OKINACEA®
OKINACEA® is a marine agent that combines Caulerpa lentilifera, known as Green Caviar or Sea grape, with hydrolyzed rice It targets both the dermal-epidermal junction and the dermis to firm the skin and therefore delaying the major signs of skin aging. Green caviar is a delicacy in Okinawa, the Japanese Island of centenarians. The efficacy of OKINACEA® has been demonstrated by several ex vivo and in vitro studies. This product strengthens the DEJ functionality by stimulating both laminin-5 and collagen IV, therefore it improves skin cohesion and boosts exchanges between the epidermis and dermis. At the dermis level, it revitalizes the network by increasing the synthesis of GAGs and Type I collagen, thus making the skin firmer and helping to return volume and structure to the tissues. Clinical studies demonstrate the reduction of skin roughness and anti-wrinkle activity. OKINACEA® is used in all anti-aging products.

BRONZ'ALG®
BRONZ'ALG® is a patented combination of the alga Bifurcaria bifurcata with acetyl-tyrosine. It facilitates melanin synthesis while protecting against UVA/UVB-induced damage. It accelerates tanning and revives dull skin. Bifurcaria bifurcata contains interesting chemicals, notably several oligomers of phloroglucinol, known for their biological properties. BRONZ'ALG® helps to regulate the major genes of melanogenesis pathways, notably MITF factor and melanogenic enzymes TYR and TYRP-1 implicated in melanin formation, all that makes more compelling its pro-pigmenting capability. It facilitates the melanin synthesis in melanocytes and improves the interactions melanocytes-keratinocytes. In addition, it promotes skin pigmentation independently to sun exposure. According to clinical studies, BRONZ'ALG® accelerates tanning and revives dull skin for a healthy glowing complexion. It guarantees potent skin protection against free radicals and both UVA and UVB radiations, that helps maintain a harmonious tan and improve the skin’s own natural UV protection.
