VITAMIN E (TOCOPHEROL) participates in tissue respiration processes, supports the immune system (including skin barrier immunity), protecting the reproduction of immune system cells. It is necessary for the stabilization of biological membranes. By slowing down the process of peroxide lipid formation, it restores their structure and function. It is a powerful antioxidant. Participating in reactions with lipids, it forms a low-energy tocopherol radical, which by itself does not promote prolonged chain reactions with membrane lipids, but can restore its antioxidant properties with other antioxidants, such as vitamin C. It preserves and enhances the effect of vitamin C on the skin, strengthens the hydrolipid mantle and is a natural sunscreen, protecting the skin from UV rays and slowing down the aging process. Vitamin E is an irreplaceable component of eyelash care. It activates the processes of growth and regeneration, affecting the hair follicles and prevents hair breakage by providing antioxidant protection.
PALMITOYL TRIPEPTIDE-8 is a highly effective peptide, which regulates neurogenic irritation and maintains the optimum threshold of skin sensitivity. Suppresses the production of inflammatory mediators, reduces vascular permeability. Reduces inflammation and skin reactivity caused by various reasons: UV radiation, immune reactions, stress, chemical irritants and mechanical action. Effectively soothes irritated, sensitive skin and provides it with protection and comfort. By improving the skin’s own protective functions, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-8 promotes skin elasticity.
SCVALAN protects the skin against high temperatures, excessive moisture evaporation and the spread of bacterial infections thanks to its multipurpose action. Firstly, squalane is easily “embedded” into the skin’s lipid layer, restoring it and preventing the evaporation of moisture. Secondly, squalane enhances cellular immunity, stimulates the production of antibodies fighting bacteria, has antifungal effect. Thirdly, squalane actively participates in the fight against skin aging, increasing its elasticity, accelerating regeneration, helping to smooth fine wrinkles, stimulating antioxidant protection. Protected skin with a restored lipid barrier can “resist” many inflammatory processes. Squalane is absolutely non-comedogenic and has excellent enhancer properties. Due to the natural affinity with the composition of skin fat squalene molecules penetrate deeply into the skin entrapping it with moisture and other active substances.
ASCOPHYLLUM EXTRACT (brown algae) provides efficient skin nourishment, moisturizing and regeneration to improve its turgor and elasticity. It has powerful antioxidant properties thanks to the complete vitamin-antioxidant complex in its composition. Ascophyllum extract has a pronounced anti-aging effect due to its high content of fucoidan. Fucoidan macromolecules are responsible for increasing procollagen and TGF-β1 release from skin fibroblasts, thus activating extracellular matrix metabolism and increasing collagen synthesis.
ASPARAGOPSIS ARMATA EXTRACT (red algae) contains a high concentration of bioactive silica and carrageenans rich in vitamin K and has a triple effect on the skin. Its moisturizing effect is due to its high water-binding capacity – the moisture is retained in the stratum corneum by creating a moisture-preserving semi-permeable film. Asparagüpsis Armata extract has strong antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, blocks the activity of inflammatory mediators, accelerates the healing of micro-injuries and minor skin damage. Rejuvenating properties are manifested in the activation of collagen production, restoring skin elasticity.
WHITE WILD WILLOW BARK EXTRACT has active anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and anti-stress properties. Its ability to inhibit cyclooxygenase (COX-2) leads to reduced synthesis of prostaglandins, particularly prostaglandin PGE2, which increases vascular permeability and triggers swelling. Willow bark extract significantly increases the skin’s resistance to UV radiation and other adverse environmental factors thanks to its salicin content – it stimulates the production of heat shock proteins in skin cells in order to protect them and increase their resistance to negative external influences. In addition, salicin, contained in maximum quantity in willow extract, actively regulates the expression of “youth genes” in the epidermis. It increases the activity of HAS1 and HAS2 genes involved in the synthesis of hyaluronic acid as well as enhancing the activity of genes encoding the enzyme lysyloxidase, which is required for collagen synthesis. At the same time, the expression of genes responsible for the degradation of collagen and hyaluronic acid is suppressed by salicin.
