Lipopeptide(Anti-gravity): This molecule, made up of a peptide bound to a lipophilic chain, stimulates the synthesis of elastin by the fibroblasts and restores the 3D configuration of elastic fibers. The elastin produced forms functional fibers that enable the skin to regain its elasticity and density. It helps improve the skin’s viscoelasticity and increase resistance to gravity-induced deformation.
Matrixial Lipopeptide: This lipopeptide, a fragment of immunoglobulin G (immunity against the invasion of pathogens), regulates the secretion of the cytokines (Interleukin 6) that cause many signs of aging. It stimulates synthesis of collagen 1, fibronectin and hyaluronic acid to enhance cutaneous density and tone. Skin looks smoother and is firmer and more elastic. Day after day, the skin barrier becomes stronger and the skin more resistant.
Marine Coral Plant Extract: This extract comes from a calcifying red alga native to rocky coasts. Rich in calcium carbonate, it activates the release of leptin, an appetite suppressing molecule secreted by adipocytes in order to limit lipogenesis (fat storage) and promote lipolysis (fat breakdown) to reduce the thickness of the adipose tissue. It is accompanied by stimulation of the synthesis of the support fibers, acting on cellulite while restructuring the skin barrier for visibly firmer and more toned skin.
Reconstituted Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF): A water-soluble and hygroscopic intracellular substance, NMF is naturally present in the corneocytes, within the epidermis. Reconstituted NMFs have a close affinity with water, helping to capture it and guarantee the effective hydration of the upper layers of the epidermis. They are made up of pyrrolidone carboxylic acid (in the form of sodium salt), amino acids, lactates, urea, and a variety of sugars. They respond to the needs of dry, dehydrated, and/or mature skin.
Moisturizing Plant Sugars: This sugar derivative, resulting from the combination of xylitol and glucose, optimizes water reserves by increasing the skin’s glycosaminoglycans content (hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate). It also helps reduce Transepidermal Water Loss (TEWL) by promoting the synthesis of lipids (ceramides, cholesterol) and key proteins in the skin barrier (keratin, loricrin). Thanks to this sugar derivative, desquamation is regulated and the micro relief is smoother. The skin is more resistant to damage as it is moisturized and restructured.
Shea Butter: Shea butter is extracted from the fruits of the shea tree, which grows in the savannas of West Africa. Rich in unsaponifiable fatty acids and vitamins, it has remarkable lipid-replenishing properties and skin absorbs it easily. It strengthens the skin’s hydrolipidic film to protect it against dryness caused by climatic stress. Its anti-inflammatory properties combined with its nourishing effect soothe and repair the driest and most irritated areas (scars, eczema, psoriasis, chapping, etc.). This active ingredient provides a multitude of benefits and intensely nourishes the driest skin to provide immediate and lasting relief. It softens and smooths skin, countering the “crocodile skin” effect. Its nourishing properties also help preserve skin elasticity.
