its regeneration. The skin repair and regeneration promoted by these compounds stimulates collagen production and improves skin elasticity.

Furthermore, asiaticoside and madecassoside are triterpenoid saponins that function as antioxidants to reduce oxidative stress and the damage that causes premature aging of skin.

As you would expect, skincare that works should contain a variety of beneficial ingredients. This is the case with the individual formulations for REPLY Oil to Foam Cleanser, Essence/Toner and Day & Night Cream. Nevertheless, it’s the skincare benefits of gotu kola extract that make it a go-to ingredient that works for all three REPLY skincare products.

  1. Hello AIM,

    Not sure if you got my reply, but here it is. I have used the REPLY products now for 2 weeks, twice a day, morning and night, and love them all! I can tell that my dark, age spots are lightening, my skin is definitely toned and smoother, and feels and looks so healthy! I love the skin I am in. Thank you AIM for REPLY Nutrition that works, from the outside in. Jan Baxter, AIM Director Sent from my iPad

  2. While I was happy with my current cleaning regimen, I agreed to try the REPLY products after hearing about their natural properties. After a month of daily use, I’m totally sold on both the cleanser and toner.(Love the packaging!!).

    The magic of the oil to foam cleanser is lovely. Pampering and fresh.

    The toner is fun as well as refreshing.

    My only disappointment was with the moisturizer. It was not at all rich:maybe more a protection product than enrichment. I was also wary of the hygiene issue of the pump disc which left a residue.

    Overall, I’m breaking up with to Biotherm for cleansing and toning. My new love will continue to be REPLY.

    I will continue with their Aquasource for moisturizing.

    Special thanks to Bill Marriott for the introduction to REPLY!
