Rose Hip extract: Rose hip is a thorny bush from the Rosaceae family. Its extract is rich in flavonoids. The extract of its berries limits sebocyte differentiation and lipogenesis to reduce sebaceous secretions and tighten pores. The skin is mattified, purified, and cleansed of its imperfections. It thus improves the appearance of oily skin.
Complex made of Enanthia Chlorantha and Oleanic Acid: Enantia Chlorantha is a tree commonly found in Equatorial Africa, while Oleanolic Acid, considered a bioactive molecule, is found in numerous plant species. The complementary combination of these two active ingredients helps deactivate sebocytes:-Oleanolic acid inhibits the formation of 5-dihydrotestosterone to deactivate the androgenic stimulation to which sebocytes are exposed,-Enantia protoberberines complement this action by inhibiting the growth of sebocytes and slowing down sebum secretion. Less stimulated and with fewer sebocytes, less engorged with sebum, the activity of sebaceous glands is curtailed: shine is reduced and the pores are visibly tightened.
