Key Actives
CROSS LINKED HYALURONIC ACID: A gel based cross-linked hyaluronic acid biotechnologically engineered mixed with UREA. This type of Hyaluronic acid is more resistant to the enzymatic action of hyaluronidases; therefore, it dissolves very slowly, remaining intact on the skin’s surface for a more prolonged period. This increases the hydrating capacity of the acid as well as its protecting and lifting action.
MEDIUM HYALURONIC ACID PM: A key characteristic of this polymer is its ability to bind a large amount of water molecules within the skin. In the extracellular base substance, the highly hydrated hyaluronic acid fills the space between collagen & elastic fibers in dermal cells.
LACTOCOCCUS LACTIS: Based on probiotic technology, it targets the essential characteristics of the skin aging process. By increasing the production of proteins and enzymes essential to the quality of the skin, it improves the barrier function and cell cohesion that aid in renewing the skin. This powerful extract allows the skin to regain and maintain a healthy balance.
PALMITOYL TRIPEPTIDE-1: A peptide containing two matrikines which act in synergy to repair skin damage caused by aging. The matrikines activate the neo synthesis of macromolecules of the extracellular matrix through the genes involved in skin restructuring and repair.
SACCHARIDE ISOMERATE: An exclusive moisturizing magnet that ensures deep and immediate hydration to strengthen the skin’s surface and promote a harmonious interaction between the skin and its microbiome. It is a sugar specially formulated to be dermo-similar to keratin so it can bind to the skin like a magnet, creating a strong synergy with keratin. It is able to hydrate the skin continuously for up to 72 hours, nourishing, soothing, smoothening and decongesting it simultaneously.
VEGETABLE CERAMIDES: These ceramides improve the protective function of the skin while also accelerating the restructuring processes of damaged skin. In addition to the function of forming structures and protecting from atmospheric agents, the ceramides possess antimicrobial properties, and are physiologically active in the control of cell growth processes.
SHEA BUTTER: A vegetable butter rich in noble glycerides and unsaturated fatty acids (with oleic acid that reaches up to 50%). One of its key qualities is its ability to firm and protect the skin against sunburns and further damage. It aids in the production of hyaluronic acids by promoting circulation and the regeneration of the elastic fibers and collagen in the skin. Because of its strong nourishing abilities, it is very beneficial for the care of extremely dry or irritated skin.
OPUNTIA FICUS-INDICA STEM EXTRACT: Prickly pear extract is obtained from prickly pear leaves harvested exclusively in Sicily. The gel contained in the inner part of the leaves is traditionally used on the skin as an anti-reddening, emollient remedy that promotes wound healing. A protective shield on the skin’s surface is formed after solely a week of use, greatly reducing its susceptibility to redness while also effectively moisturizing the skin.
