ACTIVE INGREDIENTS
ORGANIC SHEA BUTTER (BUTYROSPERMUM PARKII BUTTER*): Shea butter is one of the most interesting vegetable lipids in the cosmetics field. Not only does it make the cream a pleasure to apply and give it good stability, it also plays a protective and soothing role on the skin.
UNSAPONIFIABLE PART OF OLIVE OIL (OLEA EUROPAEA OIL UNSAPONIFIABLES): The unsaponifiable part of olive oil is exceptionally rich in squalene (one of the principal components of sebum). Because of its affinity with the composition of sebum physiologically present on the stratum corneum layer, the unsaponifiable part of olive oil has a notable soothing role.
HYALURONIC ACID (SODIUM HYALURONATE): Hyaluronic acid is a physiological component of the extracellular matrix of the skin’s connective tissue. As well as having a supporting and plumping function, it also serves as a water reserve for the skin, retaining enormous quantities of water.
For this function as a ‘biological sponge’, it absorbs impact and maintains the skin’s structure, thanks also to the electrostatic interactions with the collagen fibres, the matrix proteins and other GAGs.
The quantity of hyaluronic acid in the skin decreases with age. This contributes to the formation of wrinkles, to a decrease in elasticity, the thinning and drying of the skin: all typical factors of ageing. The hyaluronic acid used in cosmetics is produced though fermentation, and this guarantees that the biological extract is completely free of contaminants such as glycosaminoglycans and animal proteins. The topical action of hyaluronic acid develops with the formation of a non-sticky hydrated film, permeable to air and light, with a tensor effect. The skin around the eye contours thus gains elasticity and flexibility.
ORGANIC BEESWAX (CERA ALBA*): Beeswax has softening properties and leaves a film on the skin; it is used in the treatment of dry and irritated skin, characterised by a layer of insufficient hydrolipids. Beeswax contributes to reconstituting the lipids naturally present on the stratum corneum layer, helping the skin regain its physiological barrier function.
ORGANIC ALOE JUICE (ALOE BARBADENSIS LEAF JUICE*): Aloe juice has a beneficial soothing and refreshing role.
POTASSIUM AZELOYL DIGLYCINATE: A water soluble derivative of azelaic acid which maintains the same cosmetic properties of the original molecule. Azelaic acid inhibits the action of tyrosinase, the enzyme involved in the formation of melanin.
ORGANIC JOJOBA OIL (SIMMONDSIA CHINENSIS OIL*): Jojoba oil has a soothing and protective role.
ORGANIC WITCH HAZEL EXTRACT (HAMAMELIS VIRGINIANA EXTRACT*): Witch hazel extract is particularly advisable in products for sensitive skin.
BUTCHER’S BROOM EXTRACT (RUSCUS ACULEATUS EXTRACT): Butcher’s broom extract has a toning and vasoprotective function, thanks to the presence of tannins and saponins.
GINSENG EXTRACT (PANAX GINSENG EXTRACT): Ginseng extract has a toning, revitalising and strengthening role. For stronger, denser and brighter skin around the eyes.
CENTELLA ASIATICA EXTRACT: Centella asiatica is noted for its restructuring and toning properties.
VITAMIN E (TOCOPHEROL): Vitamin E, thanks to its antioxidising powers, has a protective action on the lipids in the cell membranes targeted by free radicals. It is useful in fighting against the formation of fine lines and damage from the sun-ageing the skin.
PANTHENOL OR PRO-VITAMIN B5: Panthenol is the provitamin (or the precursor) of vitamin B5 (or pantothenic acid). The latter has an important role in cell renewal, and contributes to performing a hydrating action on the skin.
