Active Ingredients

Apple – PhytoCellTec ™ Malus Domestica. Stem cells extracted from the rare Swiss Uttwiler Spaetlauber apple. This variety of apple is known for its unusually long storage life. By means of a special process, it is now possible to exploit the longevity factors in this apple for use in cosmetics.
• Boosts the vitality and lifespan of skin stem cells
• Delays the onset of biological cell aging
• Accelerates regeneration

Grape – PhytoCellTec™ Solar Vitis. Stem cells extracted from the extremely UV-resistant Burgundy grape “Gamay Teinturier Fréaux”. This active substance is particularly interesting since UV radiation is responsible for facial skin aging by up to about 80%.
• Boosts the vitality and lifespan of skin stem cells
• Increases the skin’s resistance to UV rays
• Protects against light-induced skin aging and UV stress
• Stimulates the skin’s own cell renewal mechanism

Alpine Rose – PhytoCellTec™ Alpine Rose. Stem cells extracted from the robust Swiss alpine rose. The dehydrin proteins found in the evergreen leaves of the alpine rose, which grows at altitudes of up to 3,200 m, make this plant exceptionally resistant to UV radiation and extreme cold.
• Boosts the vitality and lifespan of skin stem cells
• Strengthens the skin barrier
• Protects against climatic stress

Platinum (Platinum Matrix-EM). This deep-acting, anti-aging active substance stimulates collagen I and III synthesis. It improves the elasticity and hydration of the skin and brings about an intensive reduction in wrinkles.

Gatuline Expression – (Acmella Oleracea). The active ingredient Gatulene Expression is a plant-derived substance extracted from para cress. Indigenous to Brazil and Peru, this small medicinal plant targets and relaxes facial features thus leaving wrinkles looking noticeably smoother. Spilanthol reduces the intensity of muscle contractions, which minimizes mimicry lines. It is an effective alternative to botox injections.

Spring Sea Water. This pure, clear seawater comes from a natural reservoir on the Côte de Granit Rose in Brittany. Surround by granite formations and filtered through a thick layer of sand, it contains valuable minerals and trace elements. Sodium and potassium ions are eliminated by means of electro dialysis. The mineral content of seawater is almost identical to that of blood serum (e.g. zinc, magnesium and calcium). Its structure enables optimum absorption into the skin. Seawater improves the dermo-epidermal connection. This firms the skin and increases its water-binding capacity.

DNA Repair Complex. This complex increases DNA repair activity and protects against UV-induced skin damage. It regenerates the DNA of the cells and protects them from environmental and UV stress.

Lipomoist. This extract of red algae has a stabilising effect on the elastin structure in the skin, leaving it plumper and fresher in appearance. Lipomoist is a highly-effective moisture factor with a constant delayed-action effect for lasting 24-hr skin hydration.

Serilesine (hexapeptide 10). An active substance which has re-sculpturing and skin-firming properties. It increases density in slack skin, restoring tightness and firmness. Serilesine enhances cellular adhesion and promotes the connection between the dermis and the epidermis. This increased contact between the cells guarantees an improvement in the supply of nutrients to the skin. Skin density is boosted and the skin appears youthfully full.

Pearl Extract. Pearls not only look beautiful, they also make us beautiful owing to their anti-aging properties. They provide the skin with minerals and vital proteins, which the body produces less of as it ages. As a finely ground extract, pearls stimulate the blood circulation, give tired skin a fresh-looking shimmer and leave the skin looking more finely pored.

Grape seed oil. Is a valuable cold-pressed oil extracted from grape pips. Grape seed oil is considered to be an oil with exceedingly antioxidative and cell-membrane protecting properties owing to the content of polyphenols (including the very effective procyanidin). It contains approximately 90% unsaturated fatty acids and around 70% essential linoleic acid. Further active substances are Vitamins A, C and E, as well as minerals and trace elements.

Almond Oil. As a cosmetic ingredient almond oil is esteemed above all for its mildness. From baby’s skin to problem skin it serves as a basis or as an additive in cosmetics. Almonds contain vital substances such as the Vitamins A, B1 and B6. The mineral content is also generous: magnesium, potassium, calcium, phosphor, sulphur, iron, zinc, copper, manganese, fluoride and even traces of iodine are to be found.

Shea butter (Butyrospermum parkii). Shea butter, also known as “beurre de karité”, is extracted from the seeds of the shea nut, the fruit of the tree, which have a 45-60% fat content.
Effect:
• Shea butter is an excellent natural fat with protecting and nourishing properties.
• It is a semi-solid wax with non-spreading properties and does not leave a greasy shine on the skin.
• Shea butter provides natural sun protection of factor 3.
