Vitamin C
This powerful vitamin is essential for collagen synthesis, which gives the skin its firmness and elasticity. Vitamin C also has powerful antioxidant properties that protect the skin from premature aging (loss of firmness, wrinkles, fine lines, dull and uneven complexion, etc.) by neutralizing free radicals caused by the sun, pollution, stress, smoking, etc. Vitamin C stimulates cell renewal, regenerating the skin and making it smoother and more radiant. It is also known for its anti-dark spot action and brightening power, which restores radiance to dull and tired complexions. For this cream, we have chosen a naturally sourced vitamin C in the form of a glucoside derivative (combined with a sugar), which gives it optimal stability and ensures that the cream's high concentration of vitamin C is maintained over time, thereby guaranteeing its effectiveness. Vitamin C enables the cream to improve the complexion's radiance.
Astaxanthin
Extracted from a microalgae, Haematococcus pluvialis, astaxanthin belongs to the carotenoid family and has unrivalled antioxidant properties. Its antioxidant protection is: 1,500 times greater than curcumin, 770 times greater than coenzyme Q10, and 100 times greater than vitamin E. Its lipophilic and hydrophilic structure provides comprehensive protection for skin cell membranes, offering complete antioxidant protection. It is the perfect ally for combating the effects of aging, sun exposure, UV rays, and tobacco, and for protecting the skin from the effects of oxidative stress. This microalgae is cultivated in closed bioreactors (glass tubes) in Austria, in a production facility that operates to the highest quality standards, notably by using 100% electricity from renewable sources. Astaxanthin is extracted from the algae using supercritical CO2 extraction, an eco-friendly technology that does not use any chemical solvents and produces a very high-purity active ingredient. The CO2 used comes from 100% biogenic sources and is completely recycled in the process. Astaxanthin enhances the antioxidant action of the cream.
Mate extract
Rich in caffeine, rutin, and caffeoylquinic acids, this upcycled active ingredient energizes and oxygenates the skin. It stimulates microcirculation and reduces redness for an even, more radiant complexion. This extract also improves the skin's hydration, firmness, and elasticity for healthy aging. It is this ingredient that allows the cream to bring radiance to the skin.
Pomegranate extract
A powerful antioxidant, its anti-free radical action combats the effects of UV rays, stress, and pollution and prevents the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. Its high concentration of punicic acid also gives it soothing properties. It gives the cream its anti-aging properties.
Hyaluronic acid
100% natural, vegan and produced by wheat fermentation, hyaluronic acid is a powerful moisturizing, plumping and anti-wrinkle active ingredient. It gives the cream its anti-wrinkle properties.
