DESCRIPTION:

Niacinamide – a form of vitamin B₃ (an amide derivative) with the characteristics of a powerful antioxidant – has effective and widespread rejuvenating effects. Indicated as an alternative to retinol. It is a precursor of the molecule of youth – NAD+ necessary for the production of cellular energy and proper mitochondrial function. It is not photosensitising and can be used all year round. It regenerates the skin barrier by stimulating the differentiation of keratinocytes, increases skin hydration and elasticity. Stimulates collagen production and reduces wrinkles. Improves microcirculation, has a soothing effect and reduces symptoms of irritation. It normalises the exfoliation of the epidermis, regulates sebum production, lightens discolouration and evens skin tone.

Mela-Ginseng – extract from Korean ginseng root standardised to Rb3 ginsenosides, targeted to lighten hyperpigmentation by inhibiting tyrosinase activity and melanogenesis. It prevents the production and accumulation of melanocytes in the skin, reducing pigmentation and discolouration. It also has anti-wrinkle and anti-ageing effects and improves tissue oxygenation. It stimulates micro-circulation and nourishes skin cells to give freshness and radiance. It rebuilds the skin’s hydro-lipid mantle and stimulates skin cell renewal and regeneration.

Vitamin D Booster – a polysaccharide fraction of oligofructosans extracted from chicory root. “The sunshine vitamin”, as vitamin D is often referred to, plays an important role in maintaining the phosphate-calcium homeostasis of the human body and skin. Unfortunately, the synthesis of this vitamin by the skin, as well as the activity of its receptor (VDR), are both reduced by the passage of time and by lack of or insufficient exposure to sunlight. This leads to a weakening of the skin’s barrier function. Vitamin D Booster, acting in a manner analogous to vitamin D, restores vitamin D receptor (VDR) function, stimulates the molecular network involved in keratinocyte differentiation, and accelerates skin barrier regeneration.

Vitamin E (Tocopheryl acetate) – known as the “vitamin of youth. It is responsible for the formation of epidermal cells, inhibits the skin’s ageing process and restores its balance. Protects against harmful UV radiation, prevents strong oxidation of lipids in the skin. It counteracts the release of free radicals, helps maintain the elasticity of the skin and thus prevents skin ageing and the formation of wrinkles.

Marine collagen with a triple helix – has excellent moisturising effects. Increases the skin’s protection against external damage, particularly from UV sun exposure.

Marine elastin – stimulates the synthesis of new elastic fibres. It nourishes the skin, enhances elasticity and reduces wrinkles.

Marine Glycogen – increases cellular energy for regeneration, oxygenates and revitalises. Restores the energy reserves of the cells, repairs micro-damage.

Honey extract – contains polysaccharides, amino acids, lactic acid and urea to enhance water retention and hydration.

Multimolecular hyaluronic acid 1MDa – forms a protective film, increases moisture reserves, reduces transepidermal water loss (TEWL, Trans Epidermal Water Loss). Protects the skin from dryness and adverse effects of external factors. Gives an immediate sense of proper skin tone and elasticity. It strengthens the network of collagen and elastin fibres and smooths out wrinkles.

Extract of quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa) – an exotic plant known as the rice of the Incas. It contains proteins, carbohydrates, unsaturated fats, omega-3 fatty acids and vitamins. It strongly moisturises and regenerates. Increases anti-radical protection, inhibits the ageing process. Improves skin elasticity, reduces sensitivity to sunlight.

Aloe vera juice (Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice) – has strong anti-inflammatory and soothing effects. Promotes healing and soothes irritation, inflammation and micro-injuries to the skin. Stimulates the formation of new, healthy epidermis, but also relieves pain. Effectively moisturises, prevents flaking and improves dry skin. Has antiseptic and antibacterial effects, as well as anti-wrinkle and nourishing properties. It strengthens the skin’s defence mechanisms, promotes sun protection and has an antioxidant effect.

Borage extract (Borago officinalis) – the mucilaginous substances present in borage form a characteristic film on the stratum corneum, which helps regulate water loss and maintain skin hydration. Meanwhile, the organic acids contained in the extract enhance the keratinisation process. Borage extract is also rich in antioxidants, making it ideal for mature and sensitive skin. Another cosmetic use of borage is to strengthen blood vessels and tighten the skin. It also has anti-inflammatory and soothing properties that are effective in treating dermatoses.

Shea butter (Butyrospermum Parkii Butter) – obtained from the seeds of the Vitellaria paradoxa (Parka butter) tree. It contains nourishing fatty substances, vitamins E and F and ingredients that protect the skin from UVB radiation. Forms a natural sunscreen and has antioxidant properties. Has a smoothing and soothing effect on irritation. Lightly lubricates the skin without leaving a greasy feeling. Has a protective effect on the intercellular cement, moisturises and regenerates the skin. Increases the cohesiveness of the epidermal cells, softens and improves the elasticity and colour of the skin.
