Complex based on Bean, Rutin and a Biomimetic Peptide: Bean and rutin extracts work synergistically to antagonize the activated inflammatory cells responsible for the type of tissue deterioration that leads to stretch marks. Biomimetic peptides stimulate repair of the damaged extracellular matrix. Thus the complex helps to both smooth skin texture and thicken the dermis. Both the rough appearance and the colour of stretch-marked skin are improved.
Vegetable oil complex for stretch marks: This complex of fermented vegetable oils is obtained through the enzyme activation of a number of oils: olive, borage, flaxseed and almond oil. This activation technology breaks down triglycerides into constituent molecules (fatty acids and glycerides), thus creating a brand new phytocomplex.
Fermentation helps improve the fatty acid profile of these oils to increase their anti-inflammatory properties. This complex has an effect on the different causes of the formation of red stretch marks and prevents their appearance. The skin’s colour and microrelief are improved.
Black Crowberries juice: Black crowberry is a shrub native to Lapland whose berries are rich in polyphenols, molecules with significant antioxidant properties. Black crowberry juice slows down the skin’s aging process by limiting the activity of elastase and collagenase, the enzymes that cause elastin and collagen to deteriorate. In this way, this ingredient improves skin tone and firmness. It also acts on microcirculation and prevents wrinkle formation.
Rhamnose: This active ingredient is a polysaccharide obtained by bacterial fermentation. It has a soothing effect that helps attenuate the skin’s inflammatory reactions following exposure to sun, pollution or chemical agents. Its rhamnose-rich structure enables it to limit propagation of cell messages cause by inflammation. It acts as a decoy, binding to the membrane receptors of the attacked keratinocytes, thereby reducing subsequent inflammatory reactions. In addition, it combines protection with well-being by stimulating the release of endorphins, the molecules responsible for pleasure.
Complex of Arnica Flowers, Solomon’s Seal and Cypress Cones: This complex is made from arnica flower, solomon’s seal and cypress cone extracts, which are respectively known for their stimulating, vasoconstrictive and draining properties. In this complex, these three active ingredients work together to improve vein tone and firmness, and to activate microcirculation in the blood. As a result, redness is reduced and the skin is more radiant.
