Key Actives
10% Lactic Acid (L) – Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) that hydrates and exfoliates, reducing wrinkles and pigmentation discolorations. Naturally exists within the skin & gently resurfaces to increase cell turn over for continual youthful clarity
Palmitoyl Oligopeptide - studies have proven that this ingredient can refuel Collagen production by 350% & Hyaluronic Acid production by 146% - amino acids Glycine, Glutamine, Proline and Arginine make up this particular form of Oligopeptide
• Mimics skins natural trigger for accelerated collagen synthesis
• Reduces depth of wrinkles & skin roughness
• Deeply penetrating properties that encourage skins natural healthy function & elasticity
• increase in Hyaluronic Acid provides plumpness from within , combating lines & deep wrinkles
• Works synergistically with Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 promoting overall skin healing & regeneration
Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 - Compound which combines several chains of amino acids to reduce skin inflammation and related skin damage
• Stimulates regeneration of collagen fibres in the dermis by acting as a cellular messenger
• Increases hyaluronic acid helping to tighten skin by attracting moisture to the epidermis
• Skin penetration enhancer
• Decreases inflammation by suppressing Interleukin (created in response to damage) which leads to cellular deterioration
• Accelerates healing by relieving chemical pressure on the skin
• Induces natural collagen production for skin healing and rejuvenation
• Symptoms of rosacea maybe alleviated
• Reduce the appearance of uneven skin tones
Acetyl Tetrapeptide-2 Biomimetic Peptide (EGCG - Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate)
• Active constituent of Green Tea - Initiates NRF-2, the master switch for anti-oxidant signalling
• Protects ECM degradation & modulates inflammation
• Shields DNA, membrane integrity & skin structure
• Reduces oxidative stress & lipid peroxidation
• Inhibits melanogenesis & glycation
2.5% Niacinamide – Vitamin B3
• Repairs barrier function – reducing sensitivity
• Potent anti-inflammatory – calming atopic skin disorders
• Inhibits Melanosome transfer to Keratinocyte – normalising hyperpigmentation
• Maintains surveillance function of Langerhan Cells during UV exposure – reducing tumour formation
• Regulates moisture levels – over active sebaceous activity slowed – hydration levels restored
• Delivery mechanism for other nutrients
Lactobacillus Ferment Lysate (PRE|PRObiotic) – Cutting edge technology deploys antimicrobial peptide (Bacteriocin)
• Advanced oligosaccharide fructans are supplemented into Lactobacillus acidophilus growth media providing potent antibacterial activity
• Lysozyme addition ensures release of filtered pure pre|probiotics
• Reduces erythema, itching & flaking to aid reversal of damaged skin
• Balances healthy microbiome for optimal hydration & recalibrated age resistance
Hyaluronic Acid – Mid – High Molecular Weight
• Natural Moisturising Factor that attracts + binds up to 1000 X its own weight in moisture
• Plumps surface tissue to alleviate dry, thinning skin
• Assists wound healing + repairs barrier function
• Inhibits Trans Epidermal Water Loss– essential for atopic skins
Hyaluronic Acid - Low Molecular Weight
• Trials indicate a reduction in immune-derived inflammation, improving scaling, erythema & pruritus. Effective Seborrheic Dermatitis Rx
• Biological activity triggers built-in immune defence mechanisms whilst inducing anti-bacterial responses effectively healing skins epithelium
• Penetrates effectively to rebuild + plump deeper layers firming the skins surface
• Replenishes the hydration factors diminished with ageing + sun damage to mimic youthful levels
Manuka Honey – Potent anti-microbial properties due to its naturally occurring content of Methylglyoxal. It's high composition of fructose, glucose, proteins, amino acids, vitamins, enzymes & minerals has been shown to improve skin wound healing (primarily through strong anti-bacterial properties) Also acts as an emollient & humectant with soothing skin conditioning properties that helps skin repair itself & prevent infections
D-Panthenol – Vitamin B5
• Vital nourishment that adds moisture, maintains elasticity & strength of barrier function
• Anti-inflammatory – calming atopic skin disorders by reducing oxidative stress & environmental toxins
• Smooths roughness, irritation & fine lines
• Revitalises & aids healing processes by encouraging growth of new epithelial cells
• Regulates moisture levels – over active sebaceous activity slowed – hydration levels restored
• Nutrients promote luminous, even toned skin by managing healthy levels of fibroblasts, prolific in skins connective tissue defying ageing
Advanced Olive Complex: It is a natural complex of fatty acids, chemically similar to the lipidic composition of the skin surface
• Has the ability to generate liquid crystal structures that mimic stratum corneum organization
• Due to its exceptional chemical composition and physical structuring, it acts in a biomimetic manner, interacting with the human hydrolipidic film to promote healthy barrier function, skin hydration and elegant skin feel
• Created to support green chemistry philosophy with cutting-edge technology, making it possible to craft products with superior function & texture
Phospholipids | Sphingolipids: Plant-derived ceramides in lamellar structure – liposomal delivery
• An epidermis that is intact at the outermost boundary is crucial for a well-functioning physiological interaction between the individual skin layers
• Aids restoration of the lipid barrier of dry and fissured skin conditions
• Ensures a balanced water content of the skin
• High components of lipids in liquid crystalline form & sphingolipids (ceramides, glycoceramides)
Intercellular lipid matrix represents the mortar between the corneocytes (bricks) & is made up of the following:
• 50% Ceramides (most important structural elements of the lipid barrier)
• 25% Free fatty acids
• 20% Cholesterol
• 5% Cholesterol Sulfate
• Amino Acids
Sodium PCA
• Natural Moisturising Factor – providing long term correction to dehydration
Physiological hydrators offer long term restoration to treat NMF + LIPID deficiencies
Seabuckthorn CO2 Oil – Potent anti-inflammatory containing omegas 3+6 & vitamins E + A. Used to treat radiation burns
CoQ10 - Plays an essential role in our biological machinery, producing biological energy (ATP) inside the cells, aiding repair & keeping cells healthy. Also a potent antioxidant, it neutralises harmful free radicals, preventing premature ageing
Vitamins - Anti-Oxidants / Anti-Inflammatories: Alpha Bisabilol (Pure Chamomile Extract) Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A) Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate (stable Vitamin C) D-Alpha Tocopherol (Pure Vitamin E) Rosemary - With an abundance of flavonoids (phytonutrients or plant chemicals) that provide remedial benefits through cell signalling pathways and antioxidant effects, these botanical wound healing agents function as anti-oxidants and protect the skin cells from oxidation
