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.

HYA-STIM 3-Peptide – a hyaluronic acid stimulator, produces a firming and remodelling effect by stimulating hyaluronic acid production from within the skin. The lack of firmness and sagging of mature skin is associated with decreasing levels of hyaluronic acid in the skin and the formation of increasingly weak collagen fibres. Hyaluronic acid production stimulator is a new generation tripeptide that acts in two directions: it strongly stimulates the synthesis of hyaluronic acid, which binds water in skin cells, protects the structure of the collagen matrix and replenishes its lack in mature skin. In vivo studies show an increase in hyaluronic acid synthesis by more than four times. The stimulator also increases the levels of decorin and lumican, or proteoglycans, which strengthen collagen fibres, thereby increasing skin elasticity and resilience. Studies indicate that HYA-STIM 3-Peptide can increase collagen synthesis by up to 119%. In vitro studies further indicate that it can prevent collagen breakdown by interfering with collagen degradation of MMP1 and MMP3. It therefore has a dual effect – not only does it increase collagen synthesis, but it also reduces collagen breakdown. As a result, skin hydration is improved, wrinkles are smoothed out and skin tensions are smoothed. The facial oval is modelled and the double chin is significantly reduced.

ATP-STIM – is a novel ingredient that stimulates and increases cellular energy. Improves the appearance of the skin’s surface by reactivating the energy of fibroblasts and keratinocytes. Reduces signs of skin fatigue and improves skin vitality. The skin is more velvety, hydrated, with a healthier tone. It is a cosmetic raw material obtained from the fruit of the Chinese Soap Tree (Sapindus mukorossi) and the seeds of the Peruvian Tara plant (Caesalpinia spinosa), which increases cellular energy levels in the skin and consequently improves its firmness, smooths imperfections and has a moisturising effect. Thanks to the use of an innovative multicapillary injection process, soapwood saponins, bound in a three-dimensional polysaccharide matrix, are gradually released deep into the skin, where they stimulate the mitochondria of fibroblasts to work more intensively. Studies have confirmed a 21% increase in cellular ATP levels. Thanks to the increased energy, skin cells are able to produce collagen and elastic fibres more efficiently, resulting in improved firmness and a smoother skin surface. An additional benefit is the moisturising action of ATP-STIM, thanks to the presence of galactomannans from the Tara tree. ATP-STIM is an ingredient in cosmetic preparations for people with active lifestyles, whose skin shows visible signs of fatigue and the first signs of ageing (caused, among other things, by low energy levels in the cells). ATP-STIM is an active substance that, thanks to innovative technology, combines Himalayan strength with Andean resilience and provides the dose of energy needed to protect and fight the signs of skin fatigue.

Hyaluronic acid – with a range of particle sizes from ultra-low molecular weight 5 kDa (ULMW) to multi-molecular weight 1 MDa, allowing it to penetrate to different levels of the skin, hydrating it deeply and forming an occlusive layer. Low-molecular hyaluronic acid promotes natural hydration in the deeper layers of the epidermis, prevents roughness and quickly replenishes internal moisture. High-molecular hyaluronic acid targets the immediate restoration of the skin’s barrier layer and restores natural hydration.

Ruscus aculeatus extract (Ruscus aculeatus) is mainly rich in saponins and flavonoids, which have a positive effect on the condition of blood vessels. The extract therefore has a strong effect of stimulating blood circulation and reducing the permeability of the vessel walls and increasing their strength. It reduces redness and eliminates swelling.

Chestnut extract (Aesculus hippocastanum) – is an important ingredient in preparations against broken capillaries. It also has a mattifying effect on the skin and removes impurities. It has firming and UV-protective properties. It has anti-inflammatory and anti-oedematous effects while strengthening blood vessels.

Vitamin A (Retinol Palmitate) – has a protective and regenerative effect on the epidermis, soothes inflammation, and is responsible for the growth and maturation of epithelial cells.

Vitamin E (Tocopheryl acetate) – known as the “vitamin of youth. It is responsible for the formation of epidermal cells, inhibits the skin’s ageing process and restores its balance. Protects against harmful UV radiation, prevents strong oxidation of lipids in the skin. It counteracts the release of free radicals, helps maintain the elasticity of the skin and thus prevents skin ageing and the formation of wrinkles.

Vitamin B₅ (Calcium Pantothenate) – activates metabolic processes, has a soothing and calming effect, reduces redness. Activates epidermal cell division, accelerating healing and soothing irritation, moisturises and softens the epidermis. It improves the structure of the epidermis, has a shielding effect, stimulates epithelial formation, has an anti-inflammatory effect, improves and increases the moisture content of the skin – dry skin becomes smooth and supple.

Vitamin B₇ (biotin, vitamin H) – its correct concentration in the body determines the healthy appearance of the skin, hair and nails. This is due to the sulphur molecules in the vitamin, which regulate the activity of the sebaceous and sweat glands. Due to its similar chemical structure to the urea molecule, similar moisturising properties are observed.

Inositol (Inositol) – a plant component, mainly extracted from the hulls of cereal grains. It has an anti-ageing effect. Blocks the tyrosinase process, which prevents melanin formation and hyperpigmentation. Prevents blood vessels from bursting and causes so-called ‘spider veins’ to hide. Natural antioxidant.

Avocado Oil (Persea Gratissima Oil) – regenerating avocado oil with a very high content of triglycerides and natural vitamins A and E. Thanks to its soothing, moisturising and emollient properties, as well as its rapid penetration without leaving a sticky film – it is effective in rejuvenating treatment and prevents skin irritation.

Rose oil (Rosa Moschata Oil), also known as musk rose, is rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, trans-retinoic acid, tannins, flavonoids, vitamin C and beta-carotene. Due to its composition, it has a natural ability to protect against photo-ageing and repairs the effects of UV exposure – smoothing wrinkles, reducing the amount and intensity of pigment spots.

Corn Oil (Zea mays Oil) a valuable plant product contains large amounts of unsaturated fatty acids (contains about 60% linoleic acid), a lot of tocopherols (vitamin E). Thanks to its unsaturated acid content, the emollient improves the epidermal barrier, reduces the risk of hyperpigmentation and normalises the skin’s keratinisation processes.

Shea butter (Butyrospermum Parkii Butter) – is obtained from the seeds of the Vitellaria paradoxa tree (Parka butter). It contains nourishing fatty substances, vitamins E and F and ingredients that protect the skin from UVB radiation. Forms a natural sunscreen and has antioxidant properties. Has a smoothing and soothing effect on irritation. Lightly lubricates the skin without leaving a greasy feeling. Has a protective effect on the intercellular cement, moisturises and regenerates the skin. Increases the cohesion of the epidermal cells, softens and improves the elasticity and colour of the skin.

Alanthoin (provitamin A) – counteracts hypersensitivity and excessive reaction to the sun. It has antioxidant properties. Protects against free radicals, which are the cause of faster skin ageing.

UVA/UVB filters – photostable UVA/UVB filters to protect against radiation and skin damage.
