BEHIND THE SCIENCE:

4-n-butyl resorcinol

Hyperpigmentary disorders like melasma, actinic, and senile lentigines are a major cosmetic concern. Therefore, many topical products are available, containing various active ingredients aiming to reduce melanin production and distribution. The present in vitro and in vivo data prove the high inhibitory capacity of 4-n-butyl resorcinol on human tyrosinase activity, exceeding by far the potency of hydroquinone, arbutin, and kojic acid. The resulting clinical improvement of skin hyperpigmentations reveals 4-n-butyl resorcinol as a very valuable active compound for the management of pigmentation disorders.

Ascorbyl Glucoside

L-ascorbic acid, the pure form of vitamin C, has many benefits for our skin. It's the primary antioxidant and plays a big role in collagen synthesis. Unfortunately, pure vit. C is extremely unstable, especially in water-based or high-pH solutions. It oxidizes quickly and can be irritating to the skin. Low pH (below 3.5pH) or waterless formulation helps to stabilize Vit C. Protecting the formula from air and light is also important, so the best is airless packaging. Even with all these tricks an active Vit C serum can be used usually only three months after opening it. Ascorbyl glucoside is a derivative of L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C). But unlike regular vitamin C, which can sometimes irritate the skin, ascorbyl glucoside is much more gentle. It may not be as potent compared to L-ascorbic acid, but it's stable in the formulation and not irritating to the skin.

Ascorbyl glucoside shows all anti-aging properties of vitamin C - antioxidant, collagen booster, and skin brightener. It is stable and can penetrate the skin. In-vitro studies show that after ascorbyl glucoside is absorbed into the skin it is converted to pure vitamin C. Ascorbyl glucoside is one of the best and most effective vitamin C derivatives.

Hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid is a linear polysaccharide of high molecular weight, naturally occurring in the human body. It is applied here as a connective tissue organizer and hydrating substance on the basis of its status as the most hydrating polymer known. The enormous water-binding capacity of hyaluronan is an essential characteristic. It is a naturally occurring substance. Hyaluronic acid is a non-toxic and non-irritating substance.

Skin hydration is the cornerstone of the anti-aging concept for the reason that adequate water content is essential for the proper functioning of all of the human body's structures. Hyaluronic acid influences the formation of a film on the skin's surface, a product of the physicochemical properties of hyaluronan. This film hydrates the surface of the skin and prevents water loss. Optimal hydration helps to maintain the epidermal barrier function and contributes to suitable conditions for the cells of the epidermis and dermis. Cell stress is reduced. Very low molecular weight hyaluronic acid is able to reach even the lowest layers of the skin which brings a new possibility of rejuvenation:

• Reduces wrinkles and stabilizes skin structure
• Helps to smooth the skin texture
• Keeps hydrating properties of a standard hyaluronic acid
• Restores normal thickness of aging or atrophic skin.
• Has a fundamental influence on the biological activity of the cells.
• Stimulates production of the body's own endogenous hyaluronic acid and collagen.

3. Bioinspired antioxidant that protects biomolecules and cellular functions from oxidative stress damage and may aid in skin detoxification. As a result, it may help to reduce signs of aging and improve the skin's appearance. Provides antioxidant shelter and promotes complete detox To prevent premature aging caused by oxidative stress and environmental pollution, cells rely on endogenous defence systems. Reactive species can be neutralized by antioxidants or detoxified by a wide array of enzymes. The antioxidant molecule is a-tocopherol analogue that can capture reactive species and provide a detoxifying effect. When applied to the skin, antioxidative properties and parameters associated with aging were improved, while depigmenting activity was also boosted.
4. Phytosphingosine is an active lipid, naturally found in high levels in the Stratum Corneum and it is a part of the skin's natural defence system. Recently performed in vitro and in vivo studies confirm the biological role Phytosphingosine has as a natural anti-inflammatory agent. Phytosphingosine effectively inhibited the activity of the inflammatory cytokine interleukin 1a. It can be concluded that it revealed significant protective properties that are relevant for skin anti-inflammatory claims.

Benefits:

• Naturally present in the skin
• Effectively reduces the signs of acne
• Inhibits the growth of microorganisms on the skin
• Reduces redness and inflamed skin

*How to do a patch test:

1. Apply a small amount of the product to a small area of skin on your face, such as along your jaw or behind your ear.
2. Leave the area alone for 24 to 48 hours.
3. Check for any adverse reactions, including itchiness, inflammation, or other Irritation.

If you don't notice any side effects, you can go ahead and use it on the rest of your face.
