Ingredient callouts

  • A good concentration of Niacinamide (3.00% - 3.70%). Niacinamide is a well-studied multi-tasking active. It is stable, and can work well in almost any hydrating formulation. There is solid evidence that Niacinamide can help support skin barrier, regulate oil production and reduce acne and clogged pores. It also helps to fight photodamage and improve the skin tone, reducing pigmentation marks.
  • Ceramides (phytosphingosine 0.50% - 0.70%, ceramide ap 0.35% - 0.65%, ceramide as 0.35% - 0.65%, ceramide np 0.45% - 0.70%, ceramide ns 0.40% - 0.65% and ceramide eop 0.40% - 0.65%). Ceramides are an important part of our natural skin barrier. The Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or come from plants. They help soften the skin and can help "fill the gaps" in the skin barrier, keeping the skin hydrated and resilient for longer.
  • Peptides (dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate 0.30% - 0.55%, acetyl tetrapeptide-5 0.30% - 0.55%, acetyl octapeptide-3 0.30% - 0.55%, dipeptide-2 0.30% - 0.55%, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 0.30% - 0.55%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.30% - 0.55% and copper tripeptide-1 0.30% - 0.60%). Peptides are a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of aminoacids. Our skin produces Peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of Peptides is, but it is very likely that theynare helpful. Peptides might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way.
  • Adenosine 0.35% - 0.65%. It is a compound that in involved in many biological processes inside the skin cells. According one high-quality clinical trial, topical Adenosine in low concentrations can somewhat help improve "deep wrinkles" - the wrinkles that appear with age in places where our faces are most dynamic (for example, on the forehead or in the corners of the eyes).
  • Actives derived from an extract of the Centella Asiatica plant (also known as Gotu Kola) - madecassoside 0.35% - 0.65% The Centella Asiatica Actives help strengthen and restore the skin barrier, decrease inflammation in skin and neutralize free radicals. They also can help to reduce scarring. The good news is that these actives work even in low concentrations.
  • Humectants (glyceryl acrylate/acrylic acid copolymer 0.30% - 0.55%, sodium hyaluronate 0.35% - 0.60%, alanine 0.35% - 0.60%, glycine 0.35% - 0.60%, glutamic acid 0.35% - 0.60%, aspartic acid 0.35% - 0.60%, arginine 0.30% - 0.60%, histidine 0.35% - 0.60%, panthenol 0.30% - 0.55%, acetyl tetrapeptide-5 0.30% - 0.55%, acetyl octapeptide-3 0.30% - 0.55%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.30% - 0.55% and glycerin 4.80% - 5.90%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
