Key ingredients:
Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (MAP SL) – A stable, water-soluble form of Vitamin C that boosts cell immunity, destroys free radicals, stimulates collagen synthesis and brightens skin. This form of Vitamin C is non-irritating and works synergistically with D-Alpha Tocopherol (Vitamin E) to increase collagen and cell proliferation.
Leontopodium Alpinum (Edelweiss) Meristem Cell Culture – Potent plant-based stem cells that are three times more powerful than Vitamin C alone in defense against environmental, physical and biological stress. Reduces eye wrinkles, prevents loss of collagen and firms skin.
A clinical study on 20 participants aged 35-65 saw a reduction in wrinkles around the eye contour area of 15% after 20 days and 18% after 40 days.
Results from the self-evaluation questionnaire demonstrated that 100% of participants experienced improvement in skin compactness, 95% experienced an increase in smoothness, elasticity and softness.
Gardenia Jasminoides Callus Culture – Plant-based stem cells that boost the natural defensive responses against the environment, stimulate collagen synthesis and act as a matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) inhibitor, restoring firmness and preventing aging.
Honey / Phospholipids / Sphingolipids / Hyaluronic Acid Complex – A liposome complex with three moisturizing components that restores the lipid barrier, increasing water absorption in the epidermis and repairing dry, fissured skin. Ceramides are increased, Trans Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL) is decreased and skin maintains moisturization over a longer period of time.
The combination of honey and hyaluronic acid, both considered Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF), assist with increasing hydration levels at the Extra Cellular Matrix (ECM), which is essential in building moisture deep within the skin.
In a clinical study, participants saw a 40% increase in moisture within two hours of application. This measurement was done on the corneocytes.
Launched in 2017 as part of our compromised barrier repair, this formula was developed to give sensitive and reactive skin a Vitamin C option. It improves skin immunity health, collagen synthesis, antioxidants and overall luminosity. Utilizing a non-irritating form of Vitamin C, Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate, combined with the power of plant stem cells, it also reduces redness. The phospholipid complex increases delivery and provides hydration. This formulation delivers antioxidants and collagen synthesizing ingredients deep within the layers of the skin and increases hydration due the phospholipid complex.
