Active Ingredients

Vitamin A (Retinol) used in the EU maximum permitted dose (0.3%), it is an extremely effective ‘cell-communicating’ active ingredient, which is able to connect to skin cell receptor sites and tell them to behave like healthy, younger skin cells. Vitamin A boosts cell turnover, peeling away top layers to even skin tone, thicken the new skin layers and effectively smooth out wrinkles. For all these reasons and its ability to regulate sebum, it shows superb results for even for more delicate skins, acneic skins and reduces the visibility of resulting scarring. Retinol is unstable so, we use Vitamin A Palmitate, a stabilised version with proven efficacy.

Matrixyl 3000 is a peptide with a powerful skin repairing effect, restores key skin proteins such as collagen and fibrilin, which are broken down during the ageing process and by UVA light. Matrixyl was the subject of a BBC Horizon programme in 2006 and proven to work. In this formula, together with retinol/vitamin A it works to lessen deeper wrinkles in the skin

Aroleat Samphira is an incredible active ingredient extracted from Rock Samphire (also known as Sea Fennel). It imitates the beneficial effects of Retinol, but without causing skin irritation. Vitamin A (Retinol) is well known to stimulate inflammation as it works, resulting in redness, flaking, irritation and tightness. Aroleat Samphira has been proven to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, even out the skin tone, regulate sebum and reduce inflammation. Used together with Vitamin A, Aroleat Samphira allows Vitamin A to provide its many skin benefits without the associated inflammation.

Mediacalm™ is an active ingredient from Boerhavia Diffusa Root. Thanks to its outstanding calming properties (clinically tested on freshly shaven skin), it restores softness to the skin and intense soothing, whilst stimulating the release of anti-irritant neuromediators in the skin.

Two different molecular weights of Hyaluronic Acid. Has the double effect of retaining moisture in the epidermis and dermis while also activating the skin’s own beta defensins, that help to prevent the microbial invasion that causes spots.

Squalane is a component of the skin’s natural lipid barrier. We use Squalane from Olive Oil origin. This gives a luxurious feel to skin while supporting and reinforcing the skin’s natural moisture barrier.
