ACTIVE INGREDIENTS
ADENOSINE
A messenger substance (nucleoside) produced by the body that is found in almost all cells of the body and is used in cosmetic products as a powerful anti-aging agent. Adenosine can penetrate quickly and deeply into the skin, activating cell energy, metabolism and the production of collagen and elastic fibers. Blood flow and microcirculation in the skin are improved, and the skin structure is strengthened and compacted. In addition, adenosine reduces the amount of the transmitter acetylcholine at the transition from nerve to muscle, which relaxes the facial muscles. This prevents the formation of wrinkles and smoothes existing lines and wrinkles, making the complexion appear firmer and more rested.
NIACINAMIDE
Is a form of vitamin B3 and is essential for many enzymatic reactions in the body. Niacinamide also plays an important role in the skin's metabolism. As an antioxidant, it helps to protect the skin from damage caused by UV radiation and environmental pollution. It activates the body's own collagen and elastin production in the dermis, which improves the skin's firmness and elasticity and counteracts the formation of wrinkles, and improves the skin's barrier function and moisture content by stimulating the synthesis of the skin's own ceramides and lipids. Niacinamide also inhibits the production and spread of the skin pigment melanin, which contributes to a more even complexion. As an all-rounder, it is also excellent against impure skin because it regulates sebum production, minimizes enlarged pores and has anti-inflammatory properties. This also reduces the reactivity of sensitive skin that is prone to redness.
THISTLE OIL
Thistle oil is pressed from the seeds of the safflower or safflower plant. This plant originally comes from Egypt, but is now mainly found in India, Mexico and the USA.
Thistle oil has a particularly high proportion of linoleic acid (65-80%), which supports the natural barrier function and protects the skin from transepidermal water loss. The oil also contains vitamins A, E and K, is intensively moisturising and helps maintain skin elasticity. It has a strong antioxidant and antibacterial effect and a non-greasy texture. The vitamin K contained in thistle oil also supports the treatment of sensitive skin and skin prone to telangiectasia (red veins) and couperose.
WHEAT GERM OIL
Wheat germ oil is extracted from the germ of wheat. It contains 60% polyunsaturated fatty acids, of which almost 90% are valuable omega 3 fatty acids. It is one of the vegetable oils with the highest content of tocopherols (vitamin E), as well as phospholipids, phytosterols and carotenoids, making it ideal for the care of mature, barrier-damaged and pale skin with poor circulation. In addition to a strong antioxidant effect, wheat germ oil promotes circulation and the elasticity of the skin, strengthens the natural protective barrier and reduces transepidermal water loss. It is absorbed very deeply and slowly into the skin, has a strong moisturizing effect and forms a protective film on the skin that prevents it from drying out. Sensitive, damaged skin or allergic skin reactions are also soothed and regenerated.
