Description

This Age-Defying Day Cream for Dry Skin is formulated with hyaluronic acid and other natural constituents to ensure moisture retention and toning. Naturally derived ingredients help nourish the skin while also enhancing its overall health and texture. They also offer soothing relief as emollients, creating a protective barrier against environmental harm. Use this cream daily to replenish your skin's natural barrier and achieve a refreshed, younger-looking complexion.

Key Benefits

  • Hyaluronic acid, together with other natural constituents, forms a moisture-rich film on the skin's surface, ensuring moisture retention and toning. It also deeply infiltrates the epidermis, drawing and preserving water for profound hydration.
  • Our formula includes naturally derived ingredients teeming with vitamins A, C, E, and B3 (niacinamide), peptides, and antioxidants. These essential nutrients not only nourish the skin but also enhance its overall health and texture.
  • The soothing effect of our botanical ingredients primarily stems from their capabilities to alleviate inflammation, soothe irritation, and replenish the skin's natural barrier.
  • Our plant-based oils, acting as emollients, soften and smooth the skin by filling in the minuscule gaps between skin cells that are devoid of moisture. This action aids in moisture retention and forms a protective barrier against environmental harm.

Key Ingredients

  • Acid Hyaluronic (active): The ultimate active to maintain skin hydration. We combine different molecular weight particles (low and high). Larger molecules create a water-filled film on the skin's surface, retaining moisture and toning, smoothing wrinkles. Smaller molecules penetrate deep into the epidermis, attracting and retaining water for deep hydration. The combination produces a plumping effect, visibly reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

  • Argan Oil (carrier oil): This oil, originating from Morocco, is rich in vitamin E and unsaponifiables, renowned for its nourishing, regenerating, and restructuring properties. Its antioxidant content makes it an ideal active ingredient to combat signs of skin aging, while its fatty acids restore suppleness and softness to dry and depleted skin.
  •  Biotech Elastin Enhancer (active): This 100% natural hi-tech active, derived from biotechnologies, has demonstrated potent effects on elastin synthesis and dermal components in vitro. It is ideal for restoring skin tone, firmness, and elasticity, as well as preventing skin sagging. By stimulating the production of elastin, this ingredient helps improve skin elasticity and firmness, resulting in a more youthful and toned appearance.
  • Camelia (carrier oil): Known by another name, tea seed oil, Camellia oil stands as a superior hydrator, infused with oleic acid - a monounsaturated fatty acid, it excels in reinforcing and maintaining the skin's natural moisture barrier. Brimming with powerful antioxidants, inclusive of Vitamin E, it shields the skin from environmental aggressors such as pollution and UV damage. Its antioxidant-rich nature also aids in the reduction of fine lines and wrinkles, enhancing the skin's youthful appearance. Furthermore, Camellia oil is a nutrient powerhouse, encompassing an array of vitamins, such as A, B, and E, along with diverse minerals. These combined nourishing properties actively contribute to a healthful glow and overall skin wellbeing.
  •  Pomegranate Organic (carrier oil): Pomegranate Oil is a treasure trove of essential fatty acids, making it a valuable resource with potent emollient properties. As an effective moisturizer, it works diligently to shield the skin from potential environmental damage and combat skin conditions associated with dryness. Furthermore, its remarkable antioxidant properties have garnered a reputation for their ability to safeguard skin suppleness and diminish the appearance of fine lines, thereby contributing to the reduction of visible signs of aging.
  • Coenzyme Q10 (active): also known as Ubiquinone, is a crucial cellular component that aids in energy production, thereby rejuvenating and revitalizing the skin for a healthier, more youthful appearance. Serving as a powerful antioxidant, it neutralizes age-accelerating free radicals. With age, our skin's natural Coenzyme Q10 levels decrease, affecting collagen and elastin production, both essential for maintaining skin's elasticity and firmness. Incorporating Coenzyme Q10 in skincare routines can replenish its levels, helping reduce visible signs of aging like fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Damask Rose (hydrosol): This hydrosol helps to hydrate the skin and lock in moisture, making it particularly beneficial for dry or mature skin types. It enhances the skin's ability to retain moisture, keeping it plump and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Also it has anti-inflammatory properties which can help soothe irritated skin, reduce redness, and promote a calm, even complexion. Antioxidant: Like rose essential oil, the hydrosol is rich in antioxidants that can help protect the skin. Damask Rose Hydrosol acts as a natural toner, helping to tighten and firm the skin, reducing pore size, and restoring the skin's pH balance.
  • Stabilized Vitamin C (active): This stabilized form of Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that helps brighten the skin, fade dark spots, and promote a more even skin tone. It also stimulates collagen production for a plump and youthful complexion.
  • Tremella Fuciformis Extract (active): Also known as Snow Mushroom, is a fungus used in traditional Chinese medicine that is now popular in skincare for its moisturizing and antioxidant properties. The polysaccharides in Tremella Fuciformis can hold up to 500 times their weight in water, aiding in skin hydration, improving texture and elasticity, and reducing wrinkles. It's rich in antioxidants, protecting skin from environmental stressors like pollution and UV radiation, which can cause premature aging. Moreover, some studies suggest this extract may have skin-brightening properties, helping to reduce dark spots and uneven skin tone.
  • Vegetal Bisabolol (active): Bisabolol is a powerful ingredient used for its skin-soothing effects, making it ideal for products aimed at sensitive or irritated skin. Derived from the chamomile plant, Bisabolol is recognized for its anti-inflammatory properties, which can help calm and soothe the skin, reducing redness and irritation. Moreover, Bisabolol is known to enhance the percutaneous absorption of certain molecules. This means it can help other ingredients in skincare products to penetrate the skin more effectively, thereby improving their overall effectiveness.
