Main active ingredients
Acetyl hexapeptide-8
Properties and benefits of acetyl hexapeptide-8:
This is a powerful anti-aging and anti-wrinkle peptide, specifically designed to reduce expression lines on the forehead, smile and sides of the eyes. Its results are reminiscent of the properties of Botox, the best part being that it is easy to apply and use as needed.
Acetyl hexapeptide 8 is a neuropeptide. It doesn’t let the brain’s message get through to the facial muscles and allows it to relax. This limits the movement of the muscles and at the same time reduces wrinkles and fine lines.
Argireline also acts as a moisture booster, making it a complete skin care product suitable for all skin types, even dry or sensitive.
Peptides stimulate collagen production and reinforce elasticity.
Humectant : Maintains the water content of a cosmetic in its packaging and on the skin.
Skin care agent: Keeps the skin in good condition.
Allantoin
Allantoin is a nitrogenous chemical compound discovered by Louis-Nicolas Vauquelin
Among plants, it is found in the roots of comfrey.
PROPERTIES AND BENEFITS OF ALLANTOIN:
As a cosmetic ingredient, the active cosmetic allantoin is recognized for these properties:
-> Active repairerparexcellence: it regenerates the tissues and helps in the acclimatization.
-> Hydrating: it maintains the cutaneous hydrolipidic film.
-> Calms irritations: anti-inflammatory, it soothes irritations and light wounds (razor burn, depilation, skin attacked by the sun, laser, cracked hands and feet).
-> Emollient and softening.
Heteroside Centella Asiatica Extract /(Asiaticoside & Madecassoside)
Properties and benefits of Heteroside Centella Asiatica Extract :
An anti-aging action to fight against wrinkles:
With age, collagen production decreases: your skin loses its suppleness and the first wrinkles appear. To boost the production of collagen, Tiger Herb is your best ally.
It acts directly on its production and increases its quality thanks to two active ingredients: saponosides and triterpenes. Result, you find a plumped up skin, the wrinkles and fine lines are smoothed and the complexion is luminous.
Repairing virtues to regenerate the skin:
Able to accelerate the repair of fabrics, the Herb of the Tiger makes the happiness of the damaged skins. It is able to stimulate cellular regeneration to repair old lesions: the scars are attenuated and the skin finds all its resistance. Thanks to its flavonoid content, centella fights against cellulite, eliminating toxins and liquids that accumulate under the skin.
A high content of antioxidants to prevent skin aging
Naturally rich in antioxidants, Centella Asiatica acts on free radicals by reducing their production. These molecules accelerate skin aging and promote the appearance of signs of aging. The wrinkles and the tasks are attenuated and the skin is strengthened!
Hyaluronic acid
Hyaluronic acid is a glycosaminoglycan, a high molecular weight polysaccharide formed by a linear chain of disaccharide units of glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine.
Properties and benefits of hyaluronic acid:
Hyaluronic acid is an important molecule for the youth and beauty of the skin. It acts as a moisturizing, firming, anti-wrinkle, regenerating and redensifying agent. It is constantly renewed, but with age, the synthesis is slower, less good and less abundant, resulting in a decrease of the natural capital. It is estimated that at age 50, the epidermis contains only 50% of its initial capital. Hence the interest in adding to one’s beauty routine skin care products containing this unstoppable ingredient, regardless of age. Its main properties :
HYDRATANT/HYGROSCOPIC: retains water in the tissues. Hyaluronic acid can absorb up to 1000 times its weight in water.
FILMOGEN: high molecular weight hyaluronic acid forms a film on the surface of the skin, thus giving the impression of filling in fine lines.
REPULPANT: low molecular weight hyaluronic acid penetrates the epidermis where it absorbs water.
Acide lactique
Lactic acid is a member of the fruit acid family. It is in fact an acid of natural origin, extracted from the sugar contained in certain fruits (AHA). It can be obtained in two ways: either through a sugar fermentation process using Lactobacillus bacteria or it can also be made synthetically.
Properties and benefits of lactic acid :
First of all, it acts as a humectant and pH regulator, allowing to inhibit the growth of other micro-organisms foreign to the skin.
It is an ingredient that also gently exfoliates all dead skin cells, but does not attack sensitive skin because it acts gently. This will reveal a new skin underneath.
Lactic acid also regulates the horny layer of the epidermis, interacting with keratin. This gives it a slight exfoliating effect: the stratum corneum becomes thinner and more supple, ideal in the case of all types of imperfections: whether it is impure skin, acne, psoriasis problems and keratinization disorders.
It stimulates the synthesis of collagen. Collagen, this natural protein, present in our body which ensures the cohesion, the elasticity and the regeneration of our fabrics in order to maintain them firm and tonic.
Lastly, it favors a good hydration of the skin.
Lactose
Lactose is the main sugar (or carbohydrate) naturally present in milk and dairy products. Lactose is made up of glucose and galactose, two simple sugars that are used directly by our bodies as a source of energy. Lactase, an enzyme, splits lactose into glucose and galactose.
Properties and benefits of lactic acid:
This ingredient has several functions, the most common are:
Skin care agent: its role is to keep the skin in good condition.
