Rapeseed Oil

CATEGORY

WHAT IT DOES

Hydrogenated rapeseed oil, also knowns as canola oil, works as an emollient and occlusive. As a nourishing plant oil, its antioxidants (especially a compound known as sinapinic acid and vitamin E) plus polyunsaturated fatty acids such as the highly stable omega-9 erucic acid help ensure skin looks healthy and younger by preventing water loss, repairing skin's surface, and bolstering skin's supply of antioxidants.

Vegetable Polyglyceride

CATEGORY

WHAT IT DOES

Vegetable-derived Omega-3,-6, 9- polyglyceride provide crucial hydration while locking in moisture; they assist with extending cell life and skin regeneration. In turn, skin appears plumper, and wrinkles are slower to develop and deepen. 
Also, because omega fatty acids have excellent anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, they help reduce irritation and protect your skin from environmental factors.

WHAT IT DOES

Hydroxypropyl Cyclodextrin is a biomimetic polysaccharide that helps active ingredients penetrate the skin more effectively, making them more potent. Hydroxypropyl cyclodextrin is a cyclic molecular structure composed of multiple glucose molecules that has been modified to possess hydrophobic or water-repellent properties. This allows hydroxypropyl cyclodextrin to be used as an active ingredient in cosmetic products to enhance their effectiveness. It  helps increase the stability of sensitive active ingredients in cosmetic products. As a result, the products retain their efficacy for longer and can fully deliver their intended effects. Hydroxypropyl cyclodextrin can improve the skin barrier, thereby retaining moisture in the skin. This helps keep the skin hydrated and protected from external factors. Another advantage of hydroxypropyl cyclodextrin is its ability to enhance the penetration of active ingredients into the skin. By using hydroxypropyl cyclodextrin, active ingredients can penetrate deeper into the skin, thereby intensifying their effects.

Hexapeptide-8 is a synthetically acetylated neuropeptide with strong anti-aging properties: A neurotransmitter-inhibiting peptide that reduces the appearance of wrinkles by preventing muscle contractions, similar to Botox. It can penetrate deeply and achieve more intensive effectiveness in smoothing expression lines. The peptide promotes the production of collagen and elastin, two important proteins that can lead to firmer and more elastic skin.

Hexapeptide-11 a medium sized cell signaling molecule also called Acidic Fibroblast Growth Factor. As its name suggests, it can stimulate the growth and proliferation of fibroblast cells (VIP cells that produce among other things collagen). It also stimulates skin regeneration, wound healing and collagen and elastin synthesis, that have a positive impact on the skin's elasticity and firmness.

It also activates the hyaluronansynthesis.

Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid,  with a molecular weight of 50 kDa, is a modified form of hyaluronic acid that has been broken down into smaller molecules. It provides an extremly deep hydration to your skin, as the smaller molecules can penetrate your skin more easily than regular hyaluronic acid. Furthermore, it improves skin elasticity, reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and thus promotes a plump more youthful complexion.

Hymagic™-4D is a trademarked ingredient that provides intense hydration to your skin. It's a combination of four different types of hyaluronic acid that work together to deeply penetrate your skin and provide long-lasting moisture. The combination has 4 different molecular sizes: Crosslinked HYALURONSÄURE with >3 MDa, High Molecular Weight HYALURONSÄURE with 1,0-1,8 MDa, Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate with 30 kDa and Mini hyaluronic acid Hydrolyzed Sodium Hyaluronate  <10 kDa. The combination of the four kinds of hyaluronic acid weights with different properties, can build up and form a three-dimensional network and accurately target the different layers of your skin, to replenish water from the outside and hold water from the inside.That way, your skin is moisturized and hydrated completely and improves in elasticity directly from within. Additionally, the ingredient can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and thus promote a more youthful complexion.

WHAT IT DOES

Hyaluronic acid, with a molecular weight of 1500-1800 kDa, is a polysaccharide and a natural component of the skin. High-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid lies as a fine film on the skin and effectively binds moisture in the stratum corneum and prevents the skin's own water from evaporating too quickly, thus acting as a moisturizer. Its effective moisture-binding effect results from the fact that it releases its hydrate mantle only after several hours and thus acts over a long period of time. Provides a visually skin-tightening and smoothing effect, this results from the evaporation of water and the resulting slight tightening of the gel film on the skin.
