DESCRIPTION:

Matrixyl 3-Peptide – innovative very potent anti-wrinkle low-molecular peptide stimulates the synthesis of the 6 main components of the dermal matrix and dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ): collagen I, III, IV (and HSP47), laminin-5, fibronectin and hyaluronic acid. It improves the basic biomechanical parameters of the skin condition: skin hydration, density, firmness and elasticity, skin tone and facial oval, thus filling in wrinkles from within, also on the forehead and “crow’s feet”, producing a visible effect of smoother and fuller skin. It gives visible effects of reducing the signs of ageing, improves skin structure, stimulates the synthesis of support fibres, hyaluronic acid, strengthens the dermal-epidermal junction, improves skin elasticity and resilience. The effectiveness of the anti-wrinkle action, especially the lifting effect, reduction in the volume and depth of wrinkles, was confirmed in an in vivo panel study on a group of 25 women aged 42-70 years.

Phytrodial – a specific phytoestrogen system with clinically proven efficacy to support hormonal balance. Phytoestrogens extracted from extracts of 8 plants specially selected for their highest content, such as: Stinkweed (Cimicifuga Racemosa), Japanese knotweed (Polygonum Cuspidatum), soy isoflavones (Soy Isoflavones), angelica (Angelica Sinensis), red clover (Trifolium Pratense), pomegranate (Punica granatum), Kudzu (Pueraria lobata), Kwao Krua (Pueraria Mirifica). Phytoestrogens (belong to the group of so-called phytohormones) are estrogenic compounds found in plants, showing similarity to the action of human estrogens. They have a beneficial effect on the skin, reducing changes caused by estrogen deficiency. Phytoestrogens reduce damage to cell membranes, inhibit the action of metallproteinases, key enzymes that break down collagen and elastic fibres in the skin. They stimulate, through fibroblasts, the synthesis of proteoglycans, a key component of the connective tissue matrix, which influence the degree of hydration of the tissue. Phytoestrogens also have an anti-radical action. They increase antioxidant protection, prevent oxidation and damage to cell membranes by slowing down the action of the enzyme collagenase. The Phytrodial complex thus replenishes estrogen deficiency and reduces atrophic changes in the skin caused by hormonal imbalance. It stimulates the synthesis of collagen IV and VII, strengthens the dermal-epidermal DEJ junction and microcirculation. Improves elasticity, firmness, blood circulation and skin tone.

Menoskin – a multifunctional active substance combating the undesirable effects of thinning, sagging, dehydration and wrinkling of the skin of mature and post- and menopausal women, which are the result of disturbances in the body’s hormonal balance. Extracted from a special species of Chinese mushroom Poria Cocos used in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Rich in polysaccharides and triterpenes, it reduces the effects of hormonal skin ageing by affecting key factors such as hyaluronic acid and its receptor CD44, collagen and the SPRR family of proteins.

Extract of the red cartilage alga (kelp Chondrus Crispus) contains carrageenan and mineral salts. It has a moisturising effect, reduces transepidermal water loss, forms a polysaccharide film on the surface of the skin, smooths it and facilitates skin regeneration. Carrageenan is a plant silicone that forms a thin film on the skin surface. This non-occlusive polysaccharide film binds to epidermal proteins and forms a ‘second’ layer of skin. It effectively protects against water loss (TEWL). Minerals (especially calcium and magnesium) strengthen and stimulate keratinisation, enhancing the skin’s resistance to environmental factors – detergents, UV radiation, irritants, pollution.

Hops extract (Humulus lupulus) – rich in phytohormones, has a beneficial effect on skin metabolism and epidermal renewal. It activates the production of collagen and elastin, counteracts skin flaccidity, strengthens the skin’s structure and accelerates regeneration processes. Hops extract also has antibacterial and calming effects.

Rosemary extract (Rosmarinus officinalis) – is a powerful antioxidant. Thanks to its antioxidant action, it protects skin cells from degeneration. It has an antiseptic, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effect. In addition, it accelerates the regeneration of skin damaged or destroyed by the sun’s rays. It is also good for regenerating scarred skin.

