RETINOL (0.2%)

The classic form of vitamin A, retinol is proven to:

Increase proliferation (cell turnover) for a smoother, refined skin surface.

Increase collagen synthesis and prevent the breakdown of collagen for a plumper, more youthful-looking skin.

Decrease melanin production, targeting hyper pigmentation for a more even skin tone.

Reduce sebum production to minimise blemish formation.

Stimulate glycosaminoglycans (GAGS) to normalise moisture levels within the skin.

Thicken the epidermis for a plumber skin appearance.

TIME RELEASE TECHNOLOGY (POLYMER ENCAPSULATION)

To avoid irritation and ensure vitamin A is released in a controlled manor in the skin, retinol is encapsulated in a polymer shell to help stabilise the retinol molecule and deliver it slowly into the skin, feeding and nourishing over a six hour period.

The encapsulation slowly breaks down when massaged into skin and gently releases the vitamin A.

DRAGON FRUIT EXTRACT

Dragon fruit provides exceptionally high levels of antioxidants to protect the skin and is bursting with natural sugars for firming and toning the skin. Dragon fruit has even been studied for its wound healing properties, research shows it is able to enhance the natural skin regenerative process for a smoother, calmer and softer complexion.

HYALURONIC ACID

One of the major components of our natural extracellular matrix, helping to maintaining a firm and supple complexion.

With a unique ability to attract and retain more than 1,000 times its own weight in water, hyaluronic acid can draw moisture from the surrounding atmosphere and lower skin layers to the top levels of the epidermis.

VITAMIN E

A lipid-soluble antioxidant, has the ability to quench free radicals. It can protect the skin cell membranes, which are made up of lipids and are often under attack from free radical oxidation helping to combat the free radicals attack by giving up one of its own electrons.
