LIFTING HYDRO MASK

is a polysaccharide and a natural component of connective tissue. It has a skin-tightening and smoothing effect. We only use hyaluronic acid that has been produced using biotechnology. Dissolved in water, hyaluronic acid forms a gel-like structure that lies on the skin as a thin film and bonds with the skin's ceramides via hydrogen bonds. In this way, hyaluronic acid can bind very large amounts of water in the stratum corneum and only releases it after several hours – thus creating a hydrating depot effect. With increasing age, the body's own production of hyaluronic acid steadily decreases. The skin loses its elasticity, and lines and wrinkles form. Hyaluronic acid can balance or reduce these skin changes.

is an oily extract from the fruits of the saw palmetto (Serenoa serrulata), native to coastal Florida. The extract has anti-inflammatory and anti-edematous effects.

are fruit acids that chemically belong to the alpha hydroxy acid family. Today known by the abbreviation "AHA", they have been used in cosmetics for centuries. Only recent developments have made their mode of action clear. Depending on the concentration, AHAs cause a mild to strong exfoliation of the skin and, by stimulating the deeper layers of the skin, accelerate regeneration. Unfortunately, this effectiveness is associated with a high potential for irritation. We use the skin-friendly salt form of malic acid, a fruit acid that also plays an important role in the skin's natural metabolism. To ensure that it is available to the skin and can unfold its effectiveness, it is encapsulated in liposomes made from soy lecithin.
Clinical studies prove the superior effectiveness of AHA liposomes:
Increase in skin moisture by approximately 35%
Skin smoothing by approx. 25%
Reduction in the number of wrinkles by approximately 7%
AHA liposomes are the enhanced active principle of AHAs at physiological skin pH without irritation.

is the clear, gently extracted extract from the fleshy leaves of the aloe vera plant (Aloe barbadensis). It is rich in vitamins, amino acids, polysaccharides, mineral salts, proteins, and enzymes. The extract is hydroactive, soothes skin irritations, and promotes a fresh complexion.

from the evergreen deciduous tree (Quercus suber), native to the western Mediterranean. The suberin-containing extract is extracted from the thick cork layer of the bark. Suberin forms a microcrystalline network on the skin. This immediately tightens and smooths the skin.

is a colorless, odorless oily liquid derived from olive oil. Squalane, in its unsaturated form (squalene), is an essential component of the skin's natural hydrolipid film and is therefore particularly skin-friendly. We use the saturated form, which is resistant to oxidation and heat. Squalane has moisturizing properties, spreads easily, and provides a silky skin feel. Because of its rapid absorption, it acts as a guide for other active ingredients to penetrate the skin.

As a powerful antioxidant, it provides active cell protection, has been proven to increase skin moisture levels and smooth the skin's texture.

It is a component of the skin's own Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF) and has an effective hydrating effect. It has excellent moisturizing properties while simultaneously stabilizing the skin's barrier function. We use plant-based glycerin.

improves the water-binding capacity of the skin and is also characterized by antimicrobial
Properties.
