Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic Acid is a naturally occurring biopolymer, it is a highly effective humectant i.e. an ingredient that holds moisture. HA can hold up to 1000 times its weight in water which helps keep the skin smooth and plump. The content of hyaluronic acid in the skin decreases with age, which may contribute to the development of fine lines and wrinkles.
HA also supports the formation and maintenance of collagen, an important connective tissue. Collagen degradation is believed to cause a decrease in skin tone and elasticity.
Camellia Oleifera (Camellia) Seed Oil
Camellia Oil is very high in Oleic acid (it has the highest concentration of all natural oils) and also contains other essential fatty acids such as Omega - 6 Linoleic acid. Oleic acid is deeply penetrating and can permeate into the lower levels of the stratum corneum.
An excellent transdermal carrier of nutrients andbioactive compounds to collagen and elastin.
Seabuckthorn oil (Hippophae Rhamnoides)
This bright orange fruit contains up to 16 times more Vitamin C than kiwifruit, plus flavonoids, Vitamin E, Vitamin A and several other carotones, including beta-carotene, lycopene and zeaxanthin. To these, add essential fatty acids and vitamins B1, B2 and K.
