Intensive Cream anti-aging
Product Information:
This intensive anti-aging cream helps to increase skin density and to prevent breakdown of the dermis. Consequently it rejuvenates the appearance of your skin by reducing visible signs of aging such as lines and wrinkles. The cream contains the following potent active ingredients:
Tetrapeptide-21
Tetrapeptide-21 is an active peptide increasing collagen synthesis in skin. Because of its comparatively small size it can penetrate in deeper skin layers. The raised collagen content reduced wrinkles, increases elasticity and smoothes skin surface (Farwick et al., 2011, Experimental Dermatology, 20, 600–613). more....
Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7
Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 inhibits the expression of interleukine 6 (IL-6) being responsible for inflammatory processes in the skin. By reducing the IL-6 concentration in skin inflammation mediated degradation processes of the extracellular matrix are reduced. Skin aging is consequently slowed down. more....
Palmitoyl Oligopeptide
Palmitoyl Oligopeptide has the same structure as a certain substructure of collagen type I. Its effect is explained by an improved collagen synthesis based on a feedback regulation mechanism. more....
Vitamin A
Vitamin A is important for growth and development and for the maintenance of the immune system. It supports the growth of corneocytes and the synthesis of collagen. Due to an increased collagen content of the extracellular matrix skin firmness and elasticity is improved. Furthermore, regeneration of skin cells is improved. Consequently in the long term wrinkles are reduced.
Coenzyme Q10
Coenzyme Q10 also known as ubiquinone is a vitamin-like substance stimulating energy production in skin cells. It is a free radical scavenger providing a protective effect towards degradation processes being mediated by such radicals. The body's own production of Coenzyme Q10, however, decreases already from the age of 20 onwards. The use of cosmetic products containing Coenzyme Q10 can partially compensate that. In the long term skin aging can be slowed down.
Panthenol
D-Panthenol is a provitamin of vitamin B5. It improves skin hydration, reduces itching and inflammation of the skin and accelerates and improves wound healing. Because of these properties it is used in many pharmaceutical creams.
Bisabolol
Bisabolol is the anti-inflammatory lead component of chamomile oil. In addition, it has wound healing properties.
Vitamin E
Vitamin E (tocopherol) is a component of all cell membranes. It has many biological functions, the antioxidant function being the most important. It protects unsaturated fatty acids of membrane lipids, lipoproteins and fats towards degradation by oxidation. Furthermore, vitamin E exhibits pronounced free radical scavenger properties providing a protective effect towards degradation processes being mediated by such radicals.
Shea Butter
Shea butter contains many unsaturated fatty acid and phytosterines. They are incorporated in the lipid layer of the skin improving the protective lipid coat of the skin and skin barrier function.
Jojoba Oil
Jojoba oil is a liquid wax and therefore very similar to human sebum. In contrast to fatty oils it cannot be degraded by lipases. It spreads easily over the stratum corneum, remains there comparatively longer and improves elasticity. Furthermore, it improves the protective lipid coat of the skin without being occlusive.
Because of the combination of these active ingredients a 3-fold effect is achieved:
- more moisture
- improved firmness
- less wrinkles
Tolerability:
This intensive cream is free from PEG, PEGylated emulsifying agents, paraffins, sodium dedecyl sulfate and parabens. It is non-comedogenic.
How to Use:
Apply in the morning and/or in the evening to a cleansed face.
