Complex made from Hyaluronic Acidand Rhizobium: This complex consists of hyaluronic acid, a natural constituent of the dermis, and gel produced by rhizobium, a symbiotic bacterium in sunflowers. With its high molecular weight (>1 Mda),hyaluronic acid remains on the surface of the skin to enhance its barrier function against harsh external factors, and to keep water in the superficial layers of the epidermis. Combined with rhizobium gel, this complex helps create a supple and flexible protective film on the surface of the skin, which regulates perspiration. In addition, it acts as a water reservoir, restoring the skin’s water requirements to regulate its hydration and guarantee its structural integrity.
Moisturizing molecular film: This active ingredient, made from sugars and plant-derived peptides, creates a moisturizing, protective film on the skin’s surface and maintains the integrity of the epidermal extracellular matrix. It provides the skin with immediate, long-lasting hydration.
Oxygenating Complex specific to Biologique Recherche: Biologique Recherche’s oxygenating complex has exceptional oxygenating properties: ex vivo tests show that it stimulates cellular respiration via a nano-emulsion system which delivers Perfluorodecalin, a molecule known for its ability to transport oxygen (like hemoglobin in blood). These significant results highlight a direct “oxygen carrying/replenishing” effect. Cell oxygenation stimulates cellular activity in order to improve the skin’s hydration and barrier function.
Anti-Pollution Polysaccharide: The anti-pollution polysaccharide provides the skin and hair with a barrier against the 3 types of pollution: atmospheric (carbon particles, fine particles and heavy metals), UV, domestic (chemicals). It therefore limits intra and extra-cellular cutaneous damage caused by this pollution (oxidative stress, inflammation, cellular and mitochondrial toxicity, etc.), while also preventing the alteration of the hair fiber caused by pro-oxidant pollution.
Cotton stem cell: This active ingredient protects the skin against the harmful effects of urban pollutants such as UV radiation, atmospheric pollutants and heavy metals. Its considerable antioxidant activity helps limit the oxidative stress caused by urban pollution and preserve cell viability. It therefore prevents premature cutaneous aging while preserving the skin’s radiance. In addition, it helps reduce the cutaneous inflammation induced by UV radiation and heavy metal toxicity.
