The Legend of Tiger Grass

The name “Tiger Grass” comes from an ancient legend: wounded tigers would roll in patches of Centella Asiatica to heal their injuries. This powerful botanical has earned its reputation as nature’s skin healer, and modern science has confirmed what traditional healers knew for centuries—Centella’s active compounds are remarkably effective at repairing and strengthening skin.

Potentia TECA concentrates these healing compounds into a standardized extract that delivers consistent, reliable results in every formulation.
