Biologically active components: synergy for solving various problems

Specific components

Coenzyme Q10

Antioxidant – filling – nutrition.

Promotes tissue regeneration, reduces the formation of comedones. Coenzyme Q is a molecule involved in the process of energy synthesis in mitochondria. It has antioxidant activity and protects mitochondria from oxidative damage. In combination with vitamin E and retinol, it is used in treatments against free radicals and skin aging. With regular use, the skin becomes soft, silky, radiant and well-hydrated. To protect the skin from free radicals, it is recommended to add 2 drops of Q10 to your day cream in the morning.

Retinol

Regeneration – anti-wrinkle – lightening – rejuvenating effect.

An important active component for skin rejuvenation, reduces signs of aging, smoothes wrinkles, stimulates cell regeneration. Recommended for skin with acne and increased pigmentation in combination with vitamin C.

Panthenol

Regeneration – hydration – calming. Ionization (–).

Activates cell regeneration and promotes the formation of new ones, accelerates the process of epithelization of the skin, relieves irritation, and has a strong moisturizing, regenerating and calming effect. Panthenol prevents dehydration and maintains natural energy balance. Increases collagen's resistance to the destructive effects of free radicals. Recommended for dry, couperose, aging skin.

Urea

Softening – filling – moisturizing. Ionization (–).

It has a strong moisturizing and softening effect, helps exfoliate dead cells, cleanse pores, and nourish the skin. Its molecular weight allows it to easily penetrate into the deeper layers of the epidermis, retain moisture and serve as a conductor for other active substances. With oily skin and pH imbalance, the fatty film does not allow moisture to pass inside. It is necessary to apply urea to restore the hydrolipid mantle. Recommended for all skin types, especially dry skin, flaking, psoriasis and eczema.

Hyaluronic acid

Filling – hydration – anti-aging – anti-wrinkle. Ionization (+/–).

Hyaluronic acid is located in the dermis, its main function is to stablely retain a significant amount of water in the skin. The main property of hyaluronic acid is its unique ability to bind water. It is highly compatible with the skin, rarely causes allergic reactions, creates a thin film that prevents moisture loss without disrupting gas exchange, and restores water balance in the skin. Hyaluronic acid stabilizes collagen fibers, increases their elasticity, stimulates the division of skin cells, has a positive effect on the formation and regeneration of the structure of the dermis, and maintains an optimal level of moisture.

Hydrolyzed collagen

Elasticity – regeneration – anti-aging. Ionization (+).

A chain of amino acids: glycine, proline, hydroxyproline, hydroxylysine - penetrates deep into the skin, restores its elasticity, forms a breathable, moisture-retaining film on the skin, slows down the loss of hydration, softens and tightens the facial contour.

Hydrolyzed elastin

Elasticity – regeneration – anti-aging.

Ionization (+).

Contains the amino acid desmosine - a fibrillar protein that, together with collagen, forms a three-dimensional network of protein fibers and ensures protein cross-linking. Glycoprotein is responsible for the elasticity of the skin, penetrates deep into the dermis, restores elasticity, softens expression wrinkles, and evens out the oval of the face.

Peptides

Firmness – elasticity – reduction of wrinkles. Ionization (+).

The molecular weight of peptides is significantly less than that of proteins, due to this they are able to penetrate cells and have a biological effect, stimulate the formation of collagen, increase skin elasticity, relieve inflammation and stimulate regeneration processes, promote the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans, help restore blood microcirculation, increase the natural mechanisms of antioxidant protection, control melanogenesis (melanin formation).

Palmitoyl Dipeptide-5 stimulates the production of type 4 and type 7 collagen fibers. Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 is a remodeling peptide that improves the quality and initiates renewal processes of the intercellular matrix. Aqua-Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-19 inhibits the contraction of muscles responsible for the appearance of facial wrinkles, has a botulinum-like effect, inhibits the release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine into neuromuscular junctions, acting selectively on the peripheral cholinergic endings of motor nerves, reduces the depth of wrinkles and completely removes fine wrinkles, makes the skin young and elastic, provides hydration and prevents moisture loss.

The technological protocol for the procedure using active components consists of several stages:

• cleansing and toning the skin;
• applying the serum to the skin of the face, neck and décolleté: water serums – 5–10 drops, oil serums – 2–5 drops. It is recommended to apply the water/gel based product first, then the oil based product;
• applying gel/cream around the eyes and face cream.