Sage extract (Salvia officinalis) – purifying with antiseptic, astringent and antioxidant properties. Has anti-inflammatory and anti-irritant properties. Regulates sebum secretion. Strengthens blood vessels – inhibits micro-bleeding from excessively dilated or damaged capillaries.

Hamamelis extract (Hamamelis virginiana) – contains a mixture of tannins, organic acids (gallic, ellagic), flavonoids and saponins. It has strong regenerative, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and strong astringent effects. Soothes symptoms of irritation and redness. Improves blood supply to the skin.

Horsetail extract (Equisetum arvense) – a rich source of silicon. This element ensures that the connective tissue maintains its moisture content, provides the skin with elasticity, resilience and a healthy appearance, and counteracts the formation of wrinkles. It soothes inflammation of the epidermis and accelerates its regeneration, seals blood vessels and has an anti-edema effect.

Lemon extract (Citrus limonum) – has antioxidant, nourishing and anti-wrinkle effects. It contains a lot of vitamin C – one of the most effective antioxidants, which stimulates collagen synthesis in the skin and thus increases the density of the dermis, improves its elasticity and reduces fine wrinkles, in addition to sealing blood vessels.

Asian Centella extract (Centella asiatica) stimulates fibroblasts in the dermis to produce collagen and elastin. It also stimulates the synthesis of hyaluronic acid, contributing to an increase in the skin’s water content and thus hydration. It also has an antioxidant effect and accelerates angiogenesis, i.e. the development of new blood vessels. All these properties result in a shallowing of wrinkles. It stimulates circulation, has an anti-edema effect and strengthens the skin’s blood vessels.

Pine extract (Pinus sylvestris) – an ingredient with antibacterial, antifungal, antiseptic and analgesic effects. It has warming, muscle relaxing and vasodilating properties. It aids the removal of toxins from the skin, improves elasticity and hydration, as well as the penetration of active substances into the skin. Promotes healing of wounds, frostbite and inflammation.

Yamus yam extract (Dioscorea Villosa) – contains steroidal saponins, substances which show a similar effect to progesterone. It is mainly used by women as it restores the balance of sex hormones. Studies have shown that the plant relieves menstrual pain, premenstrual symptoms and relieves the discomforts of menopause. The extract is also used in cosmetics, as it improves firmness, moisturises and makes the skin more supple.

Liquorice extract (Glycyrrhiza glabra) – extract from the root of this plant has strong water binding properties in the skin, so it is an effective moisturising ingredient. It soothes skin irritation and inflammation, alleviates the effects of UV radiation and has antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal properties. Strengthens blood vessels, reduces under-eye puffiness and skin redness, brightens skin tone. It increases the regenerative ability of skin cells, which is why it is also used in cosmetic preparations as an anti-wrinkle ingredient. Inhibits the activity of tyrosinase, an enzyme that contributes to the formation of discolouration.

Thistle Extract (Silybum Adans) – contains the enzyme silymarin. The chemical compounds of silymarin stimulate keratinocyte proliferation, type I collagen and elastin production, i.e. it has a rejuvenating effect. counteracts inflammatory and allergic symptoms. It has antioxidant properties and a high free radical scavenging capacity. Silymarin reduces autoimmune reactions. It is recommended protectively in the case of exposure to toxic chemicals, among other allergic diseases.

Cimicifuga racemosa extract (Cimicifuga Racemosa) – the extract from the root is rich in isoflavones, which resemble estrogens in their spatial structure, thus showing affinity to their receptors. they exhibit proestrogenic effects. These compounds control enzyme activity and influence cell division and growth. They stimulate the production of hyaluronic acid, which provides the skin with adequate hydration and elasticity. They are also characterised by very strong antioxidant properties. When used in cosmetics, they prevent oxidation and damage to cell membranes, inhibit the action of enzymes such as collagenase, which breaks down the support fibres of the dermis, and strengthen blood vessels. They also have a soothing and anti-inflammatory effect.
