Ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate (vitamin C) easily penetrates through the corneal layer and acts as an antioxidant. Also, it boosts natural collagen production and promotes wound healing. The component does not irritate the skin. Vitamin C nurtures and brightens the skin, helps reduce the signs of capillary fragility, protects hyaluronic acid from degradation and provides the skin with radiant glow.

Ascorbyl glucoside is a stabilized form of vitamin C. The component protects the skin from free radicals and damage caused by ultraviolet radiation. Also, it suppresses the activity of tyrosinase, which is involved in melanin production. Ascorbyl glucoside diminishes pigmented spots and corrects uneven tone.

Retinyl palmitate (vitamin A) is a stabilized form of retinol (vitamin A). In combination with vitamins E and C, the component smooths and improves skin texture, prevents pigmented spots and wrinkles as it promotes the synthesis of collagen and glycosaminoglycans that support elasticity and the necessary level of water in the skin.

Pantenol (provitamin B5) hydrates, retains moisture and softens the skin.

Tocopherol (vitamin E) stimulates the synthesis of collagen and makes wrinkles less noticeable, prevents pigmentation, slows down age-related loosening of the skin. Tocopherol locks in mois- ture and tonifies the skin, boosts tissue regeneration and prevents the formation of post-acne scars. Also, vitamin E helps strengthen capillary walls, thus improving the condition of couperose skin and reducing redness.

Centella asiatica extract stimulates the production of collagen types I and III, that play a key role in improving skin elasticity and reducing fine lines.

The component promotes skin regeneration, helps prevent scarring and pigmentation.

Sodium acetylated hyaluronate, compared to common hyaluronic acid, hydrates skin surface over a longer period of time and improves skin elasticity.

Ceramides are natural lipids, the main structural components of skin’s lipid barrier. Together with other lipids, such as cholesterol and fatty acids, ceramides prevent transepidermal moisture loss, that can lead to dryness and dehydration of the skin. Also, ceramides act as a barrier that works to protect the skin against the penetration of bacteria and impurities from outside. The level of ceramides in the stratum corneum of the skin decreases with age, and this is one of the reasons causing the skin to dry out.

Use the cream in the morning and (or) in the evening, after cleansing your skin and applying lotion.

Take a small amount of the cream and, using a light patting motion, spread it evenly over the face and neck, working down to the collarbone area.
