Youth Molecules: Repair stimulating lipids to protect the skin cells against oxidative stress; the repair enzyme telomerase remains active and premature telomere degeneration is prevented; the skin is restructured, the density of the dermis increased and wrinkles smoothed.
An in vitro study revealed the following results:
- Collagen synthesis: + 483%
- Hyaluronic acid: + 35%
- Protection of cells against oxidative stress: + 34%
- Protection of mitochondria and cell nuclei against oxidative stress: + 76%
- Stops telomere shortening: + 21%
A 2% solution of the lipids was applied onto a group of 15 female volunteers 2x per day. The thickness
of the epidermis and dermis was then measured ultrasonically:
Skin thickness: + 7.5% after 2 months
28 female volunteers each used a cream with 2% lipids at the corner of the eyes in comparison with a
placebo 2x per day. The complexion was then examined by means of an impression and image
analysis:
- Volume of wrinkles after 1 month - 26%
- Depth of wrinkles after 1 month - 21%
Rice Extract: Highly-active peptide extract from Oryza Sativa; activates the release of sirtuin in
the skin. Sirtuins, also referred to as longevity proteins, help to repair cell damage, strengthen
the cells' defenses and prolong their lives.
In vitro studies with 1% rice extract:
- Cell repair is promoted: - 22% DNA damage
- The skin cells live longer: + 17% longer keratinocyte lifetime
+ 10% fibroblasts (connective tissue cells)
Long- and short-chain hyaluronic acid: Produced using biotechnology, it possesses a fill-in
effect which "pads out" the skin from the inside out. The skin is lifted extensively.
Genuine Japanese Silk: Possesses a structure similar to that of the skin, is rapidly absorbed,
protects against dehydration, leaves the skin supple and soft.
Saccharide Isomerate: Sustainably improves the skin's moisture retention capacity, as this
combination of various sugar compounds binds firmly to the surface of the skin and is not rinsed
off during washing. Saccharide Isomerate prevents moisture loss – even under dry
environmental conditions
Isostearyl-Isostearate: emollient based on sustainable raw plant materials; improves the
cohesion of the lipids in the horny layer (Stratum corneum) and reduces the skin's transepidermal water loss
Vitamin E Acetate: Radical scavenger, preventive cell protection, combats premature skin aging
