Key Ingredients: 20% Finnish Peat, Aquaporin G+GG Complex, EVERMAT™ active.

FINNISH PEAT: present for 20%, is a product that develops naturally in the Finnish marshes over hundreds of years. Rich in biologically active substances, with high amounts of humic acid and fulvic acid, it also contains bio-minerals, oligoelements, vitamins, amino acids and fatty acids. Its molecular structure is so fine it penetrates the skin and rejuvenates the cells.

AQUAPORIN G+GG COMPLEX: one of the fundamental processes of life is the transport of water molecules through the superficial layer of the skin by means of a system of channels. The structure of these water channels was defined in the 90s, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2003 and the corresponding proteins were named Aquaporins. The complex consists of highly concentrated glyceryl glucoside for instant and prolonged hydration throughout the day.

EVERMAT™ ACTIVE: compound complex of the extract of protoberberine-rich Enantia Chlorantha, and oleanolic acid. Enantia Chlorantha is an African tree known for its anti-inflammatory and antipyretic properties. The complex regulates the differentiation and proliferation of sebocytes and inhibits 5α-reductase activity leading to a reduction in sebaceous secretion**.
**Results following in vivo testing of men and women with oily skin and enlarged pores. For 28 days a gel with 3% of EVERMAT™ was applied on half face morning and evening. After 28 days:

• 52% of the number of active sebaceous glands (18 panelist
• 49% sebum flow (18 panelist)
• Pore size reduced by 36% (19 panelist)
• 55% shiny skin (22 panelist)

Other active ingredients:
RAW CACAO OIL: has a high oleic acid content and as it has remarkable emollient and nourishing properties, it’s excellent for the nourishment of the skin and also counteracts free radicals by performing an important antioxidant action.

CUPUAÇU BUTTER: also called white cocoa, comes from the seeds of the Amazonian Cupuaçu tree, has moisturising properties, is very easily absorbed, calms and counteracts redness, and supports the skin’s natural barrier.

AVOCADO OIL: thanks to its high content of vitamins A, D and E, the presence of lecithin, potassium, protein, beta-carotene and essential unsaturated fatty acids, avocado oil proves to be a real energizing, anti-aging and toning elixir.

SODIUM PCA: (pyrrolidone carboxylic acid) is an amino acid that is part of the NMF (Natural Moisturizing Factor), but in cosmetology is extracted from sugar cane fermentation and used as a moisturizer and humectant since it has a very high moisturizing power, as well as being non-toxic and non-irritating.

TOCOPHEROL: or vitamin E, is a fat-soluble antioxidant contained in numerous foods, which is useful in reducing skin damage caused by UV rays, as it relieves burning and restores the natural balance of healthy skin. Non-irritating and well tolerated by all skintypes.

VITIS VINIFERA VINE SAP: plant-based liposomal system that encloses and transfers vine lymph, a complex and balanced mix of nutrients, which is a valuable ally in nourishing our skin cells and its microbiota.
