- Trehalose is mainly known for its ability to protect proteins and other biomolecules against stressful conditions: very high and very low temperatures, under dehydration and osmotic stress. Increases the hydration level of the epidermis. Exhibits photoprotective properties. - Macrocystis pyrifera algae extract rich in oligosaccharides. When used as a cosmetic ingredient, it forms a hygroscopic film on the surface of the skin, which gives a tightening and lifting sensation. Algae extracts and substances derived from them have been valued ingredients in cosmetic formulations for years. In recent years, attention has turned to the oligopolysaccharides present in algae, which exhibit a number of interesting properties, including moisturising and skin-brightening effects. - Zingerone acetate - Evens out skin tone, reduces redness and UV and free radical damage. This little-known but very powerful antioxidant is an innovative substance that protects melanocytes from pUVA-induced DNA mutations. It shows greater antioxidant potential than vitamin E and resveratrol. - Saccharide isomerate - A substance with high affinity for the cells of the stratum corneum. This means that its composition and structure is similar to that of the intercellular cement, so this ingredient increases hydration levels and softens and smoothens the epidermis. - Inulin - A prebiotic that comprehensively supports the correct balance of the skin's microbiota, which is the first line of defence against negative external environmental factors. Soothes irritations.
