(ARA) - A little pampering can go a long way in keeping your skin looking radiant and youthful. Using natural ingredients from the Arctic area of Scandinavia arms you with beauty benefits to tackle the signs of worry, stress and aging.

The extreme winters in the Arctic and the short, intense summer season with the exotic midnight sun, as well as the clean rivers, forests and marshlands, give way to unique, highly adaptable plant-based ingredients with potent capabilities to strengthen, revitalize and protect skin.

Put the power behind these Arctic plants to good use in making your skin look and feel radiant. Here's what you need to know:

* Cloudberries flourish in the northern parts of Finland. These super berries are not only delicious to eat, but also contain high doses of vitamin C that benefit the body and skin. Cloudberries actually contain twice the vitamin C compared to oranges. When applied to the skin, vitamin C provides valuable protection against the signs of aging and delivers radiance and brightness to the skin. Additionally, Arctic cloudberry seed oil works to fortify the skin, protecting it from both internal and external stress factors. Arctic cloudberry is a key ingredient in Lumene's Vitamin C+ line of product, which includes the Vitamin C+ Bright Skin Radiance Nectar. Use this to gently exfoliate, minimize pores and make your skin look smooth.

* Sea buckthorn from the Arctic region has powerful beauty benefits due to its high level of omega fatty acids and peptides. Arctic sea buckthorn seed oil promotes skin regeneration and cell renewal. It also nourishes and strengthens the skin. Featured in the Lumene Premium Beauty product line, sea buckthorn helps to rejuvenate skin and minimize the signs of aging.

* Linseed has been used medicinally for centuries, and the extract can be used to reduce skin redness and irritation, building a protective layer against allergens and external irritants. It is also known for its soothing properties and the calming effect it has on skin.

* Lingonberry is packed with antioxidants and omegas, found in the seed oil of these small red berries, and promotes skin renewal, natural hydration and balanced skin nutrition for a healthy glow.
