DESCRIPTION:

Ergothioneine Hyal Antioxidant Ferment – ​​a complex of ergothioneine with hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid and trehalose. Obtained through the fermentation of oriental mushrooms Hericium Erinaceum and Tricholoma Matsutake, which increases the concentration of ergothioneine nearly 15-fold. Ergothioneine is a natural amino acid obtained from these mushrooms. Ergothioneine captures active oxygen species much faster than other antioxidants because keratinocytes (epidermal cells) possess receptors for ergothioneine, allowing it to penetrate the cell membrane (cytoprotective effect), while most other antioxidants act in the extracellular matrix (around the cell). It has strong antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and cytoprotective effects. It protects cells from damage and DNA and mitochondria in skin cells. It improves the appearance of skin by reducing hyperpigmentation and age spots, and increasing firmness and elasticity. It smoothes wrinkles, reduces dullness, and increases skin elasticity. It improves resistance to photodegradation. It prevents cell apoptosis associated with oxidative stress.

Oxygen Cordyceps AntiHipoxia Ferment – ​​a ferment obtained using Lactococcus Lactis strains from cordyceps extract (Cordyceps Militaris Extract). This well-known medicinal mushroom, native to Asia, has adaptogenic properties. Oxygen Cordyceps AntiHipoxia Ferment is rich in various active ingredients, such as cordycepin, cordycepic acid, and cordyceps polysaccharides. It improves skin oxygenation, counteracting hypoxia. It supports the active and passive transport of oxygen and nutrients by increasing HIF-1α expression, improving cellular oxygen and metabolite supply and activating metabolic processes in the skin. It also has antioxidant, firming, discoloration-brightening, and anti-aging properties. It supports the rebuilding of the skin’s microbiome, improves microcirculation, and accelerates epidermal cell renewal. It activates skin detox by stimulating autophagy, the removal of damaged cells. It increases collagen production and brightens the skin with a super-glow effect.

Vitamin C Silicum – a combination of vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) and silanol with antioxidant and anti-aging properties. Vitamin C Silicum prevents skin aging associated with oxidative stress. It is the architect of collagen and beautiful, healthy skin, influencing the synthesis and organization of collagen fibers, leading to a significant increase in skin elasticity and wrinkle reduction. It improves microcirculation and strengthens blood vessels. It stimulates the production of hyaluronic acid. It inhibits melanogenesis and has chelating properties, particularly against metal ions, including copper, which is essential for melanin synthesis. Consequently, it brightens skin tone, evens it out, and reduces discoloration, creating a super-glow effect. Silanol increases the stability and effectiveness of vitamin C, as well as its bioavailability. Silicon is considered a powerful anti-aging ingredient: it supports increased collagen production, making skin firmer and denser.

Vitamin C (SAP) is a highly stable derivative of vitamin C, which metabolizes 95% of the time in the skin into ascorbic acid within 2 minutes. The resulting ascorbic acid penetrates the deeper layers of the skin. Thanks to its ability to inhibit melanin synthesis and neutralize free radicals, it protects the skin from sun damage, promoting a healthy and radiant appearance. It is a powerful antioxidant and effective free radical neutralizer. It stimulates the production of collagen, type I and III collagen—types of collagen crucial for skin firmness and structure. It reduces the appearance of discoloration and evens out skin tone. It inhibits lipid peroxidation, reduces inflammation, and restores lipid balance, resulting in a natural glow.

Ferulic acid – found naturally in cereal grains such as rice, corn, wheat, and rye – is a powerful antioxidant, neutralizing free radicals that cause cell damage and accelerated skin aging. It rebuilds the skin matrix, stimulates collagen and elastin synthesis, and effectively moisturizes. It also has anti-inflammatory properties. It has photoprotective properties and strengthens natural UV protection, absorbing radiation across the full UVA and UVB spectrum, up to the high ultraviolet range of 450 nm. It prevents and reduces discoloration. It can be used year-round with appropriate sun protection, is non-irritating, and is also recommended for sensitive skin.

High- and Low-Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid. High-molecular weight hyaluronic acid binds water in the epidermis, providing intense and long-lasting skin hydration. This smooths the skin, improves its elasticity, improves its firmness, and can also help reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Low-molecular-weight 50kDa hyaluronic acid – deeply penetrating, it increases the hydration of the intercellular matrix of connective tissue. It strengthens the network of collagen and elastin fibers in the dermis. It stimulates self-hydration mechanisms, which promote increased skin elasticity and wrinkle reduction.

Dragon Fruit Extract (Hylocereus undatus) is a powerful, natural antioxidant for radiant and healthy skin. Rich in flavonoids, gallic acid, and caffeic acid, it neutralizes free radicals, slows the aging process, and stimulates collagen synthesis. The extract strengthens the skin’s lipid-water barrier (TEWL), supporting hydration, re-epithelialization, and accelerating healing. Its high vitamin C content supports cell renewal and gives the skin a healthy glow. Thanks to its antibacterial properties, it effectively combats imperfections and improves the condition of inflamed skin. Recommended for dull, tired, and mature skin.

Date palm extract (Phoenix dactylifera) is a natural ally for healthy and youthful-looking skin. It is rich in antioxidants—flavonoids and polyphenols—which effectively protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals. This slows the aging process, supports skin elasticity, and helps maintain a healthy appearance. The extract contains B vitamins, vitamin A, and valuable minerals—calcium, magnesium, and potassium. These ingredients stimulate active regeneration, improve skin texture, and even out skin tone. Thanks to its high content of natural sugars and amino acids, the extract intensely moisturizes, restoring the skin’s water balance and preventing dehydration. Phytohormones, which have clinically proven anti-wrinkle properties and help reduce the appearance of signs of aging, make the extract particularly valuable.

Vitamin E – has a strong antioxidant effect, neutralizes free radicals, protects the skin from damage and oxidative stress, delaying the aging process. It also moisturizes, regenerates, and soothes, improves skin firmness and texture, promotes wound healing, and calms inflammation. It is an effective antioxidant that strengthens the skin’s protective barrier and improves its overall appearance. It supports the action of sunscreens, enhancing protection against harmful UVA and UVB radiation and oxidative stress.

Squalane – is a biocompatible emollient derived from Brazilian sugarcane. A natural component of the skin’s lipid barrier, it ideally replenishes epidermal lipid deficiencies. It has the ability to penetrate deep into the skin, thus helping to deliver active ingredients. It improves water balance in the skin, has exceptional moisturizing properties, and prevents moisture loss from cells. It also softens and smooths the skin, leaving it silky smooth and free from a sticky residue. Clinical studies conducted on 40 women (age range: 37–60) showed that it is non-comedogenic, improves skin firmness and elasticity, reduces stretch marks, and evens out skin tone.

Plant-derived bio-chromophores, developed by Chantarelle experts, are ingredients in photosensitive preparations for PDT LASER or LED photodynamic therapies. They have the unique ability to absorb light at specific wavelengths. When applied to the treated skin area, they accumulate laser light, multiplying the energy reserves within the cell, thereby maximizing metabolic efficiency and the absorption of active ingredients contained in the preparations.