Lactose is used as an excipient in cosmetics to help maintain or restore the hydrolipidic film around the epidermis. This film, slightly acid, protects our body from external aggressions.
Humectant: its role is to maintain moisture in the product throughout its use.
Glyceryl Acrylate/Acrylic Acid Copolymer
Properties and benefits of Glyceryl Acrylate :
Acrylates are substances of synthetic origin that, depending on their form, have different functions. They are widely used for their adhesive properties.
It is a polymer composed of carbomer and glycerine.
This ingredient forms a hydrogel film by delivering moisturizing and water-soluble ingredients such as glycerin to the skin.
Blowing agents, to thicken and increase the viscosity of many products
Film-forming agent: Produces a continuous film on the skin, hair or nails
Unlike carbomer, which can be considered dangerous because it is absorbed by the skin, this polymer, having a larger molecular size, does not penetrate the epidermis, providing hydration to the outermost layer of the dermis.
It also acts as a thickening agent and can provide a pleasant slippery feel to the skin.
It can also attract water to the skin providing hydration to the skin.
Niacinamide
Niacinamide is a water-soluble vitamin of the B group, it is composed of nicotinic acid (niacin) and its amide, nicotinamide. Vitamins in general are antioxidant and therefore anti-aging and anti-inflammation, but this one is particularly versatile.
Properties and benefits of niacinamide :
Anti-inflammatory: Niacinamide has been identified as an effective treatment for various inflammatory skin conditions.
Reduces pores: By improving the elasticity and texture of the skin and limiting the production of sebum (responsible for pore clogging, among other things), vitamin B3 reduces the size of dilated pores.
Against the rednesses: By decreasing the ignition, the active ingredient has an impact on the reduction of the rednesses related, in particular, to the acne or the eczema.
Anti-wrinkle: By boosting the production and the quality of collagen in the dermis, it improves the firmness and the texture of the skin which marks less the signs of the age.
Anti-oxidant: It protects the skin from oxidative stress caused by toxins and external agents.
Anti-spot: The application of nicotinamide-based care products is effective in lightening pigmentary spots, results linked to the increase in collagen production induced by the active ingredient.
Whey Protein / Whey Peptides
Bioactive milk peptides are found in all milk proteins, whether caseins or the major (β-lactoglobulin, α-lactalbumin) or minor (lactoferrin) fractions of soluble milk proteins. Peptides are the building blocks of protein production in your body. When amino acids bind to each other, they form chains called peptides. Once these peptides are formed, they come together to create proteins.
They have a powerful cellular activity preserving the quality and youthfulness of the epidermis.
Properties and benefits of Whey Protein / Whey Peptides :
Skin maintenance agent, Skin protection agent, Hair conditioner, antioxidant, anti-aging Humectant…
Regenerating: By promoting collagen production, some polymers improve the regeneration of the extracellular matrix.
Moisturizing : Keratin-based peptides by improving skin moisture and elasticity levels promote hair and epidermal repair.
Brightening: Peptides are often used for their depigmenting activity.
Some have the ability to block the synthesis of melanin (responsible for skin pigmentation), they slow down the formation of pigmentation spots and can fade them.
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12, also known as cobalamin, is a water-soluble vitamin that plays an important role in the hematological and nervous systems and has a complex relationship with the skin. Alterations in cobalamin levels can lead to dermatological manifestations, which may indicate a deficiency or excess of this vitamin.
A retrospective and prospective study of 63 individuals with vitamin B12 deficiency showed that 41% had skin and mucosal changes, with glossitis in 31%, hyperpigmentation in 19%, ankle changes in 9%, angular stomatitis in 8% and vitiligo in 3%. Vitamin B12 plays an important role for the skin and various skin findings are associated with cobalamin deficiency.
PROPERTIES AND BENEFITS OF VITAMIN B12:
-> Topical cobalamin has shown promise as a safe treatment for atopic dermatitis.
-> Vitamin B12 helps regulate pigment production in the skin, helping to prevent dark spots and pigmentation (see photo). It boosts the metabolism and detoxifies it while firming the skin.
-> Vitamin B12 improves the quality of the skin, especially the complexion. This vitamin is also a powerful antioxidant that makes the skin less oily and controls the appearance of dandruff.
Hydrolyzed wheat proteine
Hydrolyzed wheat proteins are used in cosmetics as a plant conditioner, humectant and antistatic. They are mainly found in hair care products and shampoos. The composition of these proteins is close to that of keratin.
Properties and benefits of hydrolyzed wheat proteins:
Particularly interesting in natural cosmetics, hydrolyzed wheat proteins are an excellent alternative to animal keratin with the same conditioning properties on hair and skin.
Moisturizing, protective and conditioning, they are often used in the composition of hair care products for their softening and repairing effects on the fiber.
It is indeed one of the rare ingredients able to really act on the structure of the hair fiber. Having a strong affinity with the hair’s keratin, hydrolyzed wheat proteins bind to the hair, « filling in » damaged areas and smoothing the scales. The effect on shine and softness is therefore very noticeable.
On the skin, hydrolyzed wheat proteins have a long-lasting moisturizing and protective effect.
