Sodium Hyaluronate – Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring component found in the extracellular matrix in body tissues, especially those of the face. As we age, we lose HA causing the extracellular matrix to become dehydrated, leading to surface roughness, flaking and fine lines. Wrinkles are formed from the loss of three important components in the skin: collagen, hyaluronic acid, and elastin. Thanks to its super-sized hydrating properties, HA will result in smoother, softer skin with decreased wrinkles and an all-around fuller appearance. It helps your skin bring and absorb water more effectively, reduces trans-epidermal water loss and transforms the dermis layer of your skin into a super-sponge for your face. By maintaining and attracting water within the extracellular matrix, it hydrates the skin, increases its volume and density and stabilizes the intercellular skin matrix—the glue that holds your face together – to provide a better defense against environmental assaults and other aging effects.

Citric acid is one of a group of ingredients known as alpha hydroxy acids that inhibit the growth of microorganisms, enhance the appearance of dry, damaged skin by reducing flaking and restoring suppleness and help to slow the loss of water from the skin by forming a barrier on the skin's surface. Gentle exfoliation in this delicate eye area encourages cell turnover. Retinyl palmitate is a less irritating form of retinol (vitamin A). It facilitates communication between cells, encouraging aging cells to continue their renewal process, and regenerate collagen and elastin to prevent the appearance of aging skin, wrinkles, and fine lines. Retinyl palmitate is an exfoliator and its effect of repeatedly shedding the upper dermal layer encourages the skin to produce new cells.

Albizia Julibrissin Bark Extract and Actiphyte of Eyebright are plant-based antioxidants that support the upper eyelid and help to reduce the appearance of fine lines, dark circles and puffiness. Albizia Julibrissin Bark Extract has been clinically researched and found to protect, strengthen and improve dermal properties by stimulating the detoxifying system, reducing capillary leakages and accumulation of glycotoxic pigments responsible for uneven coloration and fatigue appearance.

Leucidal Liquid SF is a natural probioitic-based ingredient created by the fermentation of Lactobacillus. Probiotics help to maintain the integrity of the microbiome; the skin’s protective barrier. They restrict the growth of microorganisms by acidifying the environment. Tocopheryl (vitamin E) is a natural, anti-aging, moisturizing skin conditioner and antioxidant. Its clinically substantiated benefits include enhancing the efficacy of active sunscreen ingredients, reducing the formation of free radicals from exposure to UV rays, promoting the healing process, strengthening the skin's barrier function, protecting the skin barrier's lipid balance, and reducing trans-epidermal water loss. Glycerine Soja (Soybean) Oil is obtained from soybeans and has a small molecular structure allowing it to penetrate the top most layer of the epidermis. Inside the skin structure, it stimulates the synthesis of elastin, collagen and other proteins that are key to cell growth and regeneration. Soy is rich in essential fatty acids, vitamin E, lecithin and antioxidants that nourish the skin an improve overall skin tone, texture and appearance.

Aloe Vera and Green Tea Extract are botanicals known as nature’s skin soothers. They condition, hydrate and soothe inflamed, irritated or sun-exposed skin and improves skin micro-relief.
