2x hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid occurs in human and animal connective tissue as well as in bodily fluids. Today it is produced biotechnologically. In combination with water, hyaluronic acid leaves a viscoelastic, non-sticky and invisible film on the skin. This regulates the skin's moisture balance. Because of this strong moisture retention, the skin appears significantly smoother and plumper. Low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid: provides immediate and lasting hydration (direct effect) High-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid: prevents moisture loss through surface action

apple stem cell extract

As we age and due to environmental and stress factors, the number and activity of skin stem cells decreases. As a result, the skin can lose its ability to regenerate and age faster. To counteract this process, it is important to specifically protect and support skin stem cells.Thanks to modern cell culture techniques it is now possible to cultivate cells from rarer and endangered plant species. The apple stem cell extract, also known by the name Phyto CellTech™, provides valuable nutrients that can promote the viability and health of human skin stem cells. In doing so, they help counteract premature skin aging.

triple hyaluronic acid

1. High-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid The high-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid acts on the surface, forming a moisture film there and instantly smoothing the skin. 2. Low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid Low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid penetrates deeper into the skin than high-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid. It provides intensive moisture there and plumps the skin from within. 3. Cross-linked hyaluronic acid Cross-linked hyaluronic acid is particularly stable. It retains moisture for a long time and provides lasting smoothing. This produces an immediate effect and at the same time a long-term effect for plump, hydrated skin.
