Apple, grape and alpine rose stem cells, platinum, Lipomoist, Serilesine, Eyeseryl, panthenol, allantoin, almond oil
Apple – PhytoCellTec ™ Malus Domestica. Stem cells extracted from the rare Swiss Uttwiler Spaetlauber apple. This variety of apple is known for its unusually long storage life. By means of a special process, it is now possible to exploit the longevity factors in this apple for use in cosmetics.
• Boosts the vitality and lifespan of skin stem cells
• Delays the onset of biological cell aging
• Accelerates regeneration
Grape – PhytoCellTec™ Solar Vitis. Stem cells extracted from the extremely UV-resistant Burgundy grape “Gamay Teinturier Fréaux”. This active substance is particularly interesting since UV radiation is responsible for facial skin aging by up to about 80%.
• Boosts the vitality and lifespan of skin stem cells
• Increases the skin’s resistance to UV rays
• Protects against light-induced skin aging and UV stress
• Stimulates the skin’s own cell renewal mechanism
Alpine Rose – PhytoCellTec™ Alpine Rose. Stem cells extracted from the robust Swiss alpine rose. The dehydrin proteins found in the evergreen leaves of the alpine rose, which grows at altitudes of up to 3,200 m, make this plant exceptionally resistant to UV radiation and extreme cold.
• Boosts the vitality and lifespan of skin stem cells
• Strengthens the skin barrier
• Protects against climatic stress
Platinum (Platinum Matrix-EM). This deep-acting, anti-aging active substance stimulates collagen I and III synthesis. It improves the elasticity and hydration of the skin and brings about an intensive reduction in wrinkles.
Lipomoist. This extract of red algae has a stabilising effect on the elastin structure in the skin, leaving it plumper and fresher in appearance. Lipomoist is a highly-effective moisture factor with a constant delayed-action effect for lasting 24-hr skin hydration.
Serilesine (hexapeptide 10). An active substance which has re-sculpturing and skin-firming properties. It increases density in slack skin, restoring tightness and firmness. Serilesine enhances cellular adhesion and promotes the connection between the dermis and the epidermis. This increased contact between the cells guarantees an improvement in the supply of nutrients to the skin. Skin density is boosted and the skin appears youthfully full.
Eyeseryl™ (Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5). This peptide has a draining effect and has been shown to reduce tear sacs in only 15 days. It smoothes the eye area and minimises dark circles. Eyeseryl ™ prevents collagen from cross linking (glycation), one of the main causes of tear sacs. In the sensitive eye area elasticity is increased by around 30%. Eyeseryl™ has a stimulating and rejuvenating effect on the eye area, which has a tendency towards slackness with age.
Panthenol. D-Panthenol (Pro Vitamin B5) is a water-soluble vitamin of the B complex and a component of co-enzyme A. It is present in all living cells. Pro vitamin D-Panthenol has good moisture retaining properties and promotes skin regeneration.
Allantoin. Allantoin is a derivative of urea and is extracted from beetroot, the roots of black salsify and comfrey, horse chestnut bark, maple, wheat germ and rice.
Almond Oil. As a cosmetic ingredient almond oil is esteemed above all for its mildness. From baby’s skin to problem skin it serves as a basis or as an additive in cosmetics. Almonds contain vital substances such as the Vitamins A, B1 and B6. The mineral content is also generous: magnesium, potassium, calcium, phosphor, sulphur, iron, zinc, copper, manganese, fluoride and even traces of iodine are to be found.
