Regeneration booster
Skin regeneration processes work well in young and healthy skin. However, external influences like stress, lack of sleep, and air-conditioned environments slow down the regeneration process.
Mature skin has a decreased regeneration speed due to a slower renewing time of skin cells. The renewing process slows down between the young adult age of 25 and adults over 40.
Regeneration boosters support and speed up the renewal processes. Measurable results can be detected by the increase in skin smoothness and elasticity based on the stimulation of collagen biosynthesis.
Some regeneration boosters activate cell functions, enhance collagen and other structural protein production, and improve the skin condition, thus counteracting the signs of mature skin.Oligopeptide-6 is a biomimetic synthetic peptide that repeats a part of the sequence of Laminin-5 and mimics its action on skin cells. It interacts with integrins and receptors on skin cell surfaces, promoting their adhesion and migration.

Pantethine as an intermediate in the conversion of Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5) to Coenzyme A plays an important role in the metabolism of amino acids, carbohydrates, and lipids. Due to people’s lifestyle changes resulting i. a.
Panthenol is a provitamin of Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), part of the B-complex group, is present in all living cells and is a constituent of coenzyme A. The critical function of this coenzyme is to act as a carrier in acetylation reactions (Krebs cycle).
Panthenyl triacetate is an acetylated derivative of Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic acid or Panthenol), that is more stable against hydrolysis in the product and oil-soluble which enables incorporation in oil-based formulations.
Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic acid) is a precursor of the coenzymes involved in more than 100 different metabolic pathways, including energy metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids, and the synthesis of lipids, neurotransmitters, steroid hormones, porphyrins, and hemoglobin.
Peat Extract is a general term for various natural extracts derived from different types of peat. Peats and their extracts have been used externally in traditional medicine and successfully used for distinct clinical indications.
Pentapeptide-48 is a synthetic peptide with the sequence Thr-Arg-Ser-Glu-Leu that repeats the active part of the Royalactin protein. Royalactin is a protein found in royal jelly and it is responsible for the epigenetic changes in the larvae's DNA, creating the queen bee phenotype.
Phytosan contains proteins, glycoproteins, polysaccharides, protects against light-induced skin aging and UV-induced energy loss, slows down the skin‘s aging process.
Both the needles and shoots of this well-known Norway Spruce (Picea Abies) tree have been used as remedies. A tea made from the needles has been used to heal wounds and ulcers.
In the 16th century, Anise (Pimpinella Anisum) was widely used as a mousetrap bait because mice found it irresistible. Anise has also been used to stimulate digestion and as an expectorant to relieve nausea and colic in babies.
Pomegranates promote the regeneration of cells in the two most important layers of healthy skin, the epidermis and dermis.
Historically, Almonds (Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis) were used to flavor foods, sweets, jams, cough syrups, and almond oil. They were also used to adorn the body and religious buildings and were carried during religious celebrations.
Wild cherry (Prunus serotina) bark is considered to have astringent, tonic, expectorant, and sedative properties. It has been used to treat bronchitis, whooping cough, consumption, and dyspepsia.
Prunus Serotina Bark Extract has also been used as a healing agent for cuts and sores.
Punica Granatum Sterols is derived from pomegranate seed oil by first heat sterilizing it and then fractionating to isolate the fraction rich in sterols. It is a white to light yellow waxy paste with a characteristic odor.
Pyridoxine Dipalmitate (Vitamin B6 Dipalmitate) is a white or similar white crystal or crystalline powder; odorless. It can be easily dissolved in oil, slightly dissolved in ethanol by hot, and cannot be dissolved in water.
Retinyl Acetate is a vitamin A ester with acetic acid, an active ingredient for skin and oral care applications. It is an oily yellow liquid at room temperature (it may contain some crystals of vitamin A acetate) with a mild odor.
Retinyl Palmitate is a stable form of vitamin A that acts as a skin normalizer, this nutrient helps remind the cells of what they "did" when they were young. In addition, it nourishes the skin when applied topically.
Rooibos (Aspalathus Linearis) leafs wild-harvested in the Cederberg region (a small area in South Africa) are potent antioxidants, high in polyphenols and rich in minerals.
Rosa Canina oil softens skin and is high in essential fatty acids. It helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and repairs damaged skin.
Rosmarinus Officinalis speeds up cell renewal rate, eliminates acne and impurities, and stimulates dermal micro-circulation, lessening damaged capillaries and varicose veins.
